I've been thinking about a brat for my next build, this may have pushed to towards the decision
I wanted to put the seats in the back and make a full interior but I ran out of time. Maybe I'll start making one.

Lol there aren't comps here.....but I know how to do one, so I'll make a course.
Its funny, I was just bragging on how durable this things was, and as I was making that video at the end I broke the front driveshaft and idler gears in the trans Lol. Steel gears and Junfac shafts are on the way!
I'm starting to feel the same way about my class 1 bronco - it pretty much hangs with any class 2 and is WAY more fun than driving my wraith.
Looking forward to starting my Amigo build so it'll have a class one buddy "thumbsup"
You still need to post up some vids :mrgreen:
Yeah, set up a little course!
Lol - that happened to me a while back (tranny) in my bronco. I opted for HR aluminum gears. So far so good.
It has been a very sturdy kit. Links and everything. It can crawl with the best of them, but you have to mirror the trans to prevent torque twist as well as add A LOT of weight to the front. Climbing it does 8/10 things an SCX10 full size does. But it excells at break over angles where a regular truck gets high centered.
Its biggest flaw is descending steep grades so far. It likes to flip off of drop offs and stuff. Not a biggie, that's why I run a higher turn motor on 3S, I jump off of them. Other then that, its rock solid and has way more advantages then disadvantages.
Be prepared to get beef tubes to chock the hubs, otherwise your steerings angle will be horrible due to the pinion angle pitch. So overall, it does require little tweaks, but the trade off is full hard bodies and a much larger line of scale, more detailed bodies. Nothing compares in price or quality to this chassis IMO.
Well if you have questions feel free to ask.
