Busted mine out after over a year of hibernation. I had to overcome a stone dead LiPo, but it is better now.

Since I started working for AMain remotely the car bug bit me again. New shocks, Proline Body and Rear Cage and the stubby bumper is on the way.

^^Nice.
Is that the Proline truggy rear cage? I'm looking close at getting one, wondered how you liked it.
I've done quite a few custom creations with the stock ascender ones...

Yep that's the cage from proline. I like it. Suits the truck nicely. I haven't figured out how to secure it yet but I'll eventually get to it

Got my K10 ready for a test drive! After finishing up the changes I had started a while ago.
Time to test all the GCMracing goodies and other goodies.

Test run outside done.
List of needed improvements is as follows.
1. Work out why I have a pogo sticks amount of travel.
2. Let there be suspension articulation!
3. 3s lipo over 2s.

Thats the list.

Went back to the 90mm high lift shocks. And have been debating on whether a axle swap to the new AR45 still axle from axial would work on the K10 for more gear down. And look at getting +3mm offset hexs to clear the rod ends from rubbing the 1.9 K02's. Suspension is now articulating and not bouncing like a pogo sticks. Have not ran it on 3s long enough for a temp reading but it gave me back some wheel speed. Also with the GCMracing setup I got the drive shafts to counter rotate and it helped to combat torque twist.
