new guy here
Hello fellow rc people the names Hollow and I'm new here. So I figure its only right to let everyone know what I'm working with. Right now I am currently building a t maxx 4907 chassis. Weird story on how this all came into play. I bought a old t maxx pro .15 off a friend for 50 bucks and the thing was horrible. Had a blown motor with no backing plate missing 3 springs and a few misc brokken pieces that I just tossed. I have a nitro sport pro .15 that I stole a few parts from and I got the maxx running kind of. I then realized that it was a total beef cake and started to upgrade things. First upgrade I got was 3.3 arms towers and the belcrank steering. Once all that was put on the old frame I realixed a few things. The steering was interfering with the reverse servo and my gas tank was busted. So I started a new build. I figured might as well so I bought a 4907 chassis and swaped my old skool 4910 parts over. I am currently at a stand still because of funds but ill post pics of my current progress.

It wasn't too bad mine was before the 3.3 lol. About 8 or 9 years ago. It's all fun just takes time . It was a little here little there type project. Racers edge chassis, proline wide arms and shock towers, forward only conversion,sirio 18,etc etc. My son in law is running it now with a 3.3 in it.

U got a nice rig there UEmaxx I'm jealous lol. I can't wait to be able to get it complete so I can start on another project. I'm thinking of turnin my weak nitro sport into a sandslinging beast.
