The bad part is now I have to spend about 550 more on it. Most of that will wait till after the EB is done, but:

-HH 25T
-HH BR-XL Waterproof
-Hitec HS-7954
-Axial Knuckles, Chubs and Lockouts
-Robinsons
-Over or Underdrive (depending on what I can find)
-Futaba R2104GF
-VP SSZ-11s in black (not sure what offsets)
-Ripsaws
-MIPs

And Make new links

Already have the CC-BEC and the skinz are n their way.
 
come on Neilo talk to us , how does it run? do you like it am i gonna have to get one. ive allready been priming the dream killer. and you do know who will get blamed AGAIN;-)
 
Only run it on 2S, taking it to Il State Beah Park this afternoon and play in the rocks and on the beach. I will be installing a BEC this morning so I can run a 3S. Actually enough room in it for a #s 5000MHr 35C pack I have should be wild.

Drove it around the yard on the dark last night, it climbs over our lawn furniture fine. I will get some side by side pics up today of it, my EB and my JK for comparisons.
 
Ok, this is actually a fairly large truck. Decent room n it, I think I cna get a servo winch in the front end. We will see.

I had to pull the light controller out of the rx box to put the BEC in there. The lights plug into the battery slot so I put the BEC into the 3rd channel. Oddly enough, when you plug in a battery the steering servo comes on and the lights but that is all, they you throw the switch and you get motor. A new Futaba 4CHannel RX will fix that soon enough.

Here is the Wraith next to my JK

And next to my EB

good comparison shot, so overall would you say we have a winner here. and knowing you, what are you gonna change on it besides the normal stuff or is she good to go and just replace as it breaks? it does look like it can take a beating.
 
First of all, the steering is shit, links and servo. I am running on a 3S 35C 5000MHr battery pack with a CC BEC set at 6V and the steering is still shit. The Chubs and Knuckles are also junk, they will be the first to go, followed by a new steering servo, Robinsons Gears, an HH 25T and an HH BR-XL.

That said, this think is a blast, great suspension, nice track, good at slow speeds and high speeds. Waterproofing is great, I had to move the lights controller out of the RX box to put the CC-BEC in it, but is ran fine fully submerged in Lake Michigan.

I have to say that I am probably having too much fun with my iMover too, but live with it. Don't click the links if you don't want to see my playing at editing.

Actually been thinning that herd too. Gotta get rid of a lot of stuff before I retire. I am down to my G&L Tribute Legacy for my electric (though I have my eye on a Taylor Solid Body), a Fender FR50 Resonator for my acoustic (though a Godin 5th Avenue is soon to join the herd) and my Fender Classic. My wife has a Luna Lotus Acoustic Electric and a Fender CN-90 Parlor Acoustic.

The Gibson is gone as is the Strat and Ibanez Semi Hollow Body. Oh yeah, the Fender Jumbo Acoustic is gone too.

I really need a hobby that I can't buy, sell and trade.
