Yes hex up front. The graphite has also but hex are not in the picture.

Small Update
Hopefully I get my RPM parts in the mail and I can continue the build today.

looks good.... inspires me to keep working on mine.

The flat blue looks really good. I'll be watching this one.

Still did not get my RPM parts.....taking longer than I thought.
Here are the custom nose tubes and front end I did yesterday.

Picture...

So RPM discontinued the 70272 right after I tried to order some.
I had to go to another supplier, so I ordered 3.
To my surprise I got an unexpected gift.
Not sure if i will use them for this build or not.

They flex really badly on the skinny part where the rod end bolts to.

Another small update.
Ordered the wrong bearings for the rear.
Changed the front shock tower.

Got the shocks on. I did not like how the short ones looked in the front so I put some taller ones on.
I should get my bearings by Monday so that I can finish this thing to roller state.

When I find some blue 1.02 fronts I will probably switch them out again.
Need to find a blue motor and speed control. Still thinking Speed Passion is the way to go on this.
Anyone know where to find a blue servo?......not Traxxas.

Sanwa servo
LRP speedo
Losi Motors (dont kill me, they are all blue)...

True, but the Revtech Killshot is one of the best looking motors ever and has one of the coolest names ever. Hard to believe it's brushless... Killer build by the way!

All done for now. Need to wait for December Tower codes so that I can get some wheels.

Thanks. I got mine this morning also.
