Rod,

I was going to buy a second set of standard arms anyways, but if you don't want them, id be happy to buy them off you!

I blame that on the new phone. It couldn't have been the beer.

Couple of questions: What's the undertray used by Masami? What Reedy Mr. motor did he use? Does anyone know if Lunsford now sells a kit for this car including the different hinge pins in titanium?

Lundsford does have a turnbuckle kit for the car, not sue if they have a part number though. If you send them an email with the sizes, they do have complete kits packaged up.

The undertray used for the build is the Yokomo 91 Works with some creative trimming.

Not sure about the hinge pins.

Jake

He measured my parts and wrote the measurements down ...I watched him. Wether they have a part number or not tho...not sure.

Only issue ive come across is you missed the aerial mount hole in the chassis so now cant make an exact replica which is a shame. May be a good idwa to add the hole for all future orders.

A drill and a .110 drill bit will make super quick work of that hole you need for the mount, LOL.

Jake

Amazing things those drillbits haha!

I have been wondering if a 3d printed plug of the chassis (with servo notch) could be made for making undertrays

Ive visited the website and have a couple of dumb questions
Is there a way to order the complete set of parts? Why are there two different arm designs? Any tips for avoiding some of the order issues? Do you call them to order?

I apologize in advance if i missed this info somewhere.

Thanks Limestang

The Complete set is no longer sold, and there were too many issues anyway. Some wanted race arms or race steering etc. Plus there was no longer a cost difference. There are standard and race arms, race arms are stronger but do not look as original. Easiest way is to order online.

has anyone thought of using the klein arms instead of the 3d printed ones for a runner?

Would they fit on the car? I'm really scared of breaking the 3d printed stuff.

I read earlier that there were molded nylon arms in the pipeline. Is this still happening?

Cheers

The standard 3d parts are actually pretty tough. Just as strong as any molded part AE, Losi, etc. are producing. Keep a spare set just in case, because your hobby shop isn't going to have spares.

The molded arms were abandoned but Jake has the molds. He has made some machined arms though. Those would be tough.
