Build Thread Traxxas Raptor R... from the ground, up.

[9x19]

My 2WD Raptor was getting really lonely, so I decided to convert my Street Slash to the bigger version.

It's a bit of organized chaos...

Looking forward to seeing this build. .

I thought the Raptors were 4wd. Those Pro-Line big bores I see there?

The original Raptor is a 2WD Slash, this larger (Pro Scale) Raptor R they came out with a couple years back is a stretched 4WD Slash (15" WB)

The shocks are Losi, from their Lasernut / Tenacity Pro models.

Love watching a slider project come together. Be a good build thread to follow. -AC

Made a bit of progress today.

Finished the electronics transfer, and the smoke-test went well.

I really like their new clipless body mounts.

Looks great. How does it run with the new electronics?
