B-MOW goes PRO with the VS4-10

[B-MOW71]

Took the PRO out for a quick trip on my pile of rocks in my backyard.

Only took one pic.



If your on IG, then check out #tinytruckselfiechallenge and take the challenge!

There are some cool "selfies" people have been posting!

I'm hoping to get some much needed wheelin' on some real rocks with the PRO soon! It still has that "new car" smell! I need to get'er dirty!

If Beat The Creek 2020 in Kentucky is still going to happen this September, than it WILL see it's first "real" beating!

It’s looking awesome!

I have a quick question. What color beef hooves did you get? I have a very similar color scheme on my Ultra, and I’ve been looking at hooves. I want the same color you have.

Thanks![emoji106]

These are orange. They match well with the Tamiya Pure Orange.

So I've got this bookmarked for some reference as I get my Pro finished. Very Cool thread, thank you for the link. Will answer a lot of silly questions at a glance.

Favorite, is covering the damn body-clips with the fuel cell. So irritated that the RC Universe is treating body-clips like they are precious relics.

Thanks and thanks for taking a look!"thumbsup"

I agree on the body clips! No need to have them eyesores out in the open! I should try to come up with a way to get rid of the front clips.

Did you make a build thread? Looking forward to seeing your PRO!

4 years ago. It has been almost 4 years ago since my last post here! Shamefull!

Well, finally got the PRO got dirty for the first time. It now has real scratches and gouges!

Took it to RC River Cliff Trails here in Ohio. A great place to run tiny trucks and hang out with other addicted tiny truck nerds like me!

But first, I pulled out the Castle Mamba X and Slate motor that has been living in it since it was new back in 2019. After the invent of the HW Fusion PRO and SE, I haven't been a big fan of the Castle systems. Yeah they are good, but now with the more simplistic design of the Fusion's and their super smooth and very slow crawling speed, I see no reason to carry around the heavy Mamba X any longer. I installed the Fusion SE 1800kv. Plenty of speed with the stock gearing and all the smooth and slow low end speed that I need.

Before and after pics of the layout from the Fusion install. I also moved the wiring from the rear box to a new aftermarket Traxxas cloned receiver box. And moved the battery from the drivers side to the passenger side. Wiring much more tidy and moves most everything closer to the front of the rig.



And here is a big oops that happened before the Fusion install. I fired up the rig in the basement to test out the Mamba X before I pulled it out. The rig got away from me and slammed into wall. Cracked the virgin body instantly! I used a little E6000 and Gorilla tape to mend the wound.



Here's a few pics of the PRO's first real drive out on the rocks. Perfect late Ohio Summer day to be out on the rocks!

It’s always good to see a pro getting used, and yours looks great.

That’s a serious bummer cracking the body, but now I don’t see any reason to hold back on the rocks!

Thanks guys! Yeah, bummer about the body! I have been afraid to run it because of the body. Damage done and definitely not holding back now!

Forgot to add the pics of the bros after their outing!

I just gotta say, Brian... that the paint colors/ graphics/ wheel styles/ wheel colors on your rigs are always works of art. Never seen a more consistently jaw-dropping fleet.
