Better than Brent’s IMO, and I’ve ran both.. 🤘

If you decide to go with it-shoot me a PM, and I’ll send you a coupon code for 10% off your order. 😜

I've got plenty for the rest of this year but come spring ill get at ya on it 😎

BTW. There is a build in the works. Not the tekno yet. Ill be looking into building the tekno come tax season 🤪
You will approve though. Even if it is an Arrma 🤫
 
I found this x4.6 while looking for a parts savage x. My wife bought it for me for Christmas. It came exactly as described. Which is rare for a used nitro. Especially considering the price he sold it for.

The .28 big red is basically new. The truck has some issues. Missing some bolts. It has been parted together from several trucks in my opinion. However, whoever did it, did it right. It just needs a little tlc. And, it has a working reverse.


Fun almost a quart through it. Got it tuned up good and run the heck out of it. I’m probably going to change some things on it in the future. But, all in all, I got a great deal on it and, unless a freak issue presents, it came working and working well. Pretty cool considering I’ve got less in this truck than the roller chassis I bought a couple months ago and am still waiting on parts for.

Great present from the wife!!! It flat out hauls the mail too.

I burned some yesterday, does that count? I was trying to tune the low end on the LRP .28 in my MP777 and I'm starting to think there's no substitute for a 3 needle carb.

The LRP carbs are known to have constant issues..
 
I managed to get the Hobao carb in my Inferno working reasonably well so we took it and my son's Rustler out and burnt some nitro. I ended up cartwheeling the Inferno into the grass at medium speed and snapped a turnbuckle. That thing is such a tank, but I love it.

Link it up. I’d like to see it. Thanks
The perspective is cool but I think I'll continue with simple ground footage with sound from now on.. I could've brought my electric maxx as well at this point😅

So do I just suck at online searches or are M5 x 25mm turnbuckles nearly nonexistent now? I'd like to replace this one that I broke but I don't remember where I got it. The Kyosho manual shows these as plain threaded rods, so the OEM part won't replace what I have. Amain and others carry 25mm turnbuckles but with most listings, the diameter is unlisted and when it is, it's not 5mm. It's amazing how sparce product details are these days.
