Spent some time on the mini truggy when I got home this afternoon. I think it’s more or less ready to go. I pulled the HW ESC out of the stadium truck and soldered it in here. It really freed up a lot of space. I shortened the wires going to the receiver too. I still need to address the transponder wire but I need to get my heat shrink from my shop first. Other than that, it turned out really clean.
I also installed a few option parts that I felt were weak points in the kit. Exotek steering rack, bell cranks, rear center diff mount and center diff cap with replaceable spur. It’s 48p too! Now I only need to carry one set of pinions for all of them.
Before with the castle esc crammed in there:

Still have decent access to the power button too.
Ready to rip! I’m thinking of taking it to the little park a few blocks over for a few test laps tomorrow if the weather is as nice as it was today.

That’s rad! Added to the wishlistLooking nice. If you like clean wiring take a look at this. I used this ESC tray/rx box in my EB410.2

Solder wire, not fingerSoldering is painful and ugly for me.
I learned that the hard way. Burned myself. Turned into a blister. Popped it. All healed up now. That was 2 weeks ago.Solder wire, not finger
