Nice build and yes, I enjoy building them more too. Glad I'm not the only one. Modifying also.

Hey thanks guys. This was my second cc01 that I've built so I knew what mods it needed and what mods it didn't. I also did very well on cost too because I parted out the stock motor esc an light kit and got the kit on sale.

Looking to build yeti xl or a savage nitro kit. Unfortunately I think the savage kit may be discontinued. They are out of stock everywhere and the motor that comes in the kit shows discontinued

Nice.

So sounds like you have done this before... do you typically make any profit or at least break even? (not counting labor of course) I'm sure it's easier when it's mint and not used at all.

I got a boat form a guy named vett over at rcg and he pumped them out by the dozen- then would promptly sell- he did not run them only liked to build.

I usually break even, I just did well on this truck. Sometimes I will lose money but I don't care as long as I had fun with it. I like trying new products and models and researching how to make them better.

I like it all!

I wish Yeah made their c-hubs in black because I don't want to stick those blues on my Unimog.
