Wow awesome job, looks beautiful, I got the black and green been working on. Got that front inner fender well, from scale king, and there're 3-D printed interior , haven't put it in yet. Love the colors looks awesome. I'll be watching for more, happy trailing
Amazing looking rig Keith. I think you are giving me a kick in the pants to get my 1.9 started. Still have not got that going since we spoke😂 Keep staring at a pile of parts!
I was just scrollin around trying to figure out what a Wraith was when I saw your thumbnail and had to pop in to say.. Holy c#@* dude, that thing looks great! You don’t know me from Adam, but I approve.
Yep i had the same issue with my honcho bed side kit from dinky as well and after several emails they reluctantly sent it out but either way cool rig prolly be my next one to buy
Hey thanks for sharing your build. Looks great! I'm knee deep into an Axial AX10 to SCX10 conversion. Nice to know about the Hobbywing set up. I'm looking for a solution for my electronics. Just found and subscribed to your channel.
Beautiful build, great attention to the details and like a lot of us the use of some less expensive upgrades where they work just as well as the high dollar stuff.I used the standard mamba X in a bomber and wasn't very impressed with the drag brake either except for being able to turn it on and off with the transmitters 3rd channel.But i used the mamba micro x in a scx10ii and it works excellent, go figure?
jo jo yeah I wasn’t really trying to be negative about Castle. I’ve used many of their products through the years. I used the mamba in heavy rigs. Probably would have been ok in a lighter rig. I just think Castle could do better after experiencing the axe. I sure appreciate you watching and commenting my brother
I put a similar light rack on mine in the same spot but mine is 4 lights, I think the 5 rack you have looks better. I've beaten the hell out of my light bar from rolling though lol.

I have the Vanquish sway bar but didn’t like how stiff it made the rear end. I found 80wt shock oil and brass knuckles up front completely eliminated any twist
@@fernandocabral6193 could be help on a stock wraith 1.9 with all plastic axles and links underneath I suppose. I never even ran mine stock. Metal axles, steel links, aluminum SSD shocks, and brass knuckles went on before it touched dirt. I bought the swaybar kit after seeing the video of John Holmes recommending it. But it did nothing for mine except limit the flex in the rear. I think weight down low and heavy oil in the shocks are what made mine right. If I punch the throttle both front wheels lift on mine. Virtually zero twist on mine. But setup is all about the driver. I like my crawlers on the heavy side. They react to the terrain more realistically. But weight hurts on extreme vertical climbs. So it’s all about what you are looking to achieve. I really don’t compete with this rig because the cage puts it into class 3 by sorrca rules. Most class 3 rigs are 2.2 rigs and this would have serious handicaps. However it does excellent up against other class 2 rigs when playing around. And you can’t beat how cool it looks on the rocks!
@@krlaturn yeah I saw the same video and it seemed like John's rig had great mobility in the rear it flexed just right while he was operating it over the rock course he has would you happen to know where I can get those decals I just ordered a bunch of BGR stuff yesterday fastback cage front and rear shock towers etc yeah I don't keep any of my rigs stock either his still had the plastic axles and shocks I don't remember if the links were

Hi bud would you happen to have any extra hood hinges I lost one and the only way to get them is to buy a new body cause the parts tree their on comes with the body
@@krlaturn OMG!!! Thank you my address is 1 Buckley Drive #30 Auburn, Ma 01501 that's awesome that saves me $40 plus shipping for a new body Horizon needs to make certain parts available without having to buy something you don't need
mje19D good to hear. I’ve not had an opportunity to try the RX4. Tekin stuff is a little pricey for me. The RX4 is the price of both axe motor and esc.
She looks real good Keith. Excellent choice of parts as always.
You make this truck look SO GOOD! 👍👍👍
Looks amazing🤩 WELL DONE!
Looks great! The paint job and those white wheels 😃👍
The RCNetwork hey Rich, can’t wait to see yours my friend! So far it looks fantastic! Those panels look great!
Bulletproof RC thanks buddy! It’s been a fun process building it. Gotta do something, trying to stay away from all this chaos in the world 😬

Looks nice,sometimes nice build stuff in private and unveil once finished instead of film every step of the way of build.
Bobaque Altered RC very true! I pulled out the camera a couple times during the build but just didn’t have a video in me till the end.
I put a similar light rack on mine in the same spot but mine is 4 lights, I think the 5 rack you have looks better. I've beaten the hell out of my light bar from rolling though lol.
Nice build man. Just got a wraith and looking to do some upgrades.
RC Propaganda its a great platform with lots of options! You get a 1.9 or 2.2 wraith?
@@krlaturn 1.9. Went out with it and it seems legit. Need a few mods and it will be amazing. Metal links are first on the list.
This thing is fucking badass. Mine is stock.
Man, you just made me order one haha! Beautiful job! Hope you don't mind but I WILL be stealing some of your ideas!
Awesome my friend! Thanks for the kind words! Copy all you want 👍🏻
Fantastic looking rig. Do you have a link or name who created the cage mod bars
Kind regards

You didn't add the rear sway bar to help with torque twist???

Hey did u spray the outside of the body?
Jeffrey Lashley yes 👍🏻
@@krlaturn is there anything a special i need to do prep and paint it? I get mine this coming weds. N def want to make it my own as far as looks
Jeffrey Lashley I removed the decals, cleaned with alcohol, and used lexan paint. Then used rustoleum 2x flat clear as a last coat.
@@krlaturn awesome thanks man
