RPM Ultra Molded build

Post by transamman908 »

I started with a new chassis that I found at a car show/swap meet earlier this year. I'm adding some Tecna turnbuckles, HG vlt shocks and a Hydradrive unit to the Steath trans( Thanks Rob for the help with the stealth version instructions 8) .

If things seem under control, you are just not going fast enough.

I got this as far as I would like besides adding a motor. Something about having the body clear on this is cool imo. I had this body for a while and don't know the brand or it's name but it fits nicely on it. Anybody know which body this is? The wing is a buds racing I believe.

Can't beleive how bad they leak. I had them apart I don't know how many times and they seem better, but going to empty them out as I still see slight leakage.

Sweet ride! Are you going to run it, or will it be a shelfer?

Nice build! Jammin Jumper body? I wonder if Traxxas stole the design from Jammin for the Bandit? A fitting name for the car then! :mrgreen:
