    Looks like it's handling that pretty good 😉

    How did you accomplish that one? VERY COOL!

    Awesome! But you switched it up on us. I thought the chassis was going on the silver one.

    My chassis arrives tomorrow. I don't know why, but I am pretty excited to get it and start putting it together.

    Thanks. It's like my main hobby sometimes, and modding RC trucks just keeps my printers busy lol. Not really, but sometimes it seems like that. The two hobbies were made for each other. But I can't tell you how many times I've needed something silly and just 3d printed it. Like I needed a small...

    Just tell her all the cool things you could print for her on it. Just browse Thingiverse for ideas to sway her. Cookie cutters, scrapbook stuff, household items, you name it. You can make just about anything with a 3d printer. This housing and servo mount is 3d printed. This entire trailer...

    True, it's done on the real Monster Jam trucks. But I didn't think about it til you mentioned sponsor panels 😉 And I definitely didn't think about doing a clear one. That is just cool af bro. I may just do that as well, but I am going to see how some 3d printed ones work first. I just need to...

    I can't wait til my chassis gets here. I am going to steal your idea for the sponsor panels and 3d print some to put on ours. Heck, I'll probably 3d model the entire chassis. These trucks are just way cool man.

    I freakin love it! I was just thinking about 3d printing some panels to pop on the chassis for the same thing. If you made the black one in two pieces and just put it in the fender openings I think that will solve your problem. Great job man. It's going to look awesome! Where did you get that...

    Have you guys (@Hammer Down, @N. Mango) done anything with your shocks yet? The springs on these trucks are just a tad too stiff for my tastes. Dude, you could mount a mini servo in there and use channel 3 to open and close it since you went to a single speed ;)

    Yeah, I was thinking since my ultimate goal is to build two of these, so Breydon and I can do some Monster Jam style racing, having the 2 speed will be nice for getting the trucks lined up to start. I am still debating on links and steering links. The stock stuff actually looks pretty scale...

    I just noticed FMS has a metal gearset for the transmission, which comes with a metal shift fork. I kinda like the fact that these trucks have the two speed. It will make it nice for getting our trucks lined up for the race 😜 And the portal axles are kinda growing on me. I know they aren't true...

    That is weird. So Furitek's USA site is messed up too... What I found https://www.furitekusa.com/products/furitek-rampart-frame-kit-for-fcx24-max-smasher-aluminium-white-version Your link...

    Well they have the same pic on Furitek's site. The only place that shows the trans mount like yours with the white kit is Amain/Hobbytown.

    Project "Daily Driver" almost done

    Well that explains it. I dunno. Helidirect doesn't say anything about that kit being for the SCX24 transmission. Different sites have different pics for part #2242, which is supposed to be the kit for the Smasher, with nothing stated about an SCX24 trans. Same part numbers, different pics. Who...

    Just in case anyone is looking to buy the Rampart chassis kit... I think I'm going to buy just the white chassis without the links. My only concern is it looks like Furitek changed the design of the skid plate at some point. I also noticed there is an extra piece in the second pic... looks...

    @Hammer Down - what shocks did you get for yours?

    That sucks. Can't get the white pro kit anywhere.

    Where did you order that from? It's on pre-order on HeliDirect.

    By the way... that is the pro chassis kit or whatever right? Does all that come with it? Or are there extra parts purchased there?
