toppers3933 Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 A load of soldering and painted the body on my et48.3. It’s so nearly done. And very orange. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drift Tuner Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 Stripped down more of my hyper 7 & removed the back end, didn't do as much as I'd hope but I'll carry on tomoz. Hopefully some of the new parts I've ordered should arrive too. Wonder if the vs shell will fit as I like the look of that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XV Pilot Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 Ordered parts for it. Speed Passion motor, Savox servo, TS and PS paints, RW steel pinion, Deans connector and a set of red alloy wheel nuts. Just need receiver and ESC now and I'll be ready to get the build underway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post rct Posted April 10, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted April 10, 2018 Got fed up waiting for stock to arrive at wheelspin models so I made my own...Made some new 'uprated' trailing arms and then made some rear suspension mounts.Then finished off the new roll cage with some powder coating and some panel work.Sent from my SM-G900F using Tapatalk 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post rct Posted April 10, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted April 10, 2018 Then I decided to completely remake my monster truggy thingy and this was the outcome.A full all metal 3 piece chassis and roll cage then added some new wheels to make it look just right.Of course the powder coating and some plastic panels, I have also added a gyro on the steering servo just to see how that works.Weight without battery is 3kg on the nose.Will post some running videos when I feel better and the weather improves.Sent from my SM-G900F using Tapatalk 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tanveer Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 Added a little detail to the UDR, painted the grey lego looking fuel tanks, and the jack on the back. Much better in red.Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

supersavage Posted April 11, 2018 Share Posted April 11, 2018 Glued some wheels and tyres which went surprisingly well with the help of a spoon. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're large scale tyres and they take a bit of persuasion to get them onto the wheels so used the spoon as a tyre lever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pistonhead Posted April 12, 2018 Share Posted April 12, 2018 Rebuilt the front diff with 10k oil, fitted a new centre shaft and spark plug, and reseated a front bead lock on one of the front tyres on the X2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghazghul Posted April 12, 2018 Share Posted April 12, 2018 Bought same 1/8th brass tube and some solder and started learning how to join it. Surprisingly first attempt seemed to bond so well I can't break it by hand. Next job.. make a bending jig and then Hilux cage here we come... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drift Tuner Posted April 13, 2018 Share Posted April 13, 2018 Stripped the centre diff on my hyper 7, as I came across 4 small springs i thought this don't look like it does in the picture ??? Took an hour or so to find out its the Losi smart diff that's fitted lol. Havnt touched the front or rear diffs yet so they maybe losi smart diffs too. Thinking 5k for the centre diff ?.

Jimplops Posted April 13, 2018 Share Posted April 13, 2018 Had the Outback a week so thought I'd give the axles and box the once over, all dry inside considering the puddles I've driven it through, but on grease on the diffs or gearbox so sorted that.

stonedef Posted April 14, 2018 Share Posted April 14, 2018 Rebuilt the shocks on my sons Bugsta, the oil was black and now they work a lot better. Charged some lipos ready for a bash tomorrow. Also testing out a cheap 4k camera I bought at christmas, and not yet used, so hopefully get some footage of tomorrows bashing. Also currently running down a Floureon lipo with a dodgy cell, ready for disposal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
