--HPI-Killers Axial Wraith Thread--

I never get to use that, so I had to....

Lol I am getting closer to some pictures, I have the wheels weighted, and the tires siped, but am currently trying to rig up a 3 pos. switch to do on/off/on with lights but almost done, lol thanks for throwing that emot in haha.

So we are still waiting, where the pics, LOL!!!!!!

I'm sorry i ran into a real problem rigging the lights to the switch. 1 side of the switch works for on without light, when i flip to the other on side, nothing. Do I have to run +/- from the esc on/off to the light side of the switch, or a +/- line from the rx?

Lol this is how far I am from a nice posing shot.




Here is my toggle setup, the red wire coming up off the switch into nothing there I was seeing if running power from the + side that works over to the lights + side, but nothing yet. Would I have to run +/- to the lights side?

I noticed your other thread first and hope it makes sence to you...

Nice Loring! You finally got it. What happened to the body? Does it come with one?

Comes with panels doesn't it???

Yeah its stripped down while I figure everything out, I took them off to adjust my shocks as I have heard is best for stock setup. I can't freakin figure this out!!

Okay, both center tabs of the toggle were + from the esc, the + from the lights and - from the esc to one end, and the - from the lights to the other end, works great but got it mounted back in before I thought of pics....

Now I can get my baby back together and snap some nice pictures, I'm like HPIGuy, I build the suspense

Lol okay I take my last post back.... When the toggle is on with lights mode, I have no steering and the lights pulse when I turn left or right on the TX. I dont understand what would cause this since there is nothing affiliated with the steering with what I have done.... Any ideas? Pictures tomorrow morning

that is odd!!! unless all the messing around loosend something.. but i dont know if that would explain it either... I will think about this one and let you know what I figure out!!

Man that thing is sweet! I really dig the look of these, good thing I haven't had any RC car urges lately.

Thanks HPI I am going to take some decent pictures now. I can't wait to put this thing on the rocks.

Okay, I said screw the toggle switch idea, I just rigged up 1 switch for on/off and one for the lights, and it works great with all switches concealed, decided to hit the trail in the rain because it was very close to me and was way to stormy to hit the rocks. So this is her and my maiden voyage! All I can say for this rig, with how I have it set up stock, is wow, siped tires did great for brand new, the suspension was fantastic with the setup on them, and the strength of the steering isnt too bad wither considering the plastic steering link.

Here we go!...



Took the wife and son with so she could exercise and follow me and my wraith lol, she had fun






Me & my son Aiden








& then the camera died....

Hope this was good enough for yall lol.

Nice pics bro, thanks for sharing...

Thanks Lloyd, this rig was ALMOST as fun as my EEM AX10, way funner than all my other scale rigs for sure, and not quite as expensive yet as my XR10 got lol.

nice pics man!!!! I have to wait for my new driveshafts to come in until my scale rig is back up and running again which sucks cause My new tires come in tomorow...

For an Axial scaler I assume? hopefully you upgraded to MIP shafts of something out of a hardened steel or titanium, IMO, MIP makes the best shafts for Axial

yeah its an axial rcx10 honcho truck it has a ford bronco top on it now I figured I would upgrade since they snapped where the plastic part met with the metal part I didnt like the half metal \half plastic shafts from the beginning... plus I put a lift in it so they got extended alittle bit and I dont think they liked it.. but I wanted the 2.2's on it for more clearence... looks bad ass woth the lift and bigger tires!!! I have mud slingers comin in tomorrow.. they look wicked cool!!! I am also getting a stock yota lookin top for it friday.. I think after this is done where I want it I am going for a comp crawler next..
