Yes they are. I will let you know. They are a little heavy to be honest, but look good imho.

Is this a converted Savage or regular Esavage?
You forgot the paint for the body.:sarcastic:

Desert Rc 12.08.2010 08:09 PM

Well this is just a rough cut actually. I am waiting for some BulldogŪ Adhesion Promoter. Planning on beating the snot out of this so I want to make sure the paint sticks.

This is a flux XL length.

Adhesion Promoter is for girls, really men let their paint flake! ;)

:lol:....I will say that this proline body is VERY thick. Pretty durable looking.

Jahay 12.09.2010 04:40 PM

i love that proline body!!!! Cant wait to see it painted!!!

Those 5t wheels are something different!!! Very tall but a little narrow.... interested to see how it handles...

Do you think you can weigh a wheel and tyre to see how much it weighs? quite curious...

Loving the baja light pods on the front... !!!

thzero 12.09.2010 04:51 PM

They don't look as wide because of their height. But they are still 3" wide. Big Joes in comparison are 3.5". The ProLine Baja Badlands I run are 3.11" wide on the rear, not as tall though at 6.84" compared to 7.4".

Sorry for no updates, works trying to kill me again. I have another day off on weds and I will get further. I have ordered some nano's from hobbyking. 6s so we will see how the handling is on these meats.

Desert Rc 12.23.2010 02:21 PM

My Christmas Present to myself showed up...Nano's anyone.

There is one more lipo for my XXL LST as well...it looks like a brick!!!

Yes off topic, but I also bought my self a cool scaler for the snow. Just thought I would share. A bit slower then the Savy but still very fun. II am waterproofing everything this year.

The Turnigy Nano's are usually listed as 163 or 175mm long. What are the actual lengths of yours?
