That body is sweet and it is probably what I would put on my VRD Carbon...maybe even my Pro.
It will be going on my VRD Carbon. I had bought the Element Zuul body for my VRD, but then VP unveiled the Stance body. I'll probably fit both bodies to the chassis to mix it up a bit.

Well, my crawlin buddys got me a gift card for amain for christmas. Theyre some pretty cool fellars, met them at scale nats last yr. Anywho, i jumped on the amain site n start scrollin for a new body. I was torn between the PL 73 bronco, another 67 ford f100, or the coyote body. After some thought, knowing i have an awesome package comin from our good buddy twade, i chose the coyote body. Loved how well the cliffhanger performed, so ill give this one a shot. But, ill end up pickin up another f100 body soon as well, to replace the one i have now.
So my list was the PL coyote body, tamiya ps5 black, ps7 orange, n ps32 corsa grey. Also grabbed a bitty designs honeycomb reusable stencil, we'll see how that goes when it comes time to lay paint.
Now we wait for twades package to arrive, hopefully tues...

Been needing this for a few years. Backs getting pretty fugged.
Sat down in the one in the store. adjusted for height and back rest agle (like a car you can adjust the backrest for more upright/reclined positions. Then I sat down and backed into the chair and a few vertibrae let go, and then I tossed the lumbar support in and pow, 2 others that were giving me fits immediately popped.
So I figured it was time. Normally these are like 330.00 and it was at Staples on closeout for 150. I probably still overpaid, but for the most part with the adjustable back, this should bring me hopefully a fair bit of relief the rest of this winter.

You're going to love it. A good computer gaming chair...whether expensive, or inexpensive...can do wonders for the body once properly adjusted. I'm sure you will, but speed some time "testing" where it's set, make minor adjustments, and "test" again. By "test", sit in it for 45-60 minutes. I know that sounds like a lot, but those are the same directions I was given when I bought mine...and, in the long run, it paid off. Took a couple weeks to determine the 'best' position, but, when I'm sitting in it for extended periods of time, my body is thankful for it.

Ya for sure. Already making a big difference being able to lower the arms. OThres are too hight and my shoulders go numb from being pushed up. the lumbar and neck pillows are sweet also. Been moving the lumbar around, which will likley be my norm. The Docs wanted to operate and I decided against that idea. That was in 1980 when I was 13.

Not sure if yours has these options...but, most can also slide the armrests to different forward/backward positions, as well as rotate the armrests inward/outward. I don't bother with the inward/outward...but, I find the forward/backward very useful. Of the top of my head, I believe mine is 12-way adjustable (which is common, except for chairs not being able to rotate armrests inward/outward, in which case 10-way), not counting the lumbar support & head rest. Mine is a Vertagear SL5000...tho, I did get mine for 40% off.

Yes. up down. forward backward adjustment on the side arms. Thats pretty big on for me so far in the last 24 hours. Mine will twist out/in a little bit, but don't go fully turn outward.
It's Certainly been a good buy.
Late Christmas present to myself and give the LHS some money. Body will go on an IERC Mergo X Evo chassis, and the rest to figure out. Haven't searched yet but I'm hoping someone has made a topper/camper to sorta look like it's counterpart a bit. If not I'll make one from styrene or something.
Congrats guys! Looking forward to seeing both of these builds!"thumbsup"
I did not get any RC stuff for Christmas, but these clear Vanquish HD44 axles and red knuckles for my Pro build were delivered the day after.

That is a nice pick I really want these axles looking forward to see them installed on your pro. "thumbsup"
I gambled on the Trucks of Fortune just to see if I could score a set of these in blue cover along with a kit but did not get lucky enough to land them. however I did manage to get a second set of the F10T's in clear.
LOSI Front Tire arrived yesterday with an RPM Crash Structure when needed.
And today my Loctite 426 arrived which is made to bond rubber and aluminum together so it should work great with the Vitavon rims.
Also finally grabbed a pair of the Pro-Line SuperMoto wheels for some onroad play.

I haven't touched an RC in ages. But good God those Vivaton wheels are drop dead sexy!!
They sure are. Even if they were to go on a shelf, they were worth the pennies. heh.
I’ve got a few things, I can grab more pics later but this is the biggest news. Bambu Lab A1 3d printer

If only I were better at CAD, I could see a way to one of these.
