traded off some of my Tamiya stuff that I never run , and don't ever plan on
gave up a frog roller, hornet roller , rtr Nissan king cab , rtr blackfoot , and a few other random oldies
and got these ,+ a big pile of parts and custom cut carbon chassis that fit the losi 22 , several shorty lipo , and a few esc sets

the tmax was nitro and had the motor but im already in the process of converting it to electric (had the gear box on hand) just need the driveshaft's to connect the new gearbox

first truck all done
going to be a hell of a sleeper as soon as I get new tires

well guess ill keep talking to myself lol

next truck is underway
hit a bit of a snag
hpi flux 1/8 brushless motor uses a 5mm shaft with a odd pitch on the pinion
soo had to order a new pinion
but good news is esc and motor mounted up without needing any help .
now just need to whip up a 3d print for the battery holder , and shifter servo(and guess I should make something to block the second motor hole so no dirt gets in)

lol yea

did get the tmaxx conversion finished up its pretty dam crazy , wheelies at half throttle
had to go out and pick up a wheelie bar yesterday

not bad for a crappy nitro truck with a short wheel base
had to dial the esc back to lowest punch setting and enable a 10% drag brake (would front flip if used the brakes )
