Wraith.......by DTP *Now with VP Disc brakes*

[DISTURBIN' tha PEACE]

Here it is!!!

When the announcement of the Wraith RTR came & preorders started, I jumped on with a LHS. Next thing I did was order some custom skins by freq-e-tag. Well, my skins cam & my LHS's wraiths did not. So I decided to wait for the kit version, glad I did.

I'm lucky enough to have some fantastic family members that knew exactly what I wanted for christmas, they pooled their $$ & got me a kit.

I'll spare all the assembly pics, we've all seen a kit build. Here are just some with parts I thought were mandatory from the get go & some need for the motor I'm running.

These are a must.

As are these.

Under the dust cover is a duratrax evader 32p 56t spur & novak 14t pinion.

Finished build

Hitech 5955 steering servo
CC MMP
CC BEC
Honcho lights
DNA Thrashers berg offset
Other than those, all stock build.

So far this thing has been a blast! More to come....

That and the DNA Thrashers with Berg offset! "thumbsup" Love those narrow inset wheels! 1" wide? Are you using Axial Wraith wheel hexes?

Thanks, I actually wanted it black, go figure. So when I sprayed it with the can I had, it only splattered. oh well, back it with white. Not bad I say.:ror:

Really like how you got the interior. Looks different also like your skins.

Re: Wraith.......by DTP

Not getting any interference with the narrow wheels and berg offset? Could you show some pictures of the knuckle area? Good looking wrap!

VP knuckles w/stock arms clear fine.

Here's the beat I have now. I'll get a better one soon.

Re: Wraith.......by DTP

Well, blew my lockers. No surprise with this motor, I knew it was a mater of time. Also found a vid of the very first run, trying to upload it now.

Ring & pinion also took a beating.

I have some U/D grears & Highlandcrawlers no slop lockers, but can not drill threw the hardened ring gear. Also have some hot racing lockers I might put in for now.
