Got My FG Monster Truck

[KauseKaos]

Well I won a used FG MT5 rtr on ebay. It came with a Spektrum DX3 and SR3000 that i threw on ebay as well as front cable brakes so i threw my xtra set on there as well. It has a chrome kit on the motor which is a 26 if Im not mistaken, CNC Wheelie bar and a DDM pipe. I picked up Lauterbacher alloy adjustable shocks from pete that i threw on as well a Aluminun Servo tray. I also got a 2 speed and aluminum gear holder to put on. DDM had the outwear covers a the killer bee for the DOD this past week so I got those. The orginal plan was a 4x4 converison right off the back but funds fell short for that so I'll be looking for the Large and Small alloy engine mounts. All i need now is a xtra Futaba R603FS receiver so i wont have to keep swappin mine out my marder.

Well here are the pics for now.








I cut the bed out of the body and popped wholes on the side of the bed. Do so I was able to drop it 2" in the rear so it looks like it fits more.

Nice truck. Interesting body!
When you said 'won' I was jealous, until I saw the famous word 'Ebay' !!
Once set up it should fly!
