Fuzzock Posted September 29, 2020 Share Posted September 29, 2020 The first parts of my new RC project have started to arrive. Going to be a long build this one as I gather parts and work out compatibilities... Ian... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mack1 Posted September 29, 2020 Share Posted September 29, 2020 Torn yet another exhaust coupler this weekend on my nitro buggy. So thought I would try something different. Started off by measuring gaps and angles on the car then welded the manifold directly onto the silencer. Don't know if it's going to work but we shall see. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Paul Busby Posted September 30, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted September 30, 2020 My first effort at painting an RC Shell.Pretty chuffed with myself. 3 colours and window tint, but there was 2 shades of orange and 3 shades of green.Think I know how to improve it in the future, but for a first crack, not too bad Reckon I can hide some of the rough spots with decals I guess. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James.S Posted September 30, 2020 Share Posted September 30, 2020 Looks like a proper job to me Paul 👍 & Certainly a unique colour scheme that you probably won't see anyone else rockin' 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Fat Freddy Posted October 1, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted October 1, 2020 (edited) Not to my actual model, but.... planning to re-paint my SCA-1E with a more authentic colour complete with some rust and weathering after finding out the coyote shell is an almost exact copy of a Toyopet (that’s Toyota pre-‘62) Stout. Have been putting it off as not sure I had the skills to do it justice. Painted a piece of off-cut lexan in my proposed new colour so I could practice some rust/weathering techniques. Quite pleased with the results of a first attempt. Far from perfect but with a bit more practice 😋👍 Edited January 11, 2023 by Fat Freddy Deleted pics to make space 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Acidsnow Posted October 1, 2020 Share Posted October 1, 2020 Used spares from the Mojave roller and modded an old kraton chassis to take the rear arms to come up with this. Need to find front brace, driveshaft and some kraton hubs to 'finish' it. Surprised to find the top brace is solid bar, chopped an re-tapped for the shorter chassis. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mack1 Posted October 1, 2020 Share Posted October 1, 2020 Done a little bit more to my exhaust today. I have welded on a piece of drilled and tapped bar so I can have a proper pressure take off instead of having to push the tube into a small hole at the top. Ran out of time polishing it so will finish off tomorrow. Not going all out with it as after so long it will be scratched up and oil stains everywhere. It's more practical than show. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should be some more "what have you done" over weekend as i am reinforcing the body shell on wifes outlaw and i have an interesting battery mod planned for my FS Ford enough waffle, here`s the pics...the grey looking non branded are what i had on the shiny black rock tyres are the new boots 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lone-wolf Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 And for the next mod, is this too much weight, twin 3000mah NI-MH one over front axle one over rear axle, i would use super velcro on the rear battery to hold it, got plenty of XT60 parallel plugs to give 6000mah at 7.2V 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
