I still love this, bar the useless low gear it doesn’t need. The bodyshell mounts seem to work, though the front arches could possibly do with opening up, still I like the occasional rubbing noise! Stock tyres and the Injora beadlocks are doing great.
The perfect looking Vanquish bumper costs very little though it occasionally stops you pushing upwards on an obstacle if your a dead square head on. I might yet cut 10mm off the chassis rails at the rear to pull the matching rear bumper in. I could flip the mount (which is a front bumper mount), but I’m thinking too much height could cause it to flip backwards?
Not felt the need to chuck any extra brass on - but then there is very little weight on the body shell compared to most TRX4. It looks scale enough to me 👍
What might I change?
Next time I’d keep the single speed (whose ratio is between the 2 speeds) and keep/add the 45 spur and 9 tooth pinion and go higher than the 550/21T it currently has. Happy on 2S too, I would probally destroy it on 3S, I have tried and I don’t stick the 3S pack in anymore 😇🤣
