Northwind Posted October 30, 2018 Share Posted October 30, 2018 (edited) I was building this for myself but I just don't like the way it looks tbh! So I got a Deadbolt instead and now this is spare. Wee video of it running- the garden stuff was filmed immediately before I boxed it up, the crawler stuff is older so there's a few minor differences (mostly the wheels and tyres which are cheapo chinese in the crawler shots, but have been replaced with proper 2.2 Axial Treps) It already has a load of upgrades as I bought it as a slider. Included is a practically new Flysky GT3B (bound to the truck and set up but only used for that), a Hobbywing 1060 ESC, and a Turnigy 2S lipo with basic balancing charger, plus some random spares. (the videos were all filmed with this 2S lipo in it. Don't worry about the tape! The battery is not swelled or in any way imperfect other than the dang sticker fell off) The servo has been upgraded to a JX 20kg number, and the steering components have been upgraded to aluminium including the hubs etc so it's a lot tougher and steers better. I kept the short link as plastic as it doesn't hinder performance but helps protect the servo. Wheels and tyres are stock- Maxxis Trepadors on Axial wheels. (the spare on the back is a 1.9 so isn't quite right). Also the inside of the roof and bonnet panels have been sprayed black to improve the looks a little, and I've added an interior panel in the battery tray to fix the annoying "battery drops out the side" issue they have with smaller batteries. Overall condition is decent, everything works as it should, no major damage- some scuffing from rollovers etc, it's a used crawler and in very good nick for that. It's engineered for 3S capability but runs and crawls really nicely on two. If you want more speed then just fire in a 3S, it'll run perfectly though you'll probably want to stiffen the rear springs if you do that. If I were keeping it I think I'd fit axial universal front axles to improve the steering lock but it all works very well as it is and way better than an out-of-the-box Axial RTR pics here as they're too big to upload to the forum:https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/753813671677304 Edited October 30, 2018 by Northwind Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
