New LST owner

[SMaxxin]

My LST finally got here! The body is junk but I knew that but the rest of it looks great! It has a Picco .26 in it and this thing flat out screams, it will lift the big Moab 40's very easy....I must say I'm impressed so far. It also handles much better than expected, I though because of the size it might be a little clumsy but WOW!

I only got to run one tank before it got dark, I'll run it more tomorrow and try to post up a few pics.

Just wait till you try racing it. You'll love it.

Congrats on the new truck dude.

Love mine.

IMO the upgrades should be FOC,gearing, Aluminum diff housings then servos. RPM arms can be done as they break.

Congrats man.

It already has the aluminum diffs front and rear, Hitec 645 steering servos, and RPM arms front and back. I ran it and never tried reverse...To be honest I forgot that it had reverse LOL, I'll look into the FOC. What gearing are you running and with what engine? From the one tank I ran the gearing seemed good, but I bought it used so it might not be the stock gearing.

Just wait till you try racing it. You'll love it.

I gave up racing a while back, this one will be a yard cruiser.

The best LST I had, I don't have and it ran stock gearing. Just the FOC. I suggest a better pipe. I used an OS 2040 with an On road header and it really woke the engine up in the higher RPM band. The acceleration was better but not much. IMO run the engine till she gives and then drop in something bigger.

The Picco .26 screams but I'm already looking at the Axial .28 thats in my Savage...I see a transplant in the near future.

I ran it again today, I can't believe how well it handles
