i would say nothing, it looks beautiful, excellent job sir

Beautiful! Same color as my crt.5...nice choice...:yes:

Very nice. Where did you buy that ESC mount?

THANKS GUYS....
.....The ESC mount is made by r/c product design

Mike also made them but they never made the store :(

i wish Mike had sold them ,I really like the quality of the RCM products...i spent a lot of time with a file and deburring to finish it off a little bit nicer

Very very nice man

is that an x2 body?......if so will it fit on my x1?

I have the same electronics as you 1515/2.5d with Monster but I'm running 6s
absolutley awesome truck and power that runs nice and cool

take a look

Thanks bustitup ...It's a JCCONCEPTS X1 body that i had already for the nitro set up when it was a X1, but i was surprised how well it fit the X2...I have another new JcConcepts body that i'm gonna use without all the cutouts for the nitro stuff till i can find the new Proline Switch x2 body, they look sweet...Awesome vid by the way,thanks for posting that

Very well done!!

Excellent job! Very clean.

Very nice. Are you talking about how to mount the switch?

thanks guys for the replies....
....Driftbuggy ...yes ,i'm not really sure where or how i'm going to mount the ESC switch

do you need to have it? cut off the wires and solder them together.?

thats what i did on both my mm's alot easier to deal with imo as i never use the switches

well ,thats really what i'd like to do but wasn't sure if there was any reasons why i should not cut it off...
so by not having a switch ,disconnecting the battery will be all that needs to be done??...would i need the on/off switch for programming of the ESC ever??....thanks for all the help

without a switch you just plug and go. no worries about the switch accidentally turning off or anything. its just simpler like that. im not sure what the on/off programming is but i know others have done it with the MMMs so im sure youll be fine.

ok ...sounds like i'm just gonna get rid of the switch ...thanks guys for the help

Nice truggy !

NlCE!

Can anyone give a list of what parts are needed to convert an X1 to an X2, or point me in the right direction?

did it not cost almost as u buy a x2? I assumed u bought d gears n d chassis n big bore shocks? I was thinking of switching but not buying parts coz my LHS said it's too expensive to buy parts then d kit

Thanks again guys...I bought all the parts needed to convert to an x2 on ebay for about $180.00.....that was the chassis,small gear conversion center diff, fr/rr gearing(ring & pinions),driveshafts,chassis braces,big bore shocks...i think that was all that was needed for the conversion ,plus that price included fr/rr upper and lower a arms(which were an updated plastic compared to the x1 and rear wing(these arent needed for the x2 conversion,oh yeah, another 40 for the proline lpr wheels and tires...so all in all it was still cheaper to convert to x2 than to buy the x2 kit

that's a good deal:) I will keep a lookout at eBay
