Some finished pics. I love the tiny tlt body! Somehow I forgot to order a body for this truck, but the tlt body looks so funny I may leave it for a while...
Gave it a good test run last night and it performed quite well. Lower gearing would be nice, I have some smaller 5mm bore 32p pinions coming. I need longer springs, I am currently using losi 10th buggy rear springs, and need to get some losi 10th truck rear springs. My ground clearance needs to be about 1/4" higher and it should be about right. Otherwise all of the equipment ran great, no heat to speak of. My steering servo would cut out for a few seconds sometimes. Not sure why, but I may swap in a bigger jr 8711 and see how that does.
Seems like a success, the badlands tires are really good, even with the stock foams. I did narrow the foams a bit, cut off about 1/4 of the total width. The tires seemed too fat with the stock width foam on the narrow proline wheels.
Alot of Savage parts for sale!!!
