I was phening for the 2.0 when I saw the announcement of its arrival. I couldn’t even go to sleep without thinking how I was going to work that baby into my budget. Well doing all the math over about 2 weeks between another eb48.3 or .4, a new sct410 2.0, or a .3, I decided to pick up a used .3 on eBay. Superb deal for a hardly used fine piece of equipment. other than the diffs were leaking everywhere, it was in great shape.
I began tearing it down to rebuild diffs. Easy peasey I’ve done this before, just added the aluminum cross pins for durability.
I am still figuring out what my powertrain will be, and I don’t have a servo for it. I do however have a readily available body for it, the trail boss! The flo tek it came with is all beat up so to the trash you go.
I have already priced out the necessary parts to put the new 13mm shocks with 16mm springs together like the 2.0 is equipped with. Oh boy, at about $170, that will be a slow gathering over time.
For now I will borrow a max10 3660 combo for power and pickup one of nsdrc’s servos.
