Ready to bash across the Fulbourn Fen again. So much about alloy hubs & knuckles. Went for a bash and the steering knuckle bent. Plastic brakes, alloy bents... What solution is out there???? 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redback Posted March 14, 2021 Share Posted March 14, 2021 (edited) Plastic bends and bends back, this is why some of the strongest cars are plastic, avoid metal unless its on the drive train imo. Whats the solution?, mmm tough one get lots of cheap plastic spares? or stronger steering eg 1/8th scale buggy hubs, but that might be tricky to fit on 1/10. Titanum hubs or some custom milled ones that arnt made from pot alloys? Edited March 14, 2021 by Redback 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hell horn. Posted March 14, 2021 Share Posted March 14, 2021 Been attacking the chassis I got at the weekend. I'm lost as to what make it is. But I'm attempting to use my rc4wd mojave body on it. Almost impossible. Trying to work out how to mount the motor and gearbox in. Can't get it in with. A a servo in. B the bonnet shuts. C both. Can I give up now. Yay what fun.

Popular Post Hell horn. Posted March 14, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted March 14, 2021 Right. After God knows retrying to get it in right. Final fit gearbox in so bonnet closes right. Next job is body mounts and sort suspension put. Bit soft at the moment. Want to keep it on leaf springs. But got to see about sorting them out. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know nothing about these, and have a severe dislike for this genre of RC, however, those first two pics had me convinced this was a 1:1!

walkbythesea Posted March 14, 2021 Share Posted March 14, 2021 What did I do to my model today? ...I totally knackered the dual rates in my helicopter, not knowing that in the radio I have you don’t simply set each channel but have to set each DIRECTION individually, so mine is now all over the shop - but I still managed to make progress with my hover! 😂🤣 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks. Once I'm finished fingers crossed it will look very much like a real car. That's why I spent so long trying to get it on this chassis. As it is a proper scale set up one. This is a slow project build as its not cheap to go full scale. But it's worth it for the looks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
