OH NO back at it 3.5 AGENT bodied

[mustangboy_347]

So I got some practice time on the rig yesterday and wow what a different rig it is ....

I have had so much help putting this rig together that I would like to say thanks to a few people

1- EddieO for the most ridiculous motors I have ever ran and for the team support
2- Szczerba for the advice that was needed and for taking the time to make
me the links I needed
3- Stick King for the help working out all the electronic issues i had along the
way.....Thanks Fam "thumbsup"

I ran the rig on 4s with these motors it had a very very smooth low end and when needed the punch was there definitely , 450mah 4s PURE POWER pack from EddieO ran for over 6 mins of really hard abuse with no lag or heat issues .... I have to work on some link geometry for the rig some places it feels that it can pull any line off and then in some it just struggled and I need to try different shocks so I made the call to SUPER SHAFTY for the 3.5 velvet shock

2 micro sidewinders , you can run them for about 6 minutes but wouldn't go any further "thumbsup"... because things could get bad ,very bad
