I like the looks of this one the best by far:



Looks mean. And the Robotronics body seems to complement those type of tires much better than Slash bodies or the like. I think the fender shape makes all the difference...

I love how you cut the badlands to fit 4inch VTRs!!! Can we have a step by step? Everybody hates how badlands have soo much sidewall collapse. Oops really old post! BTW great truck!

You will need:

. Proline Badland Tires
. Proline VTR Truggy Rims
. AKA truggy inserts

Cut of 15-16mm from each sidewall of your badland tires.


picture from Ron2 (offroad-cult)

Place the aka inserts inside your tires. Fit them over the rim. It's a tight fit. And glue your tires on the rim. And your done.

Look at the pictures on the first page of this thread^- you just need to make an L-shaped bracket for the motor to mount to & add a battery tray along the other side of the chassis, after removing all the nitro parts ( engine, fuel tank etc )...
