Big Jconcepts day

Wing wire!

Ti turnbuckles.

Standard hex drivers

It was about a 2 month wait, but they look to be worth it. Now I just need to decide which buggy they will go on.

More wheels!

I have a project that needs a set of 5 slot mini mag wheels. Jimmy at Dhawk was willing to work with me on making a custom set. They turned out excellent!

Love those aluminum slots! I need more info about these..

Through eBay I tried several times to ask Pargu to see if he would make me a 5 slot version of his jelly bean wheels but he didn't respond to my inquiries. Even after buying 2 sets of wheels from him (Turbo Optima wheels still on the way) he didn't respond to my inquiries. I then asked Dhawk and he said he was willing to make me a custom set. I sent him a marked up picture, he showed me some renderings, I asked for some tweaks, got some more rendered images, we worked out the price, and he showed me the parts before shipping them. I'm very pleased how they turned out and it was a bonus that he also had rhe wheel spinners. I needed those too.

Continuing this theme, I received my second set of Pargu wheels today, and while I was 110% satisfied with the first set that I got (Assault/Tomahawk), I am about 90% happy with these. The finish on these will just need a bit of work to make them great, but for the price, aluminum pan car wheels from he/them are hard to beat. And TBH, I have been shocked by how quickly they arrived. I "bought" these on 11/19, and they arrived on 11/29....... from S Korea.


BUT, I am really excited about a potential aluminum wheel builder that will do custom / semi-custom builds, and am hoping Franken is opening up a door here!!!

I love these motors, especially the ones with the black cans.

Not too special, but man it took a while in transit.

New project parts

Special sale... buy a motor, get a 10L included. Just pay shipping, handling and processing fees.

Did the RC10L ever come packaged with a mechanical speed control, or did someone likely retrofit one?

A unicorn arrived last night



Came with a few Bodies inducing two XX-4 Bodies in the same livery. I immediately put one on my XX4. There's also almost enough parts to make another conversion kit, I may be selling those at some point.

@RogueIV , if this was the one on eBay, I nearly pulled the trigger on the lot myself. Reason (or rather Christmas bills) restrained me.
