Hello all! New to posting in forums so bare with me. Anyway i have been reading alot on your forum and would like to share my latest project build. Quick background; AE rc10 was my first rc in the 80's for indoor carpet. Through the years i have done everything from nitro to electric, water to air including helo and drones. I built one of the first 1/8 conversion tmaxx in the nineties with a .28, spool, paddles, etc. I have also raced a number of newer 1/10 and 1/8 scales on lipo so i am no stranger to speed and wrenching. Current land based list of vehicles: Mugen mbx7 eco with Tekin, Losi 22 and 22.4, AE sc10 2wd, AE B44.2, Baja 5b, and an Axial Wraith with billet axles and links with 35turn brushed on 2s. I haven't had a "fast basher" since the nineties messing with tmax and savage stuff. I am stepping back from racing a bit and just want to play around with something stupid fast and fun. After much research, i narrowed it down to a lst2xle and the yeti xl. I chose the xl for a number of reasons but one of the main ones is that it is so much lighter than anything comparable. Seems to me this is a huge advantage. I also attribute most of the reported problems are likely due to driver error (on throttle landings, front diff "diff out", etc. Just watch all the vids of torque twist lifting rft and proceed donut tire). Anyway after getting much good info from this forum, i decided i would like to share my experiences of this monster machine as i build and run it. My kit arrives tomorrow ams when I get enough posts i will share pics and vids of progress.
