You and me both

Big power and questionable suspension, this is going to be a sight to see and seriously wild ride when it is done! It's probably going to need an exocage to keep that body intact! lol

And my poor bootleg bruiser will likely never see dirt while I own it...

Today, I started something... For the small story, I had a Kyosho 1/12 back in the eighties, it was 4WD, there was a chain, and a one way at the front, and a prototype body... I did not have a proper place to run it at that time, so it was sold almost once build, and I did not really run it. When I ...

New tires for the purdy Assault rear wheels. I was hoping they would fit a certain other wheel also, and they did; so score there.

There is things that disturbs me in the layout of this car: - the chain rubbing on the radio plate - the risk of the ESC power plug going to mess with the chain - in the case you use Lipo battery, the risk of having the balance connector messing either with the ground or the chain... I had to do som...

Sweet! My dark chocolate chip oat biscuits arrived!!!

Noooo! Someone ate them! At least I got something decent in exchange. Woohoo! My first Demon motor!

I started by the rear... Arm...

By try and error with low voltage At least I could get forward regulated runniing and backward full.
Still no function on the small switch. I assume that this component is defect. I assume it is a diode.

One question regarding the mechanical controller. Can someone explain the function? Ist seems to me that forward can be regulated, but reverse is seems only full and between 0 and full the motor gets short cut, ist that kind of break? Especially the large switch and why the drive battery is directl...

Still working on the front train... King Pins are very easy to model... https://i.imgur.com/9r30voz.jpg Then comes the knuckles, and let's be clear, this is likely the most complex car to model on this car The part holding the pivot ball is angled, but while the angle is easy to define (same as the ...
