I think the arm mounts will be fine for racing. Make sure you replace the re-re arm mount screws with original ones or others otherwise your setting yourself up for broken screws in the mounts.

Yeah the stock green hardware on the rere are especially delicate. Team KNK makes a nice stainless steel screw set for about $20 that is very nice for runners

Aluminum is very heavy compared to plastic, and also doesn't bend in a crash. Therefore the car will be heavy, and parts will break. Trust me, I've tried it. I have RPM arms and kept breaking inner hinge blocks, so I went to aluminum, and now it just shears bolts off. You have to leave a few flexib...

I hear ya guys, this is how my Dhawk ended up. It's hard to stop!

Yeah I have KNK screws on all my builds...speaking of that I need to pick up a couple more sets

I actually ordered the 5700kv and canceled it and went with the 4600kv. I remember back in the day I nuked the diff in my JRX2 with a low turn modified. Ended up pleading with the family to take me to the hobby store while on vacation in order to buy a steel replacement. Turns out my sister's husban...

Not too much done tonight... Got the arms/bulkheads taken care of. The reason for the delay?
I was too busy playing around with this:

Sill working on my Dhawk special. But slow and steady lol. http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b352/durb69/FB_IMG_1460382897326_zps0whzugs4.jpg http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b352/durb69/IMAG1386_zpse9ivt5ad.jpg http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b352/durb69/IMAG1384_zpsu98wcmhh.jpg http://i23.photo...

Super clean stuff right there. Thanks for sharing!

That's turning out really nice Jeff. I know all this aluminum is just bling but it sure looks pretty.

I stumbled upon those dhawk parts today. Maybe after I get a few more builds.

All, I starting a 'black'n'Gold' build based on a carbon chassis, vintage stealth RC10 and Dhawk gold aluminium kit. My plan is to keep everything black and gold as much as practically possible. I have the following parts waiting to be fitted: - Dhawk Gold aluminium stealth transmission case - Team ...

I know this doesn't really help but sometime way back when I picked up a pair of gold CV's. I guess the only plus to this post is there are some out there I just don't know where or who made them. I see that they look towards the silver side in the pic but that's due to the flash. They are a nice go...

Kyosho made the gold uni's for the rc10.

Following on from my other 'Graphite Custom' thread, I have decided to build up another pair of cars from my spares stash. One will be a gold pan A-stamp chassis and the other will be a Graphite. As a base for the latter I have managed to find a very tidy Graphite chassis as can be seen here. graphi...
