I have this grand idea as some have had before to make weighted dummy cells and solder those into display packs to avoid this very issue. I had a display pack of vintage cells in one of my buggies and pulled it out as soon as some of the terminals started getting fuzzy. I wasn't going to wait and se...

Maybe there is a market there for someone to exploit. Manufacture tiny metal can sized like a NiCad but have the "positive terminal" be a plug. Use the plug to add BBs or lead or whatever to weight it properly. People could print or buy the decals they want for their application. I've had...

I started installing vintage electronics in my JRX-Pro and had to pause because I’m not sure that I like it.. The bare chassis looks so awesome by itself! Anyone else have this dilemma? Yes. Something about complete roller with just a servo is appealing. Maybe because you can admire all of the kit ...

Hmmm. Maybe the wing treatment could make the blue in the wheel decals look more at home. I think the wheel decals are pretty "sick", but it's hard to make the final desicion without the wing. Any desicion you make will be the correct one as evidenced in all of your builds.

The machined taper in the motor plate may just be a super attention to details kind of thing. Something about the motor plate, and probably across manufacturers on platforms of this era/style, is the alignment/fitment to the chassis once it's lashed up to the transmission. Especially those two rear ...

I'm showing 3.5mm for the chassis plate thickness.

You might be a little long on the front of the plate / or back a little on the arm mount/tower assembly? Notice the plate front lip in relation to the arm mount(s) And nice dogbones!

Yeah I'm no expert with brushless stuff and lipos. BUT I'd keep it at a nice 2S voltage. Be a shame to roast all the nice MIP stuff on 3S.

Congratulations kedal!

Russ Winn! Welcome back! Life man, just keeps happenin'! Brad!!! All that green!! I think it's totally bitchin'! Got the super sliders and Tecnacrafts, everything looks sweet! Is there a build thread for that bad mamajamma that I missed? OK, I'm all tapped out on exclamation points for the day.

Dang Steve! Looking good as always. Way better than a gun room shrinkage.

Not to pollute this thread, but I think there is a little bit of hair splitting here. However, I see where everyone is coming from. But it appears that Mr. Reedy/Associated took particular care to advertise and label his modified (by their standards) motors as "MODIFIED" while what most pe...

Woah! That thing looks trick! Sweet.

IRONMAN OFF ROAD!!!
That was THE game to get on at the pizza joint when I was a kid. There was a line!
