PraetoR Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 That's certainly a nice looking chassis. I'm surprised to see you using an FTX motor, though. What sort of speed are you aiming for; crawler, or trail-runner? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What sort of speed are you aiming for; crawler, or trail-runner? A bit of an all rounder really but quick enough to be fun. I run quite a few of these 550’s, I stuck a Traxxas 12t in the GMade R1👍 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
