I still have time to send stuff back and change my mind on this build. VRD Carbon.

So based on one of my last posts, the consensus was buy the vrd carbon. So I did. These are the components that I chose based on availability here in China. And let me tell you, a lot is not available. It was really hard to get a vrd carbon.

So I went with a brass 50kg PowerHD servo (reefs not in china). I wanted the JC ruptures but I could only find the fakes here. So I went with PL Azteks But I went with the LP version for 2.2s with some D1rc 2 stage foams. Still torn about the tires since the HB rovers are available here also but I am worried about how wide they are. I got a set of nice looking 2.2 beadlocks from Rhino RC. A fusion pro motor. And some better portal cover weights. Jconcepts LCG truck body knock off since I cant get the real one. Looks the same.

Should be a decent performer leaving plenty of room to modify later if I get bored. What are your thoughts? I am not sure I even have a challenging enough place to play with this thing around me.
