New Axial - Wraith

[bsn]

I will be at MSD. I will be playing in the spec class (go Axial, what ever we get to drive). I will be holding lots of money to buy one of these, maybe. I think I will wait to at least play with one before I decide on this or another honcho.

Wow! :shock: Doing some testing I see.

Sweet! Waterproof???? That would be very nice! "thumbsup""thumbsup""thumbsup""thumbsup"

under all the fun, i see a bit of red.... maybe it will be released in different color schemes?

Me too and hope so.

I hope they are not just gearing this to the LIPO crowd. I just do this as a hobby and still use 6 cell packs. I see no place for a Normal NIMH 6 cell pack...Oh Well..not for me I guess. and I hope they do not put this on the Packaging unless it comes Waterproof....which would be cool....

Nimhs suk! Lipo baby... :mrgreen:

Still waiting for the front and rear photos...muddy or not

yes...

Not Factory Wheels - Muddy Wraith

These wheels [post #544/page-28] are not the factory spec wheels that will come on the rig. Those are shown on the original image [post #1 & #256/page-13]. But, like everything, anything can change during the course of development.

For the Muddy Wraith image, these where some wheels & tires that the R&D crew had and where doing additional wheel fitment testing and happen to be on there for the mud torture bath began.

Yes, yes - you do see some red-orange'ish color under the mud-coat.... but that too is just some "slap on" color during testing before the graphic skins arrived.

Again, see Post #256/page-13.

Let's hope Axial gets smart and includes the nice wheels.

Based on the look of the rig it would probably be better to have the more scale looking wheels for mass market appeal. Plus keeping the cost down as so many of us will ditch the stickers anyway.

The only thing I will use is the drive train. I have no desire to run a all plastic rig that everyone else has.

:lmao: very true Ty, good point.

I am excited to get more info on this rig. "thumbsup"

 

[70duncan]

Sure looks cool. I would run one."thumbsup" I am sure my kids will have one when they become available.

I think we could all tell the wheelbase looked longer. Hadn't seen a solid figure yet though. Quick scaling off that last pic looks like it is 13.75"

Am I crazy to want to bolt a Tamiya YJ body onto this. I've been wanting to put the TJ body on my scx10 chassis for a while and I just haven't been impressed with the way I've seen some of those builds turn out. It's hard to tell without more specifics but just by eyeballing it, it seems possible.

Pretty sure it will be way too small.

Yes it's going to be small, but is he crazy?

I sure hope that waterproofing is true. It sure is a pain to waterproof all the electronics..
