    I almost didn't run it all just cause I didn't want to let go of that fresh new car look. :D

    Changed up the look a bit, still trying to perfect that print for the body, this is not the final rendition, just one that turned out ok. New material, CF infused PETG. Weighs in at 21.4g without the magnets.

    Either you guys want to buy my Dementor V2 kit?

    It'll consist of the Dementor kit as a whole which includes a front tray, rear tray, skid, roof, and CF rails. But, I'll also include the front and rear Dementor links as they're meant to work perfect for this chassis (145mm WB), as well as the brand new Injora 39mm shocks I posted the rig with.

    $70 rig, $43 links, $21 shocks, and I'll even toss in that new Mini Komodo in just because (if purchased new before tax/shipping).

    $110 shipped

    I think I'll just want to do a single build and it'll be the Valkyrie kit.

    Tempting....After building the UTB, my focus went back to the cheat code as it does better overall, and I get to print bodies for it. Building another comp rig would mean that one or the other would eventually sit.
    There, I talked some sense into myself. :rofl:

    lol, I've looked at it a few times, I'm sure it would kick ass in the rocks. I might attempt to make my own frame/chassis and cannibalize the UTB for parts/testing purposes.

    I wouldn't mind having another such rig, but I ain't got space for a bunch of rigs.

    Could always break down the Mazz Designs build but that one's now used whereas this one's still new.
