Looks awesome, I'm trying to do something similar. Just few questions tho, are those mount 3D printed? ABS or PLA? And how have they been holding so far?

Also what's the approximate length of that wildboar drive shaft you use?

It’s PETG, been holding up fine. Front driveshaft’s pretty short… less than 2” if I remember correctly

Thanks, do you bash or mostly just for crawling? Printed mine with ABS and it broke after few bashing sessions lol.

I use mine mostly for crawling. So no issues here yet.

I originally printed my trans adapters through Shapeways when I was selling them. Their nylon and SLS process is far superior to FDM prints in just about any material. Cool to see a few guys still playing with the Twin platform though. Keep rockin it fellas!

Thought about getting those that's being sold on Shapeways but shipping + taxes cost 3x of the actual part itself (to where I'm at). I figured I'm just gonna design my own and get it printed at a local printing shop, was pretty surprised that whole thing cost 1/3 of what's being sold on Shapeway lol.

Tbh I wanted an Axial Yeti XL/Score (cuz it shares lots of parts with the wraith/scx10 which is much easier to find here) but nobody sells it here/have it up for sale. My TH is a used unit and that took me months to find a decent one.

I think eventually, I'm gonna build this to a hybrid TH front end + SCX10 rear end along with the chassis cuz majority of the parts are coming from China (the clone TH?) and US.
