Holy S#%t....:eek: Have y'all seen the front bumpers team integy sells for the scx10? Im having a hard time not getting one. They also have complete scx10 rollers with all integy shit on em. Be sweet for a shelf queen. Got em in black, green, gun metal, and 3 silver models. Im wanting to make my own front bumper. Thats the only thing stopping me from getting one.

I'm taking leave for the 23rd-25th

Who wants to meet up that saturday prior to get rid of the overgrowth and set up a course? I'm bringing water and "refreshments"

Items needed:
1. Cooler (water, "refreshments") -MIKO
2. Shovel, gardening tools
3. RADIO, boombox. Anything loud
4. Wheel barrel, or somebody with a bed liner
5.


People attending the Majestic Course Build:
1. Miko
2.
3.
4.
5.

In case of rain I have 4 goretex parkas, and waterproof chem gear. The rain can only make the course better

I can make it out on Sunday but, I'm not sure about Saturday. Kind of hard to get away for two days for RC stuff. But let me see what I can do.

Tsl Boggers are now mounted on Gear Head 1.9 sixers. I added the Rc4wd Yota scale manual locking aluminum hubs, and Locked Up Rc's M2 Acorn nuts. Man im really loving the look of these.

Hey guys so I am working on my rig tonight and out of nowhere I stay having second thoughts about party of the overhaul. In the picture below you can see I have the R2 with dig rc4wd tranny sitting on the rc4wd scx10 R2 conversion plate. I had the tranny sitting around from the 56 ford/trailfinder. I try to stay in the middle of the road with scale vs performance. I have been planning to run the R2 backwards to get the 2wd/4wd option. In the end I know its my rig and my decision but I guess I just wanted to see what y'all think. Its a tough tranny . Steel gears aluminum housing. The only thing bad I could say about it is that being all metal/aluminum its a little noisy. Also running a extra servo is a bit of a burden. Idk...

Hey Nate, I think the trans is a great idea. I would mount the motor upfront, run two 2S packs in series and mount them on each of the rock guards. Then you can mount the electronics between the motor and the front bumper or right on top of the trans since they're light.

I think having the RWD option would make you the king at descending steep grades. I'm not mentioning mounting anything in the rear of the truck because I'm assuming this will be a truggy. Even so the only thing I would mount back there is the ESC just in case it catches fire

Nvm, now I see how the motor mounts up to it. Electronics up front on the old battery tray and you're in business. That transmission is a beast, I fully approve of such action ::thumbsup::
