Neat electrics install!

How well does it run?

From a fellow Procat admirer, those are s-w-eeeeet

Nice alloy goodies, especially the front brackets and gearbox

Do you still keep a runner?

I just bought some vintage Schumacher parts off Alun at Tay Models.

They have a up to date list of all the old stock e.g Bosscat, Cat 2000 etc.

In the Procat the front currently has No.3 pistons and 37.5 Losi oil. If I wanted similar static damping and less pack i.e. less resistance at speed, could I put in No.4 pistons and 40wt oil? Those plastic plastic mounts just don't transfer the force as effectively as carbon fibre and alloy so when ...

Thank you very much. Yes, I like that solution. K&S do some thin walled brass tubing 2.5mm O.D. wall thickness 0.225 and 2.05mm I.D. which is ideal. I would need just need to drill out the wishbone a bit first. There is also some 3/32" O.D. tube which seems more abundant but it the inner di...

Does anyone have any ideas how to repair this vintage wishbone? The previous owner used a nail for a hinge pin which increased the hole diameter.

I'm swapping to saddle packs for my Kyosho Lazer FS so I drew some new trays and straps for the Procat. They can be used wit the existing posts so hopefully it won't cost too much.
