Axial Bumper Attempt

Quote

Post by LTO_Dave » Sat Mar 15, 2014 10:47 pm

So my brother's stepkids needed a new bumper for their Honcho and I decided to try and make one from scratch. It ended up looking better than I expected, so I swapped the Rubicon bumper to the Honcho and put this on my brother's Rubi. It's my first attempt at using a mig welder and isn't perfect, but it gets the job done. It started out as a flat piece of steel that we use for powder samples and some scrap steel rod. A quick coat of gloss black powder and it was ready to go. I also added a Level 3 aluminum steering arm and swapped the 3-link front for a 4-link.

Made the mistake of bringing my 4yr old to the hobby shop today to pick up some parts for my RC10 Classic....

He saw one of these Axial Jeeps and now can't stop talking about this thing.

Are Axial products good or if I were to buy him an electric...

Your going to love that set-up you have. :wink: Man did that cost you some coin too! :shock: These SCX's are great performers out of the box. By chance did you put weights in the tires before gluing them? They will help immensely with keeping the...

The teeth on the servo horn went bad. I’m a newbie so I’m not sure do I need a new servo horn specific for this servo or will any 25 tooth horn work?

Last post

Thanks for the info! I replaced the worn servo horn with an alum one. Works great!

Also, I’m using this in an rc10 re-re

I had no idea Axial was planning to release this. I got an email from Horizon this morning regarding the launch, I watched the review videos (a ton of them seemed to hit youtube at the same time), then called my local hobby shop and pre-ordered a...

I finally got around to mounting those aluminum beadlock wheels I got from Injora.
I've cleaned the tires with a brush and knocked most of the mud off the rest of the truck.
Good to go again.
The truck definitely feels heavier now.

Since the 3d10 thread has been hijacked / side-railed a bit by this topic, I thought I'd start a separate topic on the options for finding a differential for the SCX10 / Injora transmission.

These 2 threads had their take at finding a solution:...

I was about to order the Tamiya gear diff assembly (54471) and it suddenly occurred to me that the diff gear and side plate assembly is almost certainly too wide to fit the Austar/Injora case. That case is very narrow and closely hugs the gears. :(...

I knew the axial bolt patter was familiar!

The trans cases even look alike-
anyone know if the axial parts will fit in the 1st gen Stealth case? I know they make all metal internals for the Axial AX trans. :idea:

OK-- thanks for putting that one to bed! :lol:

So I got these rims off ebay a while back. They were oxidized. I think they are Sees. Any way thought I would try my hand at anodizing. The results are better than what I thought they would be. I do have some issues however. In the second picture...

Or you can use a sophisticated fish tank bubble maker to help with that, :)

Keep at it, I have seen some very impressive at home anodizing.

Here are my two rattle can attempt for my RC10 ladies.
I think it is not to bad for a rattle can :oops:

Would be nice to get feedback from more experienced painter :)

I'm no good at painting as I don't have the patience but always find the blending/fading the trickiest bit with cans as the spray patterns are too large.

I assume you used a stencil for the detail in the splashes? I've used cardboard at various...
