Well...back in January I bought the RTR Yeti RR. It was a blast and I had fun driving it. Then the TT caught my eye at a local track and I had to have one of those...so I got the TT. A few months in I decided to sell them both and go back to my first love, the Stampede VXL 4x4. Then I missed the TT so I bought another one. Now I miss the RR. So...I made the rash decision again, to sell the Stampede and the TT and buy a RR Kit because I want all of the upgrades and I want to put in a little quicker motor. I can now buy the retro TT body and some wheels and tires and I can go back to the TT whenever I want anyway. So this was the way to go IMO.
Yes, I could have went and just bought the parts to convert the TT into a RR and get all of the motor/esc upgrades I wanted, but decided I wanted to actually build it from scratch. So sold the other two cars and had more than enough money to buy the Kit and everything I needed. And here is what I went with as far as upgrades and electronics go:
Hobbywing SCT Pro ESC
Hobbywing 3656SD Black Edition 4000kv Sensored Motor
Tactic TSX57 (higher end stock w/ more torque)
Tactic TTX300 TX w/ Tactic TR25 RX (stock)
Crawler Innovations Deuces Wild Single Stage Foam
MIP Rear Drive Shaft
Tamiya PS46 Purple/Green Irredecent Color Shift Paint
SPC Racing 4300mah 40C 3S Batteries
Still a pretty basic build, and I haven't run it out in the street/dirt yet, so not sure how the motor combo will work out on 3S which is all I run. It may be a bit fast, so I might have to gear down ,but I don't want to overspeed the motor. Going w/ the stock 16T and the spur so we'll see in a few hours when I get a chance to run it a bit. Got my temp gun to be safe.
