FR Ray's truck

[FR Rayward]

Hey folks! Here's my build thread. It started out by me buying a cheap Savage Flux roller off ebay, without shell, tires or shocks. I put the electrics from my late E-savage into it, with a thought to upgrading later. The motor actually goes really well, but the kv is a bit too high for a heavy truck like the flux. The stock HP motor will probably be bought soon, I'm gonna miss my trusty Medusa.. Other bits and pieces have been added, and I'd like to get a CF LCG standard length chassis soon too. I use my truck for jumping mainly. Mostly at the bmx track, some trail and paddock bashing too. Specs are:

- Savage Flux HP
- Medusa 36-60-3100kv motor
- Castle MMM V3
- 4S 6000mah run packs, 5S speed packs
- PRC LCG towers, wing mount
- BP diffs
- Badlands on 3/4 Ofna offset rims, dyed black
- Hellfire shocks (perfect length for towers!)
- Towerpro servo (quite crap ehh)
- Relocated electronics
- Integy Rear carriers
- HPI Hellfire or Proline Baja bug body (painted)
- Wing, wheelie bar
- Futaba 2.4g

I think thats it. Now for pics! Please excuse the mud!!

Here's a video of a speed run http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rKxCHZY18lM on 5S, sorry no jumping videos yet.


Enjoy! Please comment!

Very happy. They are the perfect size, I've always liked a low set truck. A few small mods you have to do to install them, and the wing mount's a bit of a pain, but after that they work brilliant.



Thanks for the comments!

Give this man a prize! Haha, I was waiting for someone to spot that. I was hitting dirt jumps with the truck yesterday, over boosted, 15ft to flat.. next attempt was better, 10 ft to flat.. that happened. Fixed it this morning, and went for another sesh just now.
