Arctic Cat ZRT

Decided to get back into crawling after a few hiatus. The other year I rebuilt my 1/10 Unimog with portals and never even ran it.

Few weeks ago I decided to sell my 1/14 RC Hydraulic dozer to fund a new build, the rest is going to get a 1:1 car trailer on the road for my pro street car.

Once Cross RC released the DC8 I couldn't resist. The kit is a bit pricey but boy is it worth it. Between the prototypical drivetrain/suspension to all the electronics they included. It definitely is work the price. Planning on making at trial/rally truck out of it. Seem to be quite popular chassis for it over in Europe.

Didn't have to provide to much to finish the build, but what I did supply so far is below:

1. 3 ShiftRC XB servos (2 for steering, the other for shifting)
2. A HW 1080WP ESC I had laying around (would like to upgrade to the HH BL eventually)
3. CrawlerInnovations Deuces Wild single stage foams (vented the tires)
4. RadioLink 6 Channel pistol grip radio

The truck came with a very nice electronics setup and even a 10AMP bec. The included boards control the light system and even isolates the two steering servos that are powered through the include bec at 8.4 volts. Rest of the system runs on 6V from the ESC bec.
