She looks great. Theres just something about 1/5 scale that really gets me interested again.
 
Can't wait to see you having a blast, and some feedback on it..!!

Two issues I see though, wow that battery tray is way too close to the spur for my liking and the dished wheels, I hope they have some STRONG glue holding them tyres on at 12s.!!

Did it come as in the pictures? I'm asking as my roller was basically a gas car with no engine, so I have lots of parts I didn't need, like an exhaust pipe, fuel tank, etc etc it did come with 30DN beadlock wheels though.

Great choices for the Taylor parts :cool: :thumbs-up:
I love mine, it's nuts crazy fast for the size, goes pretty much over any terrain I throw at it..

Oh for sure! I’m excited.

I thought the same but with the right packs and making sure they’re secure enough, it should be a problem… hopefully. As for the wheels, I plan on getting some hex extenders and running some proline badlands. Although nobody has seen to have a problem with these stock tires, they feel very good quality and the bead of glue appears to be very tight unlike some manufacturers. Most people run these on 8-12s so I’m hoping all should be good for a little bit.

Yes, it came as shown in the pictures. The was the electric conversion roller option. So it’s completely ready to go, just have to add your own electronics.

I was looking at upgrades and I figured these were the most reasonable purchases at the moment to strengthen it up and protect it.
Love to hear it! I’m super excited to get this big rig moving! The ground clearance it has is awesome, definitely gonna be able to handle pretty much any terrain.

Oh and it will.
The xmaxx tires are supposed to fit very well on these
 
I don't really care for the chunky big block tire treads; they don't do as well as pins or small block treads in my terrain. That is my particular terrain though.

OMG.. There's no way Xmaxx tyres will hold up to 12s, although it would be fun to see them turn into pizza cutters then explode.!!
I can't even keep tyres on the rims on my stock 8s Xmaxx šŸ˜‚

Here's mine earlier in the summer when it decided it wanted to eject the foams out of the beadlock wheels..!! šŸ˜‚ The stock tyres are awesome for my conditions I run on..
