Traxxas TRX-10.1 Bullet LW

[GoMachV]

Took a little weight off this Bullet. Long graphite towers, some aluminum screws, light rear arms (fronts coming), custom upper deck, long gold shocks, ball diff, lightweight one piece wheels and (coming) a light body. Oh, and of course black anno

Could have actually been competitive at this trim, it's weight is just under that of an aluminum tub RC10

[GoMachV]

Here it was as I got it. Looks good, but there wasn't one straight part on it!

[Mr. ED]

That needs the graphite chassis RAD2 expert for some extra sparkle.

Looks very competitive compared against anything that was out around the same time

[GoMachV]

I considered making the upper out of carbon but thought it might be too much.

[Mr. ED]

The chassis I'm talking about doesn't look like graphite or carbon. Some body had the strangest idea and designed it to covered with a glittter-metalic black coating.

For looks it would not match your anodising, but it is light-weight and actuaaly sooo stiff you could do a way with the topdeck entirely.
(Which would be a pity of your work, but lighter and with a lower center of gravity.)

[GoMachV]

Are you talking about the stock Eagle chassis? It's painted carbon fiber, from the factory. I have that one here...

[Mr. ED]

That's the chassis indeed, but mine had a different coating : with gold and purple sparkles in it. It was factory done because the chassis nr sticker was still on it.

[GoMachV]

mine was a metal flake also, hard to see in the pics- but not gold and purple. Thats interesting!

[R Cane]

Nice. I like the black/white contrast.

Dude,

SCHWING! Nice work. Crisp. Clean. Looks factory (or better).

I'm glad you bumped this, I forgot that I trimmed up the Radicator body for it. I like the way it looks with the battery cutouts, it changes the look just enough

[Minisforever]

Mach you build some of the nicest looking cars!

[SFC K]

Wow! This looks like it came from the factory like that. Nice job!

[Lonestar]

it's gorgeous
