Few photos of the udr.

This is my attempt at trying to avoid the side body mounts getting ripped out.

I reckon that'll do it.

I was going to cover the grey plastic in orange vinyl to match the graphics, but the grey matches the body stripes so I'll leave it.

Shock covers are just some rc4wd ones that I had kicking around. 

Ideally I need them about 1cm longer, 3mm larger diameter at the top, and slightly thicker.

Added some scale treadplate onto the rear carrier.

Second cooling fan for the motor.  Decided on horizontal because the udr won't be doing landings large enough the break the fan blades off.

Still got the fans wiring to sort out and also the wiring for the gps, sensors etc.

Pic doesn't show much really but the GPS more accurate speedo is up and running plus the temperature sensor for the motor is working.

I wasn't going to bother with the gps and mount etc but got it second hand for a good price.

The small lipos came in the post for powering the cooling fans so I need to sort out the fitting and wiring.  I ideally wanted to use the Traxxas Link app to show me the voltage in the second lipo but can't seem to do it.  The wiring harnesses only have a single wire going to the positive lead so it won't work. There is probably a way to wire it up to the neg lead too but no idea which traxxas cable to alter as it usually plugs into the receiver/high voltage amplifier. 

I've got a spare cut off alarm/display from the Tamiyas so I'll fit that instead. 

 

Fit these bits too.
