This project started with an Astute box full of spare parts plus a generous parts lot sent to me by F2Stu. Thanks again Stu. It's a real mix of Astute, Madcap and Super Astute Parts. Astute chassis, front suspension mount, shock towers, gearbox, upper suspension arms and steering. Madcap front and rear C hubs, lower suspension arms and rear arm mounts. Super Astute front support brace, front steering knuckle arms and battery tray. Egress wing stay thanks to TamiyaEra. Hi-Cap dampers were a must have of course.
Power comes from an 80A WP EZRun ESC and 10t motor running a 19t steel pinion on 77t spur gear. I should have it finished soon but thought I would show it as a project. Thanks for looking.
I'm loving my re-re Ford F-150 TA-02T Truck at the moment but I just can't leave anything alone. I have a few ideas kicking around like Manta Ray or Hummer suspension to overcome the narrow track first. Then maybe buggy wheels so it's a bit like a 4WD Stadium Blitzer or F-350 Hi Lift tyres, (not sure). Ultimately the goal is wider, better, faster, stronger and no I'm not going to sell it and buy a Slash
