Gave the Holiday buggy a short run on the brushless set up, it's going to be a lot of fun as a basher, but the temptation is to see how fast I can make it go before it implodes.

Did a quick, and not very good, paint job on a spare shell for a build I'm working on.

Fitted my new Vitavon parts, these are really nicely made, drive shafts are a good bit chunkier and steering blocks and hub carriers have bigger bearings, so should be much stronger, also a little front brace too.

That was on 5s, it was mental! Lol. I intended to run 4s but the packs I bought were a poor fit and I already had these for the Savage.

Bling bling

Brought the old Stampede into the 21st century with a slipper clutch and some RPM goodies. Still lots more to fit, but the wife says I've filled my RC quota for today 😅

 

 

[No brains]

The chassis for my MAN truck I build the past week, and today I build the 3 speed gearbox.

 

Still a lot of work to do, I almost get to the point that I have to paint parts, but the weather here is almost every day rain, wind and cold, so then I have to wait for better weather.

Fitted the Vitavon hardened steel spur, replaced the plastic stock one.

These really seem like great quality parts.

Nice! Yeah they are nuts on 6s just to much power, cant plant it, but loads of fun! As it used to be nitro what do you think? Brushless Better?

I never ran it nitro, but I've had other nitro models. Brushless 💯 takes it for me, can't beat plug and play!
