Default My Kyosho Rigs

First one is a fo-xx, set up for speed and it's great on 4s.
Running it bone stock and it has held up to some pretty heinous bashing, needless to say my wraith didn't fare as well and cost quite a bit more!

The body is the proline slash one, it has seen a few lives before this one and just happened to fit this one with little work.



Wheels and tires are 17mm sct wheels from de-racing with deuces wild foams cut to fit and of course 2.2 rock beasts. The rings I had laying around from locked up rc.





Now I was so impressed with this truck, when I snagged a bone stock wraith I didn't see myself dumping money into the ar60's (again). So I grabbed new set of axles for $110 and began the process of fitting them to my wraith.

I'm using two short sides of the housing, and laser cut myself a set of 'shark fins' from 1/8 delrin. Seems strong enough when braced with a bolt going all the way through. However this set doesn't clock the axle quite where I want it, so a new set will be made.


I'm using arrma senton cvd's on all 4 corners, they don't quite fit but I've got some thinner bearings on the way that should make it work.

Here she is as she sits now, using losi 8 rear shocks all around (re valved for crawling) and with the stock links still in place.

Pardon the funky knuckle


Driveshafts have got me stumped at the moment, I really want to run MIP's but I'm not sure I can drill their 6mm ends out to 8mm.

More to come, can't wait to get it running
