Loving the improvements so far, and looking forward the future mods! I picked up a 10LSO a couple of weeks ago and looking for any inspiration I can get! :D
I build RCs like people would have done back in the '90s ..................................... if they had 3D printers.

It's pretty well done, just waiting to pick up a couple of items my cousins are refurbishing for me. Then all that's left to do is to drive it poorly, and wreck it in such a fashion that it will never be the same again. You know, the usual...

Finished... mostly. I'd love to have a Gonzo SCR pack to compliment the green Wimpy stocker if anyone has one. Thanks to coxbros1 for rewiring the Novak 410-M5 and TheDiamondOne for restoring the body. Seabass painted the body. It came with it when I bought it from him. Looking forward to running it.

A couple of fresh shots from some other angles. With the weekend upon us I figured everyone would need some pics to get the ladies all in a tizzy. :mrgreen:

I showed my wife and it didn't work for me, but hey, maybe you'll have better luck...

Hope to capture some video this weekend. I'm using the 3M plastic velcro to affix my camera to my radio. It's really strong and leaves no residue when removed. I'm actually using it to hold the battery in also since I don't currently have a proper strap. It's plenty strong for a leisurely drive. If I crash hard enough to jar the battery loose, the lipo is the least of my problems... :lol:
