Hey Rolex don't forget to do a complete disasembly so you can get all the sand out of the little cracks and stuff, the sand is hard on parts, NOT!!!! you just keep changing the color and lay out of the comforter. LMFAOTG!!!!!!!!

No, I actually like the orange. I'm about to paint the new frame rails, and it's now a toss-up between flat black or spraying them white and then doing several coats of transparent Hard anno orange to match the aluminum.

It's up and running!
Finished installing all the electronics in it last night, and had it traveling along the floor without being on my hands and knees.

Wow! Look at that front tire, I don't think he's kidding! It looks like it actually HAS rolled on the floor, under power still questionable

The ESC and the receiver were mounted on the side frames, and the plate that came stock with the AX-10 was eliminated. Note, also, the battery is mounted sideways under the belly. Very low center of gravity.

No way, that's just lint from the comforter.

LMAO!!
Sure there's lint on them, but I bought those wheels from SMaxxin, and he had made one run with his hi-lift, so they even had some dirt between the lugs. I left it there because it really added detail to that 'scale' look I was going for.
