here are some pics of my rc10t terminator with ss 4300 brushless

Nice, a carbon fiber bullet

YEAH! That thing looks bad! Bad meaning good of course.

I'd be investing in some titanium turnbuckles up front though, they look really long and that truck looks super fast.

cool wheels, what are they?what are you using to brace the nose its kinda hard to see in the pic. bracing the nose with a stock 10t noseplate on a terminator chassis is critical its hard to get gt mounts to fit in front of the battery straps.my first attempt i used the smaller aluminum rtr style mounts. i still bent 3 nose plates before i made a custom brace plate that mounts to the steering bellcrank screws. then i finally machined my own terminator style aluminum noseplate.

rpm wheels. the fronts are narrowed.the front is braced with the gt mounts modified to fit ahead of the battery mount..............

it is fast and i am looking for a set of titanium turnbuckles.

thanks for the comments guys..................

i really like thoes wheels but i am leery on racing chrome wheels they will flake or chip after 1 or 2 good shots. i have even had the chrome flake off just by mounting a set of tires on them. my last set was a set of hpi 5 spoke buggy wheels that i dropped in blue dye for a few minutes, they came out a cool translucent blue chrome color. i think the dye made the chrome softer or flexible because they havent chipped up as bad.

Wow this car looks awesome! What sort of track would it run on? Is the stealth gearbox reliable with brushless?

Cheers

we race on an indoor oval carpet track. i will post some pics of our next race but that won't be till the last saturday of the month. as for the gearbox no problems yet the ss4300 is a mild brushless. comparable to a 19 turn brushed motor.

thanks...................scot.
