Another vendetta....

Here is another vendetta which I have acquired through a trade. I also took in a couple of mamba setups with it. Only problem with that, is this is going to be brushed. I have upgraded the servo to a 1/10 metal gear servo, still need to get a motor for this. The rest I have on hand. I will be purchasing a phat bodies body for this sweet vendetta. I figured why not let the ol lady have her own mini, so brushed and a cute body is what she will get. Now onto the pictures.












Also an update of the modded chassis vendetta. A couple pics of how I went with the battery strap. Only need to clean and round the edges than its good enough.

Modified vendetta chassis installed.

Here is the vendetta all put back together after the modded chassis. The chassis now weights exactly 1 pound without the esc and the receiver and also the battery. That was the last time I weighed it. Have not yet weighted it with everything installed. I still have a couple things that I would like to do such as the battery strap, the one used is temporary. And than cover it I'm carbon fiber vinyl.

Vendetta stock chassis modification

Wanting to lighten the stock vendetta chassis, I came up with a way by cutting off some useless plastic that was mainly for look and to hold things in place. By removing some of the plastic I lost almost 1 oz of weight. It may not seem like to much, but in the racing world it means a lot. Lighter the better. So to make this one light 1/18th scale, this is how I did it.



3oz is what i began with.



One side cut.









Both sides cut, holes cut under motor and battery.



The final result after clean up. Still need a nice soap and water cleaning. May cover in carbon fiber vinyl.
