CJ's Arrma Outcast 8s EXB Build Project

Hi there everyone, Here's the build showcase for my V1 EXB Outcast 8S Roller i bought this truck in Summer of 2023 during the Christmas in July sale for $400 brand new straight from Horizon Hobby even during their site maintenance. I got it all up and running in Winter 2023 with a stock V2 EXB ESC the V2 Firma 160 and an 1,100kv hobbywing 5687 motor but it's similar to the V2 RTR's motor along with a PowerHD 65kg Servo and my Radiolink radio system. And it's been a beast to the point where i considered selling my old unreliable X-Maxx and sticking to this truck. Just recently i put in a brand new straight out of a new EXB RTR Spektrum Firma 160a v2 ESC and a new SR6200A avc receiver to bind up to my DX6C. This truck now runs amazing and will rip a wheelie straight down my road from a standstill.

Here's a current picture of her on my deck.
