I'm finally getting around to posting info/pics/video on my super.
Here are the the stats:
17" stick from tcs
65t axiom motors with 8t pinions
(2) older style tazer esc's (no delay going in to reverse)
(2) hitec 5995 digital servos
mpi 6V voltage regulator
mpi voltage indicator
spektrum dx-7 radio
2 cell 2200 lipos
Moab XL's on proline cheyennes (stock width)
integy 23mm adapters with 1" offset
rcp aluminum diff spools
mechanical switch to shut down rear motor and engage brake (shorted motor wires)
modified Rocktagon body from www.majesticrc.com
Chris from majestic rc has designed these bodies for tmax/savages. We are trying to talk him in to narrowing them for the crawler market. If you would be interested drop him an email. I had to narrow mine 1.5 inches to clear everything. Fortunately he was nice enough to print me out some awesome vinyl to cover the seam.
What do you guys think?

Maybe he could make one thats 15in Long and 5in Wide. And add more Tube work into the deisgn. Also make them look more like a real Tube chassis.

I emailed majectic about the body

Unless this Body gets a ton of attention they are not going to fork up the $3k to do another mold.
