My baja bug rustler/slash hybrid

[pastimesteve]

This has been done before, but here's a project I've been working on for a while. It's a stretched Rustler chassis with Slash suspension and tranny. The wheels are Pro-Line Protrac with zero offset to bring the wheels closer to the body.

I think it makes the Pro-Line Baja Bug body look halfway presentable instead of just putting it on a stock Slash. I was never happy with the wheelbase match on a stock Slash chassis.

Nice,

Looks good!

Thanks Diggley! These are fun, huh? I know you've been enjoying your Slash's.

You bet!

I'm with you on removing the "fake" VW engine. It looks great, & way more scale.


I'm working on something similar for my RC10GT.

[pastimesteve]

Thanks again! Yeah, the fake engine didn't do much for me. I can't wait to see what you come up with for the RC10GT.

That looks really cool, much more scale than most.

Thanks Doomed! This is definitely one of my favorites.
