    So I got a question.

    The placement of the motor is facing the opposite way on the scx10 chassis. Is it ok to flip it backwards so it lines up with the axles.

    I assume if I make it sit the same way as it was in the wraith I would not have a problem.

    Thanks!!!!

    You should be able to flip the tranny no problem. Come on to rccrawler.com. They have a lot of great info and the boards are easy to navigate. :thumbsup:

    So did you get the Wraith kit, or are you building an scx10 with Wraith axles and drivelines?

    I had have the wraith rtr. It's got the Holmes 45t in it with the tekin fxr.

    I also have the dingo scx10.

    I pulled the axles, tranny and motor from the wraith and Triing to figure out a way to make it work on the scx10 chassis.

    Be careful, I got "The Jang" all bent out of shape several years ago by suggesting a Associated T4 picture thread. There was a link to a thread for it, but not a direct thread. Seems I got a tad ugly over it. Just A Nice Guy, my ass.

    I feel like he was very sheltered as a child . . . Then again, he's an R/C Traxxas fanboy and a software engineer... What do you expect?

    aren't enough people on that forum for it to be extremely helpful, anyway. He makes good videos and has good news updates, though.

    True, does it seem that everything on that site loads slow, to very slow? Or is it just my shit?
