After a short test run I found that the mayhem esc is not the esc for me! NOT 3s compatible at all!.. I broke down and threw a fxr in it.. had to do it!
I also figured out the shock set up is junk so I grabbed a set of scx10 shocks from a fella in the classifieds.. Sooo when I get them this should be buttoned up within the next week! and BAM:shock: you'll have a running video!

Pics...... soon

NOT JUST ANOTHER YOTA!!!!!


I'd keep the shock set up but the servo hits the axle and f's everything up..
The scx10 shocks will droop just enough to give it a nice stance and let me figure out an effective steering angle..

Florida is proving to be a pretty good mix of terrain... Definitely no Tennessee field stones here but some noteworthy terrain for sure!

As soon as I get a few more rigs together I'll have some decent videos posted so you can check it out for yourself!"thumbsup"

Racked up an hour on the Diver this morning... Cut a brace out of the chassis to make room for the axle mounted servo and threw the scx10 shocks on.. Took her for a ride in the yard and will definitely need to throw better motor in this one... Too fast... No torque..

More to come-

Chucked a NEW Epic 27t Green machine motor in her today and took her to the beach with the fam.. Tried to get a running video but that didnt work out so well .. I took pics to try an make up for it...:ror:

The truck handles like a dream...
The wheels need a tiny bit of weight and I'm going to need a bit more steering throw but this is shaping up to be a KICK ass Dumpster truck!!
