My Jato 3.3: Finally bulletproof!

Bought it 3 years ago, stopped for 2 years and now I got it all hooked up to the point it's rugged as hell...

Now that i finally have pics of mine in one piece...



Mini-T,
AL rear control arms, front hubs, battery tray, servo holder
Rollcage
Bearings
TI turnbuckles (not in pic)
on my 2nd steering servo
Losi oil shocks
Losi diff
Losi CVDs
Some very worn out dirt tires
RPM front bumper
BRP front chassis brace
.... the list goes on.

I had to buy all the goodies, 'cause this is what it looked like couple weeks back. Me and a friend hit the skate park. While the halfpipe was childs play, neither truck took the flight out of the bowl very well.



Going back this week, here's hoping it holds up this time! I have 2 more plastic chassis to break before i start making my own from exotic materials.

You're selling the wrong one bud, take my word for it. I had a monster of a 5B, $4k in upgrades, it was a famous car in the hobby. Google 'Stealth Bajomber', it was murdered out, you'll find it. Anyway, even after taking it to the limit, my FG MB pro was still more fun to drive. Now 4wd is starting to take over 5th scale, racing classes are starting all over the world. You can get a 4wd conversion for that Marder for like $400, and then it will just blow the 5b out of the water in every conceivable way.

I'll post pics later, crappy network here in the office.

My most recent RC purchase - a Kyosho MiniZ with an S2000 body. The chassis is a tad larger than an iPhone. Amazing speed! With a bit of practice you can drift them! Its a fully proportional RC system, but its AM - I wish it were 2.4G.
Other than this, I have not found any RC S2000's (that are still in production). If you know of any, please post - I'd love to get one. I understand HPI has a body that will fit one of their electric chassis', but I can't find the body!!
