Popular Post Oh How Original Posted March 3, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted March 3, 2021 Not technically today, but out running the speed car and witnessed the lowest flying helicopter I've ever seen. We get them quite a lot around here being so close to several army bases, but never seen one this low before, the GoPro is very wide angle so it appears further away but you can see from the shadow on the ground how low it really was. Awesome experience feeling the ground rumbling while a Puma goes just above your nut! 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Ag100 Posted March 4, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted March 4, 2021 Received a new Hobbywing 10BL120 Esc, so removed the old 10BL60 from my LC Racing EMB1, replaced the cables with some smaller gauge also shortened the servo lead, capacitor and ESC lead, then fitted it in, they are basically the same size five or take, so all good. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Ag100 Posted March 4, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted March 4, 2021 Just a shake down test of the newly fitted 120amp esc after calibrating and programming, also tried the new SpeedFlea GPS module out, which by a stroke of Luck, the display is visible through the side window. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You rate the speed flea then? Is the visible display live max speed?? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven’t used it in anger yet, just tried it out as I wanted to see where I could fit it. Yes display shows live max speed. Once the film finished I picked it up and it changed to show my speed as I was walking (1.2mph😀). It is very fragile though which is why I bought the box, but very light, and perfect for speed runs I think, @Jack Reacherhas one and tested in while driving his real car and said it was well calibrated. I will try and get it out for some speed runs, weather alowing.👍 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James.S Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 Took the Quantum out for a bash today 😁 Broke one of the rear turnbuckle rod ends 😩 I had a look on MS for HD rod ends to replace it but could only find the standard ones. Do they not make a hardened version of this part? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
everclear1984 Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 No pictures taken but I had a productive RC day today. I started by replacing the stripped gears and reassembling the transmission of the Stampede, then repaired the rounded wheel hexes by drilling through the hex into wheel and fitting grub screws to secure them. Next up was the DC1. It's a great car, but the shocks are just terrible. The rebound is way too slow, if they rebound at all. I took a knife to the spacer thing that limits oil flow which seems to have done the trick. Trail run tomorrow to test it out 🙂 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
