RCO

Since i gave my Yeti away to a buddy, i was surprised how well this truck do his job and how versatile it is.
Coming from MT bashers and still own a E-Revo and a 3.3 with OS engine, it was time to get a new Rock Racer.
IFS was a must and so i pulled the trigger on a Rock Rey BND.

First Mod was to replace the Shocks with the PL i still had laying around from my Yeti.
These Shocks work damn good and are a nice upgrade to the RR.
I run 25WT/yellow/yellow ind the front and 35WT/ yellow upper/green in the rear.

After a first fun ride out, this maiden run shows up the next candidate to replace: the Motor/ESC.
The RR cogs and sounds like he eats gears for breakfast...

Ordered a Tekin PRO4 HD/3000kv and installed a MambaX and a CC Bec2.0 to power the new servo.
Didn’t drive it, but the drivetrain sounds muuuuuch smoother and no weird clicking.

Also i replaced the stock rims and mounted the stock tires on some chanquish rims.
The inner ring makes the tires a bit firmer, as the foam has „less space“ in the tire.






Made a mounting plate for the ESC/Bec:



Installed:



Now i have to wait for some Vitavon parts and lucky me, i ordered the Vitavon linkage kit.
Yesterday i installed the Losi linkage kit and this thing @40 bucks is a absolute rip off!!!
Not worth a dollar


Thanks for watching!
