Those are some MOOOOOOOVING pictures. I like the way it turned out. I also like your cow upper links. I am guessing that is custom cut heat shrink pieces.
 
Hey Bigflex , you got it right 1st time buddy "thumbsup" , glad you like :).



Rickmac - it's a Lonewolf designs skid that's wrapped around the rear axle "thumbsup"
 
How did you set up your DX3E transmitter to work with DIG? I have the same one, i dont want to but the DX3R. There's no 3 position toggle switch on the E... Thanks

Hey bud , think you ought to check the instruction book for your radio , the 3rd channel can be set to 2 postion , 3 position or Linear . In the pic , it's the top right switch that has "AUX" above it ......

Below that are the two trim pots for setting the end points on the 3rd channel , use these to find the 3 positions on your dig "thumbsup";-) .
 
Closeup pics of steering/servo setup???








please8)

Since you said please , here you go bud . I've updated the setup since the last post , the Saxox servo i was using had a meltdown so i bit the bullet and invested in a HiTec 7950TH and made up a new mount for it along with some revisions to the original idea . It now clamps to the axle in one place only with the screws bolting in from above , and has a C shape bracket mounting the servo to the bracket . Have been out for a couple of sessions pulling gates and it works real sweet and makes the most of the Super 300's :mrgreen: .

Anyway , here's a couple of pics.....

Cool build"thumbsup". Thank you for putting my sticker on the first servo you had pictured. I see the web site sticker is still on the axle. Thank you for the love"thumbsup"

Glad you're feeling the love , maannnn :mrgreen: . Have to support those that support us , got your foams onboard and my rear wheels came from you also , cheers Eddie "thumbsup".
I'll drop you a pm fella , i think i need some more foams and a bit of advice , speak to you soon ,
Steve .




what is your wheelbase measurement axle nut to axle nut? Is it within the 2.2 rulebook?


Dude , the wheelbase on this rig was 5mm under the 12.5" max rule , which was within the UK rules this year . Next year we are moving over to the same rules as you run in the good 'ol US .
I see Eddie's sorted you out with links , you won't be disappointed "thumbsup";-)
