seen this rig today in person. Very nice fab work. The upper links that I thought would bind looked fine in person. Deffinitely no binding with 87* of articulation.

awesome balance as well. can't wait to compete against it!

I ripped apart a big a$$ revo shaft with a stealth/bl system, twisted the yoke and broke the drive pin, trans still works killer after yoke replacement, the 1/8 scale buggy cvd's and hubs with the stealth were to much for the revo shaft, STEALTH ROCKS!!!!! period

So far I am loving it.. Its well ballenced, does need some weights in the tires.. Its under 4.5lb loaded and so even with the softest springs (mine are cut 2 coils) it still lifts a tire going up.. But its able to touch the rear tires when you go strait up a wall. That is becasue the weight is so low..

Wheel base is 12.375 and there is NO such thing as binding.. Not sure of price for the spool or chasis yet.. Still have some testing to complete and one more prototype before its a production ready peice..

The average ride height is 2.25" under the skid but it has a ton of droop.. So with the weight off of it it has 3.25" of clearence.... here some today pics...

I am looking at spooling up some stealth trannies lately as well. I had a T4 sitting around, so off the tranny came. They have great mesh and pretty wide gears too. I would like to see the motor that blows one up. They have a great slipper clutch too. So much nicer with greater adjustability than the pede slipper.
