Yeah, I need to shoot some video of it. I forgot the camera the last time I was out with it. I keep breaking shit though. Last time the rear of the frame let go now I've got a wiring issue with the front motor and I blew out the rear JB welded diff. I should be able to fix it up with some epoxy and soldering. I'm not sure when I'll get to it as I have family down all week.

Yeah, it's got some grunt to it. Of course I'd like more.May go to 6t pinions and more cells or lipo and brushless but I think I'm breaking enough parts for now and need to get some other issues sorted out first. I tend to be a little hard on my junk.

What's the plan for your next build?

well ive got a complete E-Savage here that im stripping for parts

-using the independent diffs and locking them up to rigid
-prob use a chassis that a guy i know makes, aussie rock crawler gear, TTS Chassis
-e-savage gearbox been shaved and moved motor towards bottom for lower COG
-for reduced weight, only 1 motor

pretty much it, heres my standard gear i wikll be running with it from the juggy

-nosram patriot reverse ESC
-J-Line 4 channel controller
-J-line 7ch receiver
-steel geared servos, name and model has slipped my mind
-40s rims and XL moabs, narrowed rims and tyres

well..i just took over your thread, sorry man :)
