Looks like a well-built machine. :yes:

You could take it apart and re-assemble it... Just set aside a few extra hours. :lol:

At least I know my competition now... Am planning on stretching my STe, and adding the bumpers from this truck. Just an FYI, Slash rear wheels all around on the STe give it the perfect track width to fit under a Slash body. I've got a set of Proline 2.2 Slash rear beadlocks already.

Trust me, I've thought about doing that before, but it's just not the same!

I loved Legos when I was a kid (still think they are the best toy for kids) and I think that bleeds through even now. RC is just an adult version of Legos for me, building different things to play with. I never would have wanted a Lego kit that you bought already assembled. Even now I tend to wrench on my vehicles way more than driving them.

Legos were (and are) much easier to disassemble, though. *smashes his creation on the floor* Oops! :smile:

What am I missing? What shaft(s) are you referring to?

I second that. Now I'm on the fence between the slash and this. I've owened both traxxas and ofna and as long as I've had my hyper ST my e-maxx would have been broken ten times already. But being that it's tenth scale and traxxas makes some pretty studry 1/10th vehicles that's where I'm very Iffy.

take a look.

shaft is ok, but unless they're running metal diffs, I'd assume it'd be a headache. most especially when the diffs shift from chassis flex.

EDIT

I stand corrected. they are metal diffs. Looks good...but I'm still a little hesitant. I have a bit of an affinity for traxxas (started out with a Emaxx, Stampede and Rustler) and I would love to add this to my collection. Maybe I will.

and I'll add the OFNA to my jammin collection as well. :yipi:

which reminds me: it looks like it's time to get the think-tank fired up again.

Ideas of greatness with a 4x4 Stampede and Rustler.

Ok, now I understand what you were meaning. Thanks....
