Hi Guys I have a build that I completed with my son a few years back and you all were super helpful. Essentially it is a neo scorcher with monster wheels. I have upgraded the differentials with the DF02 metal gears and I have a tble02s esc with a Speed Passion V3.0 Competition BL 21.5T. I am looking to increase the speed now my son is very competent with it. So the questions are: If I move to a 17.5t or 13.t turn brushless motor, should I upgrade the ESC or just get a cooling fan on the current tble02s? Should I also upgrade the driveshaft to a metal one and metal spur gear? As a further question, I am looking for a next build for my daughter (5). I am thinking either another tt02b, or another build with a lot of cross over parts (DF02?) or just something else entirely, any recommendations? Thanks!

So ive been knocking together a Sand Hopper, this required body mounts, they attach using regular tamiya screws to the regular mounting holes on the chassi. To fit the shell i trimmed down the point of the chassi to the level of the bumper mounts and notched the bottom of the front of the beetle shell maybe 3mm. (ignore the hole in the battery compartment, it is unrelated to mounting the shell, my 2s 5000mah battery didnt fit so i removed the rear wall of the compartment and cut the hole in the top so the power/balance leads are protected inside of the tub.) Files are oriented for maximal strength when printed, the prints will require supports. ADDITION: Made a cover for the point of the chassi, file attached. SandHopperShellMounts.zip frontcover05.zip
