I got the electronics all installed and ready to go. I now need to get a Tekin Hotwire and some different LiPo's. I had traded a set of Clod wheels and tires for a really nice pair of 3S LiPo's specifically for this truck and they are too big. They won't fit under the G1 plate on the one side of the truck so I have to find some that will fit. Or just maybe go with 2S in series for 4S, I even tried all of my 2S packs and none of them will fit as I have all hard case and they are too wide for the cradles. I might even try some 3S LiFe packs for it, I have my eye on some Turnigy ones that look nice but I have to make sure they are going to fit first.

Gear installed :
Spektrum SR3300T
Tekin RX8 ESC
Tekin 2250KV Motor
Hitec HSR-5990TG Servo w/ Lunsford Ti link

I took a Black sharpie to the sides of the slipper pads since these are the high temp ones and with that light vanilla color it stuck out pretty good, now you cannot even see them. I used all black and red wire instead of the factory blue wire that comes with the ESC.

Well I think it is just about finished until testing comes. I have to adjust a little toe on the front end and get some different packs that fit. What a drag the ones I have don't fit.
