Again I’m not a fan of the small electronics plate and no receiver box. But so far it’s been fine on the Buggy. And yes everything clears.

On the home stretch. Calibrating was a PITA , not sure why, probably user error. Anyway we’ll see. Maclan gives the choice using a switch or not. For now I’m using the switch, it’s easily removed if I change my mind.

Looking good ! Looking forward to your first drive and feedback on it . I have only built one X-ray , SCX , and it is very good .

Shocks will be zero rebound/Bladder. I usually lean towards Emulsion but we’ll see how this rolls.

Stock set up 550cst front, 450cst rear.

Gotta love technology

AKA I-Beam is my choice for now . Took it for a few zips up and down the street in front of my house. WOW! Definitely a contender! Looking forward to talking it to the track.

Would be interesting to see how this layout corner balances, vs a single battery layout.

I had one X-ray years ago. I think it was a XB8e 15’ year edition and it was an amazing buggy well built and it was a true spectacle to drive. I was not great at the track and it made me look good ! Can’t wait to see how you like this amazing truggy at the track, it looks great and top tier of a build thats for sure. I-Beams are great tires I run them on my buggies they have good tread life and great traction

Same here, my driving skills have room for improvement depending on where I’m at. I’m in the process of painting a couple of bodies. One is a Tessman Patriot , the other is a Xray “Bruggy”. Life and local heat are keeping me from the track for now.
