capri-boy Posted July 5, 2015 Share Posted July 5, 2015 Got cross with em - stripped, checked and rebuilt umpteen times trackside. On a plus found Hyper ST Pro cnc knuckles are a good swap for HPI Trophy cast alloy cheese - LHS had told Trophy owner there was no option of an upgrade so that was a plus. Also 'manufactured' this for the ST, credit to another owner here for the idea, Orange Rx fits snugly inside too: You'll have to forgive the yellow servo horn! It's all I had spare, ruddy Savox and there odd splines. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J.K Posted July 6, 2015 Share Posted July 6, 2015 Looking good, I painted one of my S-workz body's in a similar green and its very striking on track. Thanks Neil, I wasn't sure on the colour when the cans first arrived but was blown away when I tried it on the lean off cuts - especially backed with white she really pops in the sun! I shouldn't have trouble spotting it at the far end of the Herts track anyway! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex97 Posted July 6, 2015 Share Posted July 6, 2015 I rebuilt the buggy and lowered the COG by 0.5mm by placing washers under everything at the rear of the car. Might help in the faster corners but won't help on the bumpy back straight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
capri-boy Posted July 6, 2015 Share Posted July 6, 2015 Stripped the X1 CRT conversion back down, wasn't happy with sound from rear diff and felt a little tight. Diff internals fine, re-shimmed diff in case and it's better - still has it's own tone but rolls even more freely. Guess we'll see how it likes brushless soon...

RCMonkee Posted July 6, 2015 Share Posted July 6, 2015 Waiting until 5pm to leave work and then taking the flying machines out on the coast. Then if i can be bothered do the diffs in the micro and wire up a new video receiver for my Quanum goggles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adefirestorm Posted July 6, 2015 Share Posted July 6, 2015 Nice! I was at Herts on Sunday and the dirt track is awesome.

J.K Posted July 7, 2015 Share Posted July 7, 2015 After 7 years of service I decided to give my Firestorm a bit of a refurb: new top deck (I had buckled the original somehow!), new servos, new diff case & bearings, new brake disk & pads, engine bolts, exhaust gasket & air filter. Just like new again! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firestorm01 Posted July 7, 2015 Share Posted July 7, 2015 James1986 which servos did you put into yours?? Been thinking on upgrading mine ad I think the standard items are a bit pants!!! I've already ditched the standard Tx and Rx!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chewbacca Posted July 7, 2015 Share Posted July 7, 2015 Gave the Aqroshot its first bash in an open space. It's a hoot. Just quick enough on 2s with a 15t 550 can. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
