Oh How Original Posted October 12, 2019 Share Posted October 12, 2019 Ran my new-to-me SCX10ii Deadbolt. Amazed how it performed for a stock rig, video to follow, nothing much but just a few clips. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisT Posted October 13, 2019 Share Posted October 13, 2019 Painted and stickered the driver for the Super Hotshot. Also cut and painted the body. Having that out the way, this will ensure a more continuous build with no hold ups and having to wait for paint to dry. Build will commence next weekend 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zoea Posted October 16, 2019 Share Posted October 16, 2019 (edited) Looks very tidy there .AJ. I am not looking forward to the task of cycling my 12 or so 2S Lipo batteries with various chargers, I think I must be up to 6 chargers with another one on the way* (planning to rig up another Xbox PSU for that one). They have been on storage volts for around 14 months now and sitting in a box under a bed so I assume I will loose a few to general lipo decay (second hand items mainly and I did loose a couple last year). Will take me a good few hours at another property address. Hobby calls for it though! *I paid $24.71 for this shipped, still little customs charge (ing) from China. It looks like another I have and it has a nice 10w or 20w discharge rate. Edited October 16, 2019 by Zoea Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my LG-H870 using Tapatalk I am running those on my SCX10ii, they have really amazed me, as someone who hates Traxxas, I will say they are one of the best tyres I have used. Not great for side hilling, but some nice soft foams and they hook to almost anything. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oh How Original Posted October 16, 2019 Share Posted October 16, 2019 Gave the new to me SCX10ii Deadbolt a run and grabbed a few pictures, tried something different with editing on a few and also tried an in-camera double exposure feature. There will be some footage to come possibly today, maybe tomorrow, which will be a bit different from me, including some commentary and a slightly different approach. Might also start a thread for this truck. Scully was having a brilliant time! Named for his facial features and the lead singer in one of my favourite bands Godsmack. Footage to come! My favourite edit of the day. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derka Posted October 16, 2019 Share Posted October 16, 2019 That's a nifty camera case and mount. Mind sharing what they are? Did think about using a selfie stick to get down low easily, but that still involves driving with one hand which ain't easy. Also have a Deadbolt II with some tweaks.

.AJ. Posted October 16, 2019 Share Posted October 16, 2019 Sorted the steering out on the 5ive Beeeeeeee.... When I fitted the ADI steering rack (about 3 months ago) I just added loads of sub trim to line it all up, so I’ve reset the dual links from the servos, getting rid of all the sub trim and then reset the endpoints 👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that ever comes up for sale, message me It's nothing special bud, just a GoPro Hero 4, with a couple of extension arms on the front, sticky pad on the front of my tx and the standard case the GoPro came with.

I wonder if you have a future on Instagram too. How did you achieve that red reflective finish on the horizontal metal bar? Did you use a specific paint is my honest question lol Edited October 18, 2019 by Zoea Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tamiyafanboy Posted October 18, 2019 Share Posted October 18, 2019 Currently waiting in project limbo so made a start on getting the willy sorted!
