I think I found my one RC that will do everything.
After deliberating for a while (https://www.arrmaforum.com/threads/whats-a-good-multi-purpose-rc-for-street-bashing.54728/), the Typhon was a close second, but the SCT look has always appealed to me. I loved my BLX Senton when I first got it, but after it was plagued by the sloppy steering and typically handling of the 3s line, I became disenchanted and turned it into my big rock.
Purposes: 4s street bashing, track time, bashing, hopefully my "go-to" RC when I don’t want to go anywhere and just kill a pack in front of my house.
From the start I bought TKR5570-17 (17mm hex buggy conversion set), the aluminum A block, and steel diff pins (TKR5149A). Especially since I got the kit from Tower Hobbies for $260!
Since I've always been a budget builder (and I also spent so much on other parts...) this will be no exception. It will be using some electronics from my MT410 (as we approach rainy season) in the mean time. 130a spektrum with an Amazon special servo. On the way is currently a 27kg jx ecoboost servo. I'll be running my big rock's 3660 3200kv motor as I've had reasonable success running 4s on these motors. I'll be using the old senton body until it's no longer viable.not the best looking... but it'll do for now.
In time I'd like to get a good set of tires for a clay track, some buggy tires for off-road bashing, and a 3670 or 3674 motor for smoother power delivery. Some nice updates to look forward to.
Still finishing up the build, but wanted to share some pictures cause I'm stoked for how it's turning out!
