So, what did you do RC today?

After putting the daughter on the school bus and the gym I spent some time with printing this out. Eventually after scaling it down to 90% and printing it seems to work great for gold pan ballcups. Here’s the link, I will post pics later. AC maintenance guy is on his way.

Finished up paint on the Cougar 2 works last night. Not perfect but i'm getting better.

Started to rebuilt the Optima Mid gear, much dust but luckily no broken parts..toothbrush and neverdull are bestfriends:

Painted a wing and trimmed the body from yesterday. Definitely looking like the 90s.

I was given this crappy nikko mk4 supra. Not that that's particularly interesting, but the wheelbase is exactly the same as a tamiya hornet.... maybe...

Dusted off an M03 mini I had bought years ago. Installed a custom clipless body system (neodymium magnets) I had laying around. Tidied up the wires and printed a broken upright in ABS. Replaced the awful M03 pogo shocks with less awful M05 pogo shocks I had laying around. Now playing with soft spring in the back and medium/hard springs in the front. Overall not too shabby. Car drives much better.

I have been printing stands and organizing my shelves.

With these stands I can get 6 cars per shelf.

Ran the goldpan. These MIP driveshafts that I loved so much? Broken in only 3 runs. Super disappointed honestly. Has anyone had success with MIP warranty or am I out of luck?

Wow! That is one from the new run of CVD's, right? I've never broken any of the original OG mip axles or bones, all my old ones have had super worn drive pins and cross pin holes before I ever needed to chuck them. Definitely email Eustace and send him the broken cvd pic.

Holy crap. That's a first

Yeah, it is. This seems to be a common failure point.i remember talking to some guys at a hobby shop who said this had happened with their mip shafts too. I emailed the warranty line at MIP. Is there somewhere else I should be emailing?

I've never broken one like that. Most broken CVD i've done is break out the hole for the pin on a aluminum cvd bone on my xxx4 g+ after a crash or warp the bones on my OG Mini T. Never broke an axle.

More like what i did the past day or so. Took my perfectly fine anniversary Optima Mid apart.

And installed the Exo Design LWB conversion
