New mods!
« on: June 28, 2007, 10:15:47 pm »
Installed some new mods today, damn - this thing is getting expensive  :confused:  Oh well, still cheaper than the real thing......

What you dont see are new springs, thicker shock oil, and a single serve steering conversion (They come stock with 2 servos to steer, I trimmed it down to one - using 1 "hitech" servo)

Handles a lot better now, and turns on a dime.

I mainly got the wing to save the cooling head from getting banged up when its on its top... but it spiced it up a bit.

Before and after:

'06 Yamaha Raptor
'08 Pontiac G8 GT

Looks good man. I wanted a revo so I could put a wing on it. They just don't look right on the T-maxx..
