New Slayer wannabe project...

[BrianG]

Thanks for the link! Wow, those add a heck of an offset. I'll see how the regular buggy tires look first. My MBX5 has a tentative delivery date of 7/28 (monday) so I'm getting anxious to start!

I got a Futaba servo - can't remember the exact model, but it has close to 200oz-in torque and .15 sec speed @ 6v. Also got another Spektrum receiver (man, the DX3r was a good investment!), and a Slash body.

In the meantime, I'm trying to finish up the Ofna UltraGTP project I started a while back. I hate working on too many projects at once. Started making the battery trays and came up with a design that allows different size lipos, but that's a subject for the other thread.

Still need to pick up a Neu motor and a 6s battery pack and I think the F-Slayer (faux slayer) will be done. May need some nuts/bolts and some new CVD to make the MBX look shiny and new but that can wait.
