Get the rear shocks more vertical or slightly leaned forward.

Wait, is that a velineon in a scaler? I'm all for brushless power/speed, but I've seen how bad that motor cogs crawling...should be a fun challenge to drive!

I have a Wraith w/ a 4600kV castle 4 pole for sale if you want to haul ass in something that is somewhat scale yet made to handle speed a little bit better than an SCX10 chassis. It is unsensored too, but has way better low end resolution than the velineon.

How much? Wouldn't mind the roller for project larger hummer.

I am really looking to sell it whole, I had considered doing it as a roller but I don't want to mess around with selling all the parts. I have someone coming to look at it Saturday, and if it doesn't sell by next week it is going on Ebay. If you want to buy the whole thing shoot me a PM and I can give you the low down on it. It's a RTR base with metal gears, knuckles, hubs, links etc to help it survive the speed/power. Clocked it at 24mph on 3s with stock gearing (I have since geared it down, that is too fast). Would make a killer FOFF rig (which was my plan) but since I am moving I need to dump it.

We must have different definitions of crawling and low speed control then. LOLZ!

My 4 pole sucks when it's uncensored, I'm not into fairy tales. I don't want to hear dubstep when I pull the trigger. That system is meant for a basher.

If I was you I'd finish off the frame without the frame rails, mount everything to the tube, and give it rear steer. That's a big commitment and you got a looooooong way to go
