Felony shelf queen makeover

[Harriot10]

Time for another build. I bought this Felony from a LHS on the release date. It was really a impulse purchase. I bought the V2 Infraction the same day. Anyway, my Felony is a shelf queen. This thing has only hit the road twice, still on original Hoons. Now it’s time to build another speed run rig. Parts have been coming in little by little. Matching the diffs, XLX2, big can TP, and GT body. Hopefully I can eventually get in the 150’s once I get this thing dialed in. Gonna start during the holiday break.

Removed most stock parts. Now I need to decide if I’m gonna deanodized red parts like I usually do or just leave them alone. Pulling the diffs next for heavier fluid and shimming.

Got a little wrenching in this evening. Pulled the diffs, shimmed with Mugen diff washer set, changed rear to GP5, 20m F/R, m2c F/R input cups, replaced the steering bushings with bearings, and m2c droop screws. Also modified the stock receiver box. (removed ESC plate) Little disappointed in the EM Performance long battery tray, no hardware included and I don't feel like searching all over Amazon for spacers. I'm gonna buy the CF one on eBay. Cost a bit more, but good quality stuff. If anyone's interested in the EMP long tray, PM me.

Little more progress. Still waiting on several parts. Haven’t decided if I’m gonna spend $150 for monster Savox or just put a JX 46kg in there. Not crazy about the 20mm shaft length on the TP, like the longer 30mm better

Did a little more work to the GT build this afternoon. Getting over Covid, garage is a good place to quarantine!(Dodged that crap for 2yrs)

Anyway, soldered on some 8mm bullets, lots of CF, and reassembled. Still undecided on servo. Any suggestions? I run AGFRC, pricey but no complaints, JX 46kg, reasonable and not bad so far. Still haven’t talked myself into $150 Savox Monster!

Awesome clean job bro

Thanks brother! They always look so good during assembly and once complete. The part that sucks is the first high speed crash. Hopefully this is the car I break 150 with.

Almost ready to do some testing. GT body needs cut and painted. I finished up all wiring and binding. XLX2 is programmed to my liking. Driveshafts, spool, spur, and pinion installed. Looks pretty clean. Hopefully running the single long tray works.
