Working on the truck now. I decided to cut off the frame four inches, because it's going to take 40 acres to turn this rig around. Looks much better now... I got the 3d printed c15 cat from exclusive rc, and i like how the motor fits into the hollow of the engine. Plus it's a true 1/14 scale. A lot of guys are using the cast iron norscot model, but that's a 1/10 scale. Plus I was able to still tuck in the steering and gearbox sevos where they belong in the front, which is tough to do with the norscot one. I got the truck going and steering now....need to work on the hood and speakers....

I bought this gear shift aluminum template off ebay and hot glued it into my dx6i radio. I think it's a must for this radio because it keeps the servo in a particular gear without you having to worry that the stick will move slightly into the center and switch gears on you in the middle of driving. On the dx6i, the left stick wants to move into the left and right center, but not up and down. With this template the stick has to stay in place without you having to hold it.
