Default •••The Nomad•••

Caught the U4 bug and decided to pull my old SC8 out of the mothballs and convert it to a U4 rig.

Ordered up the following parts.
Associated Nomad Cage, Body Panels, and Bumpers
Axial SMT Interior. (In route)
ZD Racing Truggy Shocks
2.2 Pro Line Hyrax Tires (G
Pro Line 2.2 Closed Cell Foams
Moto Worxs Racing 2.2 Beadlock Wheels w/ 17mm Hex
Ripper 2000KV motor
Hobbywing 150Amp ESC.

Some of my remedial painting skills and this is the result!

Can’t wait to rip it! 😎

I like the proportions of that! And the paint scheme as well.

That looks fantastic! Love the stance - looks like it means business.

Thanks, I used some 25mm extended hexs so that the inner portion of the 2.2 wheel would clear the lower A arm and it really did give it great proportions.

Paint is ok. I’m no painter by any stretch of the imagination!🤣
