Some desert lizard shocks in lovely ktm looking orange and two traxxas diff spools to get rid of the open diffs for a Trx4 lcg build, thanks modelsport 👍. 

And another cheap aliexpress body, 13 quid, looks just like a Ftx texan body. 

And two ar44 compatible overdrive gears. 

 

The power wagon does look very like the Texan, funny im on with painting my spare tex cab, did it yellow with blue backing not a good idea as the blue has "speckled" through in places had a thought of getting some "Matts off road recovery" stickers done now not sure i even like the yellow

Cheers for the heads up. I'll be ok if I do as I've already done the carnage (which is basically the same car) with a 3200kv hobbywing motor running 2s.

 

It can run 3s but its not the sort of car that needs 3s. Main thing that might have helped is I'm running a metal spur gear so I've had 0 issues regarding running it.

 

Can't say the same for few of the plastics parts but they are super cheap so i don't mind replacing as needed

 Wouldn't trust any of those 😀 try and avoid anywhere that deals with them unless it can't be avoided.

A few days early for the big Birthday not till next Tuesday but this is my "Me to Me" 60th birthday pressie, big birthday big item, sorry for rushed dodgy pics will do better when i get to run it.

So its the Kyosho Toyota Tacoma KB10L Brushless basher, on the same lines as the Traxxas Raptor `R` and darn near same size, this is listed as large 1/10th but in real money its very close to 1/8th and its a fast off road truck capable of around 30mph on 2S and about 44mph 3S

[Stormbringer]

very nice mate  have fun running it 

[Lone-wolf]

@Stormbringer cheers mate, first thing to do is swap out radio gear for my HotRc ds4a, and sell the kyosho radio of, not sure when i will get to run it

[MrMcG]

I guess I will be going racing again..
