Xte monster truck build begins

[Knuckles]

I finally started to build my xte now that I have some time.


I so far have the 7075rc chassis, hubs etc..., rc monster battery trays, FLM front/rear outer drives, FLM center drive components. Leopard motor (might use 2028 motor instead). Here is some build pics. More to come, waiting on some custom parts from Ol'fart that should be here this week.

Ugh cant figure out to do more than one pic at a time
