RevoMikey Posted June 3, 2014 Share Posted June 3, 2014 Rebuilt my truggy flux after the weekends breakages. I have to credit modelsport for their speedy service. It couldn't have been quicker. Best rc shop ever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ghazghul Posted June 3, 2014 Share Posted June 3, 2014 Loaded up 2dDesign (CAD app) and sorted an electronics tray / body panel for tuber. Will cut the ally tomorrow. Fitted a narrowed Scout wheels too, Much more steering lock possible.. time for a new steering link at front as it's hitting the diff. before the tire hits the lower links.

Tug Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 Stripped the dud cell from an 8000mah, 4s pack. Rebuilt it and put it on for a test charge. Not strictly a model, but close enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh How Original Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 Wondered why the 8ight was barely moving, discovered what I thought was barely any drive from the centre diff, so stripped it, everything is fine, refilled with 20k oil, discovered still barely no drive, so did the rear as well, it started to improve, then discovered no drive at all to the front... Did all that work and all it was was the outdrive grub screw had come loose. Oh well, least I know they're all rebuilt now which is something I needed to get around to doing.

DT-02 was my first kit. I loved it, it's now in retirement but I'm planning a new build with a new DT-02. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tug Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 Badger bashing earlier, 7s, muchos fun. I wanted to test the repaired 4s, all seems OK in its new 3s configuration. Just started charging a 5s for the Scorpion, it's been too long! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noj Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 Storage charged two lipos I was intending to use today, but didn't Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oh How Original Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 Took the 8ight for it's first bash, overall a success. Motor and ESC temps where good after a hard run as where the LiPos and connectors. Buggy is as strong as the hype so far, I definitely didn't go easy on it! Only thing broken was the wing, which I expected with the way I was treating it. Also... Paid for the next one.

.AJ. Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 (edited) Fitted new servo to the wraith Also fitted a 4 channel receiver that I've just waterproofed, it has telemetry and it's saying my BEC is only kicking out 5.1v, so I've got to investigate that, my mate is popping over tomorrow with his castle link so we can crank it up to 7v+ to get more punch out of the new servo Edited June 5, 2014 by .AJ.

'83Junglizt Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 I didn't need to do any fixing today, (for a change!) I took my phoenix STII to a bit of gravel near my house, brushless power is awesome and traction is massively over-rated! I need a 3s lipo tho, i think it'll do wheelies if I gear it properly...

RCMonkee Posted June 6, 2014 Share Posted June 6, 2014 Everything is broke at the moment. The 2wd Slash i smashed to bits on its last outing, the other is getting fixed up to sell. The 4x4 has no radio in it, The Hyper ST has a threaded steering knuckle, Losi 8 needs a new spur and the front diff is clicking. The 8T needs a new ESC. The Blitz needs new front shocks. All easy fixes - So flew the Quad lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noj Posted June 6, 2014 Share Posted June 6, 2014 More experimenting with blitzer wheels on the HB, using the 13t can...19t pinny still too high, 17 should be fine, however, the drop in speed and power won't be worth it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
