Axial Yeti "Not so RTR" Running Footage - Full Length

LIKES = MORE RUNNING VIDEOS!!!
The Axial Yeti is such a versatile desert buggy. Everything from crawling to all out speed, the combined solid rear axle and independant front suspension soaks up everything. I have equiped my "RTR" in a differnet fashion merging some of the top electronics and machining companies with some independant fabricators to make the ultimate Axial Yeti. Here's some running footage of my Yeti "Not so RTR". I hope you enjoy my improved camera work (Thanks Derek!) and some new video editing skills. Although not a long video...(This one's only 3:16) there's some really good quality shots including the "God light" on the hill decent!
Axial Racing, Tekin Electronics,Hitec RCD, Carter Fab Machine
Crawler Innovations, Hot Racing, MIP, Pro-Line Racing and Vanquish Products were used in the build
Want to see the build on this fully modified Yeti?
Here's my Axial Yeti "Not so RTR" Build Complete video. This build has been a great project and it's quickly winding down with just some lights to wire up and adding some scale accessories. Although the KIT has been released (and I am working on building that!) the RTR was the debut of the Yeti series from Axial. What a great platform to modify and make your own!

Here's some info on the Axial Yeti and where I got mine:
The Yeti™ is a skillfully engineered rock racing vehicle with a solid rear axle and independent front suspension. It's built to withstand the punishment of rock racing at a high level of performance. Its distinct aesthetic and technical elements were inspired by full-size desert trucks and various off road vehicles. The Yeti™ is a no-compromise mix of speed and handling unlike any other R/C vehicle. Its strategically engineered design supplies bashing stamina while delivering a high level of technical rock racing abilities without compromise in either category. It's powered by a 3150KV 4-pole brushless motor which provides the perfect amount of torque and speed for this rock racing monster. The long can design provides a massive amount of power, especially when powered by 3S. In the suspension department, the Yeti™ is equipped with an Independent Front Suspension [IFS] system to help maintain high speed stability when running through a diverse range of terrain. Precision machined aluminum shocks are standard equipment and deliver smooth suspension movement for consistent handling.
It's as serious as you want it to be, with true fun factor characteristics that make it a blast to drive. The Yeti™, dirt's new friend.
ROCK RACING
Rock Racing is the next up and coming form of R/C off road racing. Enthusiasts are taking it upon themselves to go back to the dirt with tracks composed of loose surfaces and big rocks. It's distinct aesthetic and technical elements were inspired by full-size desert trucks and various off road vehicles, especially rock racers, which are built for high speed performance through flat desert sections, and durability when tackling extreme off road terrain.
SKILLFULLY ENGINEERED
The Yeti™ is a skillfully engineered rock racing vehicle with a solid rear axle and an independent front suspension that supplies unforgiving bashing stamina while delivering a high level of technical rock racing abilities without compromising in either category. INDEPENDENT FRONT SUSPENSION
The Yeti™ is equipped with an Independent Front Suspension [IFS] system to help maintain high speed stability when running through a diverse range of terrain. Every rock the Yeti™ will encounter is individual. They come in random sizes and are scattered throughout the course, making the terrain varied from one side of the vehicle to the other. The IFS system allows you to better control the intended direction of travel at high speeds when one side is adjusting to overcome road obstructions. This stability that the IFS front end provides is paramount when rock racing
