Upstate K10

After retiring the Honcho body from my beloved Blue Taco, I had a fairly "built" SCX10II kit chassis sitting around feeling sorry for itself. After nearly a year of having no idea what direction to go with in terms of body shell, I saw a Danny RC video featuring his kid's K10 Element and realized holy crap, that's my favorite American pickup! I didn't even realize Proline made one!

So out came the old Tamiya 27T 540 can, the Axial BF Goodrich tires went to my recent TRX4 project and I chopped the battery tray and shortened it to make room for a 550 can.

Setup as it stands:

Hexfly-branded Hobbywing 1040 ESC
Holmes Hobbies Crawlmaster Sport 550 15T
HiTec HS-7950TH servo (waterproofed with a smearing of Shoe Goo)
Wertymade Honcho bumper
STRC rear frame brace
RC4WD frame extension
G-Made G-Transition 90mm internally sprung shocks setup for droop
Vanquish machined steel transmission gears
Hot Racing front OD ring gear, forget the actual ratio but it's a bunch
RC4WD Rally beadlocks in 1.9 flavor
RC4WD Mickey Thompson Baja Claw TTCs in 4.75
Xtra Speed aluminum axle housings and diff covers
