Zannu Posted February 10, 2018 Share Posted February 10, 2018 Looks like it is coming on really well, and going to be a blast. If I were you I would use a waterproof receiver and stick it to the chassis between the motor and ESC, but that is just my preference (as long as the servo lead would reach). Is that spur gear plastic or metal? looks like plastic to me, but I feel like a model like this it would be metal. Maybe I do need to sell all my Bullets and a few other parts to get one of these. It looks really tough and well built. Enjoy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bix Posted February 10, 2018 Share Posted February 10, 2018 More than a little jealous! The lack of parts support for the 2wd these days put me off the 4x4 version even though I really wanted one! Didnt realise they had a run in with traxxas, at least it should mean the part support for the 4x4 will last longer as it’s a bespoke design now Looks ridiculously solid in the pictures, makes my boys Stampede 4x4 look a bit toy grade in comparison (which it isn’t at all). Looking a forward to seeing it running! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J.K Posted February 10, 2018 Share Posted February 10, 2018 I’m not too fussed about UK part support TBH. Most probably buy their spares from abroad anyway, I know I do! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.AJ. Posted February 10, 2018 Author Share Posted February 10, 2018 Proline did a great job designing the bulkheads, its only 6 screws to get the rear diff out, shame about the pathetic grease they put in it...... Its the same story with the front diff, the centre takes 4 screws to remove, but it had silicone grease in it 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bix Posted February 11, 2018 Share Posted February 11, 2018 If my boys new Stampede 4x4 is anything to go by your Pro MT should withstand a mental amount of abuse! His Stampede isn’t far from stock and he beat the crap out of it at a local BMX track this afternoon. Looking forward to seeing a report after you get yours out for its maiden run although being brand new I don’t expect quite the same level of abuse lol 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
