NB's SCX10 Rubi thread

[Nitrobuzzard]

Yea I thought about those @hamz9561. Do you have foams in them?

 

[hamz9561]

Yeah, they came with foams, so I went ahead and ran them. Since it has the RC4WD 2-speed I think this rig needs them.

 

[HPIguy]

I liked the swampers in the 1.9 as well (not a fan of the 2.2 so much), and with the shift hubs, they looked just right IMO. I like the tires to stick out just a bit past the flares.

 

[Nitrobuzzard]

That's cool and I'm sure they do need them.....lol

I installed the Mamba Sidewinder SCT Pro with 3800Kv 4-pole motor in it yesterday, definitely too much for it....lol Need to find me a TC4 for that system...

@HPIguy , Great pic brother! Looks good....

 

[HPIguy]

Thanks NB, she was a great rig, I hope the new owner is enjoying her as much as I did.

 

[Nitrobuzzard]

As @hamz9561 would say, pics or it didnt happen, I'll post a few. The first 3 ops are done on the wheels, hope to get setup and running the last OP today. Enjoy

More to come...

 

[hamz9561]

Looks good so far.

 

[Nitrobuzzard]

Getting ready for final setup hehe

 

[Nitrobuzzard]

Trial part completed, now to get home and test fit

-NB

 

[Nitrobuzzard]

Like a glove. Now to find some fat tires for it and to finish the rest of them Monday. Ignore the messy table. Lol

 

[Nitrobuzzard]

Ok, so I couldn't wait until Monday lol. Went in this morning and finished them. Now for tires and pics. Still unsure of what tires I want. I like the Swampers, but a few others have caught my eye too. Decisions decisions decisions

 

[hamz9561]

The Pitbulls are pretty nice, too.

 

[Kris407]

Great looking Crawlers, guys. Almost makes me want to buy one!

 

[Nitrobuzzard]

@Kris407 I didn't think I would like them much as I've always been a speed nut. But, I have proven myself wrong, I love these things lol

I've had 4 now, 3 Axial and the Trail Finder 2. This Rubicon is by far my favorite. If you get one one, let me know, I may have a few extra pays lying around that you can't buy from the LHS.

@hamz9561 Yea I've been eyeballing those as well. Had a set on my Wraith, very nice tires.

 

[Nitrobuzzard]

Decided to throw the stockers on there just to see how they were going to look, still haven't decided on what set to go with.

I lowered it down a little more, looks a bit more scale I think.

 

[Nitrobuzzard]

Another one...

Finally found the pic of the battery plate and RX plate that i've been looking for. Here they are both completed and mounted.

 

[SchrodeMode]

That thing looks great man, it makes me want to start messing with my Wraith again.

 

[HPIguy]

Wow, nice work NB!

 

[Nitrobuzzard]

Thx guys!

Next will be some custom bumpers maybe....not sure which way I'll go with it next...lol

I do know I want a winch on it and maybe a roof rack

-NB

 

[Nitrobuzzard]

Done up another set of wheels for it with center caps. Old school...
