Im hoping it will still run...hasnt been started since before the birth of my son (now 15 mths old)!
I gave it a bit of a spruce up while it was in pieces since my last outing when I crashed it bad...

Oh the last dirty pic is a few years ago before I got carried away with modding it.
What wing mount did you use?

Thanks

Looks like he used a DSLR with high speed shutter and then PP in photoshop for the high contrast and burned the pic a little. Great shots!

That's my other hobby. Photographer and use Photoshop heavily.

^ Hehe nice rendition. I actually have no clue about photography but thats my bro's hobby. He uses a Nikon D90 with a pile of different lenses and such- hes been messing with photoshop and lightroom for a few months and the pics came out great. I give him good practice to get those sexy action shots . Thanks guys.

call it a dumb question, but, why aluminum arms? with all the aluminum isn't that just asking to break the bulks or snap/bend the hinge pins?

I stare at it waiting for the mailman to bring the Z680 wheel nuts I need (because the ebay supplier sent it via really really slow, probably pony express, mail).

ok, I understand that they've got a good replacement policy but, why use parts that you keep damaging, just use something that doesn't break or bend very often? I've jumped a semi with my savvy and landed it terribly, and the only parts I break are the uprights and the hubs....still running stock Savage 25 shocks and arms, TVP's I can understand bumping up to something more solid (I went to the XL chassis and center shafts)...but the parts that're designed to have some flex to help absorb impact from jumps should probably stay that way unless you're always using it on road and never bashing with it.....
