You know your an addict when...............your on your third spare parts build. First a Typhon 6s, then a Notorious 6s and now a Granite BLX. This one happened only because a hobby store owner and I started talking about his weekly Instagram auctions. He takes in trades for people to be able to move up in the hobby, and has a weekly auction to try to recoup some money.
He and I have worked together in the past doing an auction where all proceeds went to charity. I bought a kit, another guy assembled it, and my painter friend did some magic too. So this time I told him I think I can build a full Granite with parts I have lying around. Well, I looked at my bins and I'm only short an outer drive shaft, a couple of axles, some turnbuckles, a rear hub and some spacers for the front steering. Pretty wild. Now I built this thing in about two hours, but I'll post one pic each day to show the progress. 90% of the parts are brand new (thanks to Jennys Rc). Esc and motor are lightly used.
