ghazghul Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 Made drag link on tuber but found the savox wp servo is just that bit wider than the maverick one I used for testing so now I need to make some servo mount blocks to fit. So close to it being drivable! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atom3624 Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 The never ending story of the Bigfoot #18 - one of several on this Forum - was that I pre-empted many of the 'available hop-ups'. RC 4WD have Punisher shafts for the TXT. I purchased these. I also installed the gears into the alloy gearbox halves ... problem is ... the Punisher shafts don't fit - too bulky ... or they DIDN'T fit. My mate Dremel's been helping me this afternoon. They fit now!! Al. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TMaxxDave Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 Today I found out my fuel tank on my TMaxx is leaking, so I remelted the plastic around the seam to reseal it, then I stuck some heavy duty sealant around it just to make sure, waiting 24hours before sticking some fuel back it. The nice guy in my local model shop sold me a new carb for my Maxx as mine was loose in the housing and it was sucking in air. Luckily for me, it was a brand new carb he'd got for one of his own trucks, so I got it cheap cheap. Bad news for today, I blew the Rx in my Tamiya TB-01 when bashing it outside my house with my new 4600nihm battery ( can't afford lipos, and not really interested in them), don't think it agreed with the rally splash through the little puddle.

optimus Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 (edited) Drove the hyper at the beach in Southampton. Underneath the new suspension arms are looking rather second hand lol. I put a scratch in one of my st shock towers too *sadface*. Motor got hot, esc warm, batteries warm. All generally seemed ok and nothing broke. Result.

K.nov Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 (edited) Met up with Tug, had a great bash and a chat! Tug left and all my rational senses went out the window, 6s'd my St and blazed my castle esc. 6s'd my hyper star and it ate its rear diff! So I went on ebay found a gem of a motor. 1520 castle 1600kv motor and I bought it, shame there wasn't a second one! now to find some pinions[emoji48] Edited August 31, 2014 by K.nov Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chewbacca Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 Not today cos I was driving home but I recently did this to my Carnage: New diffs courtesy of my Vandal, Trackstar 80a/3520kv wp combo, Hextronik 9kg 0.16 servo and the Proline bits you can see. I need to tweak the gearing a bit but my word, it's an ANIMAL!!!!!! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
