I had a ton of stuff leftover from my Wraith build, and found this on another site as a roller for $100. I knew I was going to take the motor and ESC out of the Wraith also, and my trans would bolt right up, so why not. This will be all about what I can scrounge from stuff taken from the Wraith, and out of my parts bin, and I'll be keeping track of total cost as I go. I hope to have it going by weeks end.
So far, here's where I'm at;
The roller; Bender SWX chassis, AX10 axles, beadlocks, HB Rovers, Losi alloy shocks, bug body and all links and mounts = $100 shipped
Wraith trans with Robinson 13/87 gearing and HH 35T torquemaster pro / BR-XL ESC = free, already had them that I removed from the Wraith
Savox SC-0251 servo = $39.99, bought for the SC10, didn't fit
So I'm at $140 so far, and shooting to keep it under $200 if possible. It's an older chassis, but should still be good fun on the rocks, and more importantly the AX10 axles still have parts availability. My old TLT axled rig, parts are getting hard to find.
