General RC Information
Hi there everyone, How's it going? Here's a build i didn't think i would ever get to do and a car i didn't ever think i would ever get the chance to own but here it is. I bought a NOS (New old stock) Arrma Vendetta i wanted one ever since i first saw one but didn't scoop one up back when they were $200 last year. I still wanted one after that and just how things fell i was able to buy the Slider, Tires, Servo, Body from eBay and Amazon last month and this month as of September 2024 i bought a stock esc and motor combo and fixed the diff issues but still need to test and run the car soon.
Here's some pics.
Here's an underbody pic.
