SuperMaxx High Voltage Lightning

[MonsterMaxx]

WE HAVE PRODUCTION PARTS!!!!

2nd Generation Production Parts are just about 'in stock' now.


Well, the prototype has come to the end of it's useful life. Still in great shape mind you, but even Unlimited Engineering has a limit how many trucks we can support.

3 HVLs will be running in the stable.
I'll keep stocker with the prototype. RTR on a moment's notice.
As some of you may have seen there's going to be a new truck based on the 1717
And the Racetruck Prototype.

Today was the Racetruck's day to see new parts and it got the Gen2 Production High Voltage Lightning.
Eric wants to have a racetrack day tomorrow and I want the truck ready.

By noon there was a basket of parts on my desk and I was into it by then.
I tried to follow the instructions so here's real life images that can be used for assembly.
Took me the better part of 3-4 hours since I rebuilt diffs along the way. The build went easily and everything worked quite well.

The Black Oxide one one of the motor cams is all that's holding us back from shipping. That part will be done and here next week. I expect all my backorders to be shipped next week and the kit will be 'in stock'.

Out the door they went.
All the pre-orders have been shipped and the kits are now 'in stock'.
whoo hoo, that was a long haul.

Also, the Castle 1717 fits like a glove.

The original Lightning was just laying around gathering dust so today with the arrival most of the High Voltage CNC gear I figured it was the perfect opportunity to build another Lightning which was always the biggest mac daddy one in the fleet.

Today the original Lightning donated it's VBS with SetBacks. And I found a Gen4 Saver in my search for parts. A new High Voltage Lightning Kit and a Castle 1717 with an RX8 to round out the main power. A 7955TG with castle BEC and 8th scale big bore long travel shocks.

I have a 1520 coming as well and according to the computer it will fit.
