Any updates? I'm dying to see the finished truck. I did a similar conversion to my Sportwerks Turmoil but I really like the D8 for it's durability. My Savage and Firestorm are the toughest trucks I've ever owned and I want to have a HPI buggy to add to the collection.
Little update , she is nearly done .
Just need to mount the body and paint it .
Got some black Kyosho MP9 wheels off ebay for 20 US that were being parted from a kit and i think they look great . Attached the emaxx rear skid plate as well , just need to make a simple mount for the RPM silver rear bumper.
Since there doesn't seem to be many dramas with the MMM V3 i decided to use my new MMM V2 .I have downloaded the latest V3 firmware into the V2 and the V3 case is on it's way from CC .
The R1 Pro will now reside in my speed record car .Man it's alot neater without having to run an external bec.
Hooked it all up and took it for a little spin , but i will wait for the V3 case to be fitted before i fully test it out.
Thanks for the compliments guys . Tires are Proline Knuckles as i want to have some drifitng action around corners on the track
Body mounts will be finished today then i just have to paint the body black as i will be using the following skins on it modeled on Troy De Lucas corr truck .
