This is my very first build of an rc I wanted an rc that could go 40mph do wheelies all day could jump real well and look cartoonishly scale.
Really didn't want to spend much...Found the arrma granite and ecx 10 scale monster. Was a pretty simple decision
First I made the body spent like 3 late nights cutting hand painting the black and spraying it yellow plus stickers
Drove it for like 3 month and blew up a motor
Decided to make it fast next... Put in a new esc and motor and battery
Then I started throwing dogbones. Sent it in To arrma (after making it look stock again)
After I got it back it was still wanting to throw bones. So I got longer bones
Worked for a couple weeks...then didn't
Quit life didn't care anymore...
Waited to see what folks were doing for Like 4 t 5 months about there dogbone issues
Seen somone use team associated parts didn't seem like it was gonna work
Told the build idea to an rc buddy with 100s of cars...said do it
Rebuilt everything
Was working amazing
Then I started blowing shocks...said the heck with it and bought titanium shock
No more issues
Parts list of the blown bus
120a hobbywing waterproof esc
3800kv rocket racing brushless
3s 4000mah venom battery
10a castle bec
Tatic 45x servo
Arrma rx/tx
Integy heat sink
Yeah racing motor fan
Proline trenchers
Fast eddy bearings
Traxxas slash 2wd ultra shocks
50wt shock oil
Duratrax 4in body posts
Parma .6 lexan bus body
100k diff oil
Team associated :B4 diff outdrive B4 cva
B4 bearing carrier
B4 locking wheel hex
This isn't by any means the fastest rc... it isn't the farthest jumper.... It isn't the most scale
What this guy does is make smiles happen... Every time I run it around
Thanks to this forum I have a great working rc that I love to show off
