Simply awesome.

This, along with the RPM and Tekin conversions are about the only RC10 things that I've never wanted, however never owned.

Where were you able to find the conversion parts and Protoform body??

That looks awesome! Are those the cells you got from me? If so they look excellent.

Thanks! Indeed they are. I just stripped off the outer heat shrink and bars, and cleaned up the flux with auto brake cleaner.

is there still positive caster? Maybe use some 30 degree c-hubs so you get a bit of negative caster.

I'd flip the upper front control rod balls to the front of the c-hub so it's on less of an angle.

otherwise this is one sick build. I love it.
