I bought a partial 10T slider, and this is with it.

Af first, I thought it was a general Chinese esc. Then I noticed the older potentiometers, wire size, and that it was foreword only.

I don't have it in my hands yet but I thought I'd ask.
I came across some Airtronics units that weren't the same but had features that looked related.

This should be simple for Losi truck guys, which I am not, and not much to go on, but can these rigs be identified by just the body views?

Ignore the Traxxi in the rear. :D

The Losi's above are pretty cool.

Now let's see if someone can identify a truck without a pic!

Was given an aftermarket body that had the body mount holes punched out... two holes in the rear, closely spaced, likely atop the rear shock tower... and get this, ONE hole in the front, center high on the hood bulge like it's mount was on top of the front shock tower....

What early 2000's stadium truck came with a single body mount location on top of the front shock tower??

Oooo... that was close! Seached and, their front body mount is recessed into the tower, whatever truck this body was intended for the front mount would have to stand proud of the tower...

Rear mounts are spread to far apart on the Blackfoot... but it's impressive that there at least 3 different trucks with center front body mounts when I didn't even know even one existed.

...if you can think of more, keep 'em coming! (with a great big, thank you, of course!)

So I went to pick up this handsome fella today, 100% convinced it was a DIY garage build from the pics. But after seeing it up close, it seems too nice and the pieces are machined well. I am convinced this was some sort of kit. Anyone???

It's time to stand up to the bully. Support the companies that support the industry, not the ones that tear it down. Say no to Traxxas
