Also note that some of the parts for the Sports truck are compatible with the Type-R, but not all (some have very different shapes). Type-R vs. Sports truck: Differences: - The whole gearbox is different, including the motor plate, rear bumper, hinge pins and the mounting holes where it attaches to ...

This will be a report of a build that I started long ago, took pictures of, and wrote a report about, but didn't post on here. What I started with is this Mantis GP wreck, bought two years ago: k4tjp.jpg Of this wreck I found I could reuse everything but the GP exclusive parts (the alloy chassis was...

You know that it can be configured to use not one but two Mega Motors?

IIRC, you just need an additional motor mount.

:lol: So you'll be able to drive a RC car in more way than one... :mrgreen: Here in the Netherlands we have a soft lockdown, and I fully expect the shit to hit the fan in the coming weeks because mostly young dumbasses apparently still don't get that this disease is dangerous and they too can end up...

Ouch. I hope you flushed your hands well after that, because the color of that water doesn't look too healthy...

But you're doing some really nice work on this car!

now i don't want to be dismissive but for those prices there are a lot of high end cars out there , is there something i don't know about the Striker ? i really do want to know i'm not just saying its not worth the money i'm just not seeing it ? The front suspension breaks really easily without usi...

Is that another pedestrian laying on the pavement? Damn, I keep hitting them...

Of interest

You need to take some stack out of area between the knuckle and ball end. Drop the links and make them almost parallel to the arms. That would be right if the steering links were roughly the same length as the upper links and if he were fighting toe out. But he is figthing toe in: because his steer...

Later this week I will be continuing my original build, but I just wanted to show another parts car I bought some time ago: IMG_2381.jpg This is an Impress with the suspension kit front end installed, plus almost all other options (alloy diff, carbon chassis, alloy shock, alloy t-bar mount, carbon r...

Got more Glanzer delivered today in the afternoon while I was in meetings (why it is always happening this way?). Decided to launch another bath (full bath this time) for the two bodies and the driver figure.  Put the filtered glanzer and additional ones in the bin. While doing this, I was thinking...

By the way @ EvolutionRevolution How did your Ultima ST Evo project went? Updates stopped suddenly. That wast the project that greatly inspired me towards of making free stuff for Ultima ST:s. All my projects will end up getting restarted at one point or another. The updates stopped suddenly becaus...

The Cross set comes with three spring rates, soft, medium, and hard, with the medium set being as hard as the hard set from Kyosho. After taking the front arms apart and then bolting the front end back together, I went to have a look at the friction damper. Sorry, I forgot to take a picture of the a...

Also be sure to store bottles of oil in an upright position, preferably in a box where bumping into the box does not make one of the bottles fall over, pop open, and spew its gunk all over your other bottles and tubes of shock oil, diff grease etc. Guess who discovered his bottle of bearing oil did ...

Thanks. The latest controversy that led to the stewards taking a ridiculous amount of time to penalize some drivers was actually the reason I though I'd do something F-1 related not related to the current season :lol: So, after getting some new superglue I fixed up the carbon axle, flipped it 180 de...
