Building from ground up
Hi all,
I've been away from the RC scene for a few years. I've decided I want to build a REVO from the ground up. Can you guys/gals point me in the right direction as far as venders go? I used to order from 2coolrc.com but it looks like they have closed their doors. I plan on building a 3.3 chassis.
Thanks guys

I will post pics as I go. I am thinking about using spray on bed liner for my chassis. I love the textured look it has when it's done.

Whats wrong with ebay? You could probably sit down with a list and find everything you want or need to piece one together... Probably cheaper too... Just my 2 cents worth...

I put one together from ebay and saved a ton, even with upgrades. Just try to find a store that has most of the stuff you want if not everything, that way you save big time on shipping. "hopmeup" has alot of stuff for upgrades. good luck

I built my custom T- Maxx from the ground up piece by piece off of e-bay. I was able to build it for about $450, and built it how I wanted it. I would post a picture here for you if I knew how, but feel free to go to my profile in my gallery

RE: Building from ground up
I also Built one tmaxx form the ground up and was able to find everything I needed on ebay. Don't forget to be careful who you buy from. Check their score and only buy from those you are comfortable with.
I still have the tmaxx I built and I love it. It's powered by a O.S. .21RG engine.
Ebay all the way!! Post picks too when u can!!
View mine in my gallery. I garrentee you'll like them!

I've already seen your thread. That's one sick looking truck.

I plan on using ebay for alot of the parts but I was looking for other venders as well. I like to see what's out there instead of having to search through everything.
