I absolutely love that last picture, Freeze thanks for the build, it was fun. Everything turned out great. In fact more than great that thing is insane. I hope it brings you hours of fun. I imagine you will keep us updated on any tweaks and such in the future! I look forward to many more videos.

I cant believe your motor came loose.. just tighten and loctite a little more and should be fine...

Do you feel anything else is needed for the truck? are you happy with the way its performing
Dunno wether its a combo of the XL size conversion or what but it doesn't respond to mid air changes like I want it to but I need to drive it more before I can make any adjustment calls

Gotta say the only two things I miss about Bozeman would be the skiing, and the potential bash sites!
Red's fine, just use a lighter to heat it up. I'm not in Bozeman, im in Missoula, but close enough :P

Thanks Reno, appreciate all your guys support and excitement throughout this build. I know its nothing in comparison to alot of other guys custom builds but it was still a labor of love for me and im very happy with the results. I'll figure out what I want to tweak the more I drive the truck while i've still got good weather up here

You can definetly tell a difference; I've driven both my nitro XL (when it was one, and soon shall be one again), a buddy's Flux, and my RC8T conversion and its definetly different experience. MT is just as much fun for bashing, and sometimes more, as the truggy!
