I like what you did with the lowered topdeck. It's an idea I've often entertained but never went with because of lack of short standoffs, lot's of material needed and alots of cutting... making me respect your work all the more

Slowly but surely. Nice work rc10nick! Any plans for a CF front top plate and CF side rail braces? Since you ran out of wrong ways and can only have success now. It must feel nice to know what you're doing after all that trial and "error". Even your "bad" parts look good.

While I liked the g10 version a lot, I won't deny it looks way better now.

Wow. Pretty sweet. I have a set of delrin arms that I traded a dude for some stuff. They are supposedly for the TRX-1. I've never mounted them but they are certainly more "rustic" than those ones you rustled up there. Them 'r nice.

Looks good! That material sounds interesting.

The nitro stampede/rustler/slash trans and rear bulkhead are good candidate as well. Really the only drawback to the nitro trannys is that you can’t fit the modern slipper directly.

smart design!

That's dope.

REALLY NICE!!

Looks promising and good luck for the race!

nice 'n looooow

Impressive work! MX Acres on youtube right not is proving a regular old Bandit can compete so this version you should have an IFMAR contender

I've been working on a mid motor bandit as a kit bash with a nitro rustler transmission. I would much rather have a transmission that uses the stock bandit gears. Are the internals of the trans all stock traxxas parts? Great work BTW i loves the V1 thread so ill be checking in here too.

It's getting closer. Have a lot of details left but its basically assembled. mostly parts I had laying around. The protech 2 body seemed to fit the best.

I've got a couple of Comical RC10 buggies to build. I'm starting out with the shorty Masami style build, the Ultra Short Wheel Base race replica.

A little kickoff to the assembly work.

Need to get a few more parts before progressing further. E-clips, ball studs, turnbuckles, etc.

I was planning on doing a Stealth gearbox, but I'm low on those and strangely enough have a couple of Thorp 48p setups sitting around. So a Thorp 6 gear it is. . PXL_20230908_174926961~2.jpg . This gearbox also had a used set of titanium nitride coated diff rings. The diff seems pretty smooth after ...
