It all began when I saw this:
...and immediately went like this:
So the next thing I knew, I ended up here:
Fresh out the box. I'm going for more of a "super scale touring car" than outright speedrun build (probably with some occasional speedrun messabout throw in there) due to all of the usual constraints: I don't wanna drop $$$ on a powertrain, long stretches of non-destroyed pavement are few and far between around here, etc.
So I'm just dropping in the electronics that have been pulled out of other rigs: the Spektrum ESC/motor combo from the Kraton, the MKS550 that got swapped for a direct-power in one of my crawlers, and an Aitronics MX-3, left homeless after parts-binning an old Slash build.
Got plenty of 3S packs on hand, bud a big hole in my M1 pinion assortment, not owning anything bigger than a 19T. The Seven65 shell is still "pre order" status on Amain, I put my order in about 2 weeks ago. In the meantime, I'll just use the Limitless body for messing around and testing setup.
Haven't had a dedicated on-road since I sold off my last sedan in like 2012. Definitely gonna be interesting.
