Hello all and forgive me if this post seems a bit "done before." I'm new to the forum and have been reading thread after thread about choosing the right setup for your wraith and I'm looking for a little bit of guidance. I'm new to RC and really pumped about getting into all aspects of it including the build...So I've ordered a Wraith Kit.
I'm looking to build a decent crawler with "Ok" speed. Not looking for a rocket ship so to speak at least not right now...I figure it probably would be best to not inadvertently launch my Wraith into a tree smashing it to pieces on my first run anyway
The aim is to build it so that I can crawl decent but still be able to rip around a bit, trail with it and have some fun. Eventually I may look at adding the AX2 2-Speed transmission setup.
With that being said below is a list of the setup I've chosen to start with (without taking out a bank loan! lol) :
-HiTec 7954SH Servo (Already ordered - Ebay for $78 new)
http://www.ebay.ca/itm/380316671471?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649
-CC BEC
-Tekin 35T HD Brushed Crawler Motor
-Tekin FXR ESC
-FlySky FS GT3C Tx/Rx
*Suggestions for battery / charger are welcome! I will be relocating the battery to the front. Thinking 2s Lipo around 5000mah.
Other than steering links I'll probably hold off on replacing anything else until parts start to break. I would appreciate any input or suggestions you may have!
