Not to sound like a peepee but what is like new about this? It looks like a hacked up conversion to me. Where is the fuel tank, engine mount, and engine? Also I woulnt really plan on running those arms for anything more than a couple speed runs on the street. If you are going to be bashing I would ditch them and get some rpm arms.
 
It was an electric conversion.

Also forgot to mention. I traded an arrma fury roller for this thing. Buddy wanted the sct and I wanted a jato platform for my next build.

I coulda traded you a way nicer Jato roller than that thing. That looks like imitation carbon fiber on the arms. Cool new rig but coulda done better.
 
Noone around here wanted an arrma fury sxt around here. People think if it aint traxxas its junk. Thats how people are here.

You couldn't be more wrong actually, and if you stick "around here" long enough, you'll find that out.
 
Ya I ment people where I live at. Sorry. People might be into it on here. But I didnt really try to get rid of it. He just showed up with this jato and few beers later I ended up with it.

If he hasn't done it yet, you'll have to do a single speed conversion, either that or run the mechanical brakes. The arms will last just as long as the stock ones, that's what they are after all, stock arms with a carbon fiber "skin". It also has the lightweight HD chassis, which is a plus. After you get it going, get the RPM arms, and a top plate brace, New Era Models makes a brace also, as well as a roll bar.
 
He has it locked into second if thats what ya mean. If not got a link to the single speed kit? I'm gonna stick with the E-JATO. The carbon fiber arms r cool lookin but yea rpm is on the list. Any motor/esc anyone recomend? Thought about tecon but idk anyone thats ran it before. I'm open to segestions and tips.!

Locked in second should work, if you spin the spur backwards, do the tires spin backwards or does the spur just spin?
 
Right on. I know I'm tired of just looking at it. I want to run it! I can't wait for it to be running.
