i spent a quite a few hours this weekend building the Stealth, and at the same time cleaning up my Clod and cannibalizing it for parts (both steering servos, both lathe motors and the 4 big bore shocks). i don't have electronics installed yet - i'm waiting on an order for 4mm male bullet connectors for the motor connections, and i can throw the MM in as well as the spektrum rx.

i didn't care for the tires it came with, so i ordered the big 'ole jumbo claw dawgs. it's a good bashing tire, but i thought it would have more bite. turns out the tires the Stealth came with look like they'll have excellent bite (it's really soft rubbery material) so i may get another set of wheels to mount them to and have a set of bashing tires and a crawling tires.

she's beastly... the articulation is incredible for a big 1/8 scale rig







here's some shots of the Stealth next to the JPS clod crawler - big, big difference
