Popular Post billyb_imp Posted August 30, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted August 30, 2021 A bit more done today on the CC-01 but come to a halt as the Yeah steering links appear to foul on the chassis, spent to long going over & over what I’ve done wrong, so will give it a rest and may be all will become clear next time I look at it. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post chewbacca Posted August 31, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted August 31, 2021 Saturday I gave my FTX Tracer Truggy it's first run, what a cracking lil thing. Well worth the full price and definately worth the 4 quid I spent on raffle tickets lol. Also gave the BSD Beach Rocket a controlled blast (too many people for consistant full throttle runs). It's now had two 3s packs through it with no breakage so I'm happy. Sunday I stripped and cleaned the gearbox in the Mauler and popped a set of metal gears in ready for the SST. Also removed the front propshaft which will be replaced by an Axial Wildboar to match the rear. Sunday evening gave me my first outdoor heli experience with the WL Toys V911S that a mate gave me. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Madmoz7610 Posted August 31, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted August 31, 2021 Took the carnage out for a blast that lasted all of 2 mins because I lost the front steering arm lol, so fitted some of my blue Ali ones iv had for ages lol 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Ag100 Posted September 1, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted September 1, 2021 I had previously fitted a couple of switches between the RX and the lights/fans so I could turn them on and off from the TX, but since fitting the new Castle esc I had turned up the internal BEC to 7.5v, this was too much for the switches and a blew three before I realised. So have now fitted a little 5v BEC between the RX and the switch to bring the voltage down. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post tanveer Posted September 1, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted September 1, 2021 Gave the e revo a good bash this morning, shock rod end popped off after a huge cartwheel though, very impressed at the way this truck goes over some seriously rough terrain... 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Alex97 Posted September 1, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted September 1, 2021 The 5mm carbon fibre rod arrived this morning, I cut them down to roughly the right size however I need to order a M4 tap to thread the hole to keep the wheels in place. I might add another 20mm to the overall length as it looks a little short. What do you think? 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Redback Posted September 1, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted September 1, 2021 (edited) Went for a crawl with the club, used the wrong tires / wheels for funzie. Did everything the others did on road tires. SCT wheels and tires work pretty good on crawlers, hard as an old boot but somehow works.

Looks good and I’m curious to see this progress; I think this should probably have its own build thread we can follow.

Popular Post supersavage Posted September 2, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted September 2, 2021 As they've just harvested the fields and broken the soil up I took the Maxx for a bash on them before they're littered with dog mines. Was an absolute blast, I wish I had gotten a video but I was having too much fun. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Lone-wolf Posted September 2, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted September 2, 2021 been re building shcks for 2 trucks, the Hobao DC1 has been and ongoing thing with shocks but back on the stock ones and a lot better also as @tomr pointed out in one of my video`s the FS scx10 looked very bouncy, he asked if i was running no oil in shocks, turns out the rubbish after market ones i fitted a while back had dumped all the oil, so i dumped the shocks and rebuilt the original ones and refitted them. final job was to put the gold beadlocks back on the FS with the super swampers ready for Scale nationals, and fit the white beadlocks to the Carisma scale F-150 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrCake Posted September 3, 2021 Share Posted September 3, 2021 Set the alarm for early, drove to local woodlands, climbed steep hill which always knackers me out.

Decided to head out to the same spot after work rather than put the lipo on a discharge cycle! Got to get these sessions in before the clocks change and it is basically dark/cold/wet most of the time, 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
