use the ezrun ESC's and 3500-4300kv motors
don't use the vxl ESC's because you don't have as many tweaking options

I never thought about that...Do I need the 60a or 120a EZrun esc? ive heard the VXLs dont have many options but people have told me they are good systems..

2 60amp is ok to run, 2 120amp is if your racing and hardcore or running 3s more than 2s
I'd say no to 2 of the 30amp units.

Hay Gavyn I have a question about your rims on your trucks. Did you paint them? If so how did you get them to look so glossy?

Here are sum more pics for your viewing pleasure.....

New shock setup..the old way it was mounted was putting sum stress on the axles so this setup should help

Tom (TXT-2.0) told me to cut this cross brace in the front and back to allow for full suspension travel...

Yea Bari is the man!!!


The idea for the body on this truck has changed so many times and i cant make up my mind ....I was gonna use the Summint Racing Bigfoot but I wanna use that on the Terminator I picked up...so Im back to the drawing board again ....I thought about a custom painted body not modeled after a real truck....Any Suggestions????? lol

Ok Finally got the body in lol......El Toro Locoooooooo!!!

Bought the body off ebay a while ago and had Kris at Darkside Designs paint it up for me and he did an excellent job!! he did another one for me too that will make its debut on a Terminator chassis later....

Bari was the reason I did this body..he is a great guy and has been a huge influence on my RC MTS and my quest to join the sport...Thanks Man!
