The R/C Garage... [R/C Drivers Lounge]

Sometimes you can limit suspension travel and avoid the trim till it's all gone syndrome! Yes flex is good but you can have to much!

Got out and about last night. Finally drove this thing more than 5 minutes before something broke.

Just one bolt that holds the x over rod to the Pitman arm fell out :haha:

Forgot that I had a mini lil rock garden in the front yard.

I was about to pull the trigger on one of those G6 kits, then I remembered I haven't touched the scx10 I already have in over a month.

This is my tow truck to make it look cool at the crawler comps for the show and shine. I'll toss either the nissan or 1.9 wraith on the custom flatbed trailer and tow it up there.

I have a few more builds in the works.

That is one SICK!!!! Blazer When I get my Wraith built I either want to try and make it into some kind of tubed out blazer thing, or turn my old AX10 into a Tuber.
 
Decided to play tonight... posted on rcc.com

Ill post later from my pc and better pics when done.


Let me start by saying im horrible at build threads. I dont take pics and my mod skills ar horrid but it doesnt stop me from trying. I decided the micro t i got needed something fun.

Cut chassis and stretched it. I need to get glue and brace the frame.

What glue is good for plastic? I may remove screws if glue is strong enough...

I had this lid I got in sn ebay deal so figured a good use....

Lid is not mounted
Frame needs bracing
Need to support motor as i dont remember how it was bolted
Needs motor wires soldered
Needs a battery

So she will b a runner soon...
