Powerhobby Scorpion XL belted, I ordered black wheels but they sent blue. No big deal actually because there is a blue streak on the green body so with green hubs it may look pretty decent.
These things are massive... :eek:

Well, here's part of her. I have to order another motor mount, this one I bought doesn't work with the HW 1100kv. I would have to use a pretty big pinion with the 54t spur and I don't want that. The base of the mount is too thick so the motor won't drop down far enough to use smaller pinions.
I'm also still waiting on the servo, rear diff cover, and the other gear covers. I am running to the hardware store in the morning for some fiber tape and shoe goo for the body.
She is massive. I just never realized how huge she really is..

I bought this motor mount but I'll have to de-anodize it. It's the only one they had.

I like the blue but that's not cool at all to send the wring ones. The black would look so much better on the 🐸 👍👍
 
I'm not worried about it at all bro.
Yeah I get that. It's just the point of lazy as*hat people doing their jobs correctly.. they look cool on the truck though.. get some dirt on them won't even notice anymore 😉🤣🤣🤣🤣👍👍

They asked me if I wanted to send them back and they would send the black ones or get a $20 refund. I took the $20.
 
Thanks @Quip , I've been too damn busy on my house to get out and run her for the first time.
You're like me. Too many irons in the fire. I hope you can make a run vid so Breydon can see it. I showed him your finished truck and he loved it. Then when I called him last night I told him about the parts I ordered for ours and he got pretty excited. It's definitely going to be one of his favorites.
 
We have been getting quite a bit of rain the last few days. I hope it dries up some before the snow hits.
