LS motors have become the power plant of choice for many custom builds of all kinds, and its cool to see that kind of authenticity show up in Joshua’s Axial Capra. Tucked in back and encased in the cage is a hyper-detailed 3D-printed LS3 from Benchmark RC that includes a working serpentine belt, pullies and fan. The actual power system consists of a TorqueMaster 540 30T motor and TorqueMaster BR Mini controller—both from Holmes Hobbies—and fed by an Ovzonics 2200mAh 2S Lipo pack. To grip the rocks the Capra runs either Pro-Line Racing Super Swampers or Hyrax tires, mounted on Injora 1.9 bead-lock wheels with IE_RC bead-lock rings.
