Its been a long time since I have posted pics of my build. So, here is the completed car and setup, only ran once in a parking lot, and it is quick!!!!
I was checking out bodies on this forum, and sort of copied one style I liked that I could do with rattle cans, turned out ok. I may look at a exotek conversion down the road.


I love atomic carbon stuff, it would be neat to see something in the mini catagory from them!!! :lol:

12/55 gearing
losi 7400kv motor
Castle creations micro mamba pro
Hitec hs65mg servo
Reedy 1800mah 2cell lipo.
DP draglink and shock retainers
BB steering linkage
RPM bumper
More to come as stuff breaks

As promised.....

This is of the buggy - shell done by Jon Miller
5717

Complete graphite chasis by 3racing, 3racing shock towers front and rear, and DP delrin steering upgrade.
5718

It is powered by a Losi Xceliron 7400Kv brushless system.
5719

I have not yet run the buggy, so not sure how it will handle.....let's hope it goes well :p:p

I like the mamba pro, mostly because it has a case so mounting is easier. You can stop the cogging by getting some high quality batteries, preferably a high "C" rating like 20c lipo like the 1800mah 2cell 20c reedy one.

Nolan, that is one sweet rc18b, I love the body, puts mine to shame!!!!

I took mine to the hobby store yesterday to show the guys there, and I raced his Recoil pro in the parking lot back and forth (mine is faster lol), after about 5 min my rear tires are going bald in the middle, it was the second time I have driven it lol.
