Hello everyone! Im from Utah and new to the forum and the hobby i've wanted to build a scaler for quite a few years now, I've trolled a few forums for a few months now and I have a few questions.
I almost walked out of the local Hoby Shop 3 times this month with a SCX10 Honcho kit but every time I almost do it i think about how much it is and how put together already it is. If im going to get into this I really want to have to put the damn thing together myself.
So here is the deal I want to try my hand at making my own Scaler, I have the tools and metal working know how. I know I will need a rolling chassis, suspension.
The problem im having is I need a list of all the parts I may need as far as Electronics and Drive train (tranny, x-fer case, motor). I tried searching the forum but couldn't find quite a request like this. I just need a guideline of what i'l need to build a complete rig so I dont miss one of those important required parts to get it going.
I know its n00b and long winded but any help would really be appreciated. Flame on, Thanks!
