Bummer they didn't include the Bandit door decal

I hate cutting wheel wells, probably because I suck at them. I found these drift wheels for my bandit build. At the time DS wheels were crazy expensive and these were pretty cheap so what the heck. 17233288821560.jpg Those are as close as I've seen to the real thing. Are those still obtainable on e...

I need to get me one of those Trans Am bodies that looks so good, did you go short wheelbase I had to with the protoform 71 Camaro to get a good fit in the wheel wells.

This just blew me away , it's half of a Meteor gearbox printed in glass fibre nylon with PC used as the support interface , the inside your looking at is the supported surface , its shiny , my old ender would look like this on the top lol

The new DS Classic doesn't mention having an adjustable wheelbase, anywhere. The only place I can see where the wheelbase could be...

The only place I can see where the wheelbase could be lengthened, would be the toe-blocks for the rear arms, there is another set of holes The inner suspension mounts are one adjustment and the spacer at the hub carrier also allows adjustment. The rear wheel wells were not marked on a lot of on roa...

Just for promotional shots, the on-screen car didn't have it.

They filmed parts of the in movie in Ojai, the town I grew up in. I was only 6 when they were filming but I remember it being a pretty big deal

Here are a couple of shots coming out of the old Rolands Shell station and the bottom on is passing the long since gone O-Hi Frosty

Ran into a problem, was missing (2) ball studs from Bag A, tore the place apart looking for them. Hope that saves someone else some wasted time and grief. Wish I had read this first, and this one line will convince me to read your whole build before continuing. I was also missing the two ball studs...

As I get closer to running this DS, I'm not really comfortable gluing and peeling out on these tires that are irreplaceable, that's one of the very things that makes me not run some of my vintage RC's. I'm starting to think about foam instead, won't look as good, but I don't want to ruin the DS whe...

It's a Mavic 3 with a Decal Girl Old Glory wrap. The shot was taken by another drone while I was chasing Ultra4 cars out at King of the Hammers. Very nice! I have the Air3, hoping to get some drone RC videos here soon. I look forward to seeing what you come up with! We will have to start drone/rc c...

You are actually from there? I laughed when I first saw "Ojai" in your info. I thought it was quite the clever reference to the 6 Million Dollar Man tv show.

If you intend to use a brushed motor, it will fit the DS without issue. If you intend to use a brushless motor, you may need to mod the motor mount. Brushelss on the left, brushed on the right. https://i.imgur.com/hVnPLh2.jpg I had to file the motor mount a bit to get the 3650 brushless motor to fi...

Thought occurred to me. Since the mesh part of the wheel is a separate disk that's non-structural we can easily change up these disks with custom 3d printed ones to get different looks.
