Shergar Posted April 20, 2021 Share Posted April 20, 2021 Guess where I bought the CVD’s from! They were quick on delivery too, have ordered, hopefully have them with me by the weekend. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

m4inbrain Posted April 21, 2021 Share Posted April 21, 2021 (edited) WideMaxx weeee. I like the looks, but certainly is "different" to what i usually prefer in terms of colour. Will say, after wrenching deep on the EXB, Dementor etc - this is just easier to work on, and more convenient. Should've cleaned the truck prior though, wife's gonna tear me a new one lol.

I’m giving it a strip down and bath too! The remaining end of my Yeah TT02 CVD’s came quickly from Cleveland RC - perfect fit 👍 Who knows why Yeah don’t sell them as a set! They do look a little spindly, will soon find out how tough they are... looks like I’ve gained a few degrees of steering travel too (which was the point!).

Hugoagogo Posted April 24, 2021 Share Posted April 24, 2021 I've got the same tyres on my TT02 rally build, Fastrax from Modelsport? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shergar Posted April 24, 2021 Share Posted April 24, 2021 Yeah racing via Cleveland RC - but I’d imagine the same component same factory - how have you got on with them? I mainly woodland bash this poor thing, I probably should get a buggy - but I love just love an actual car shell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hugoagogo Posted April 24, 2021 Share Posted April 24, 2021 Still in build, body on back order. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shergar Posted April 24, 2021 Share Posted April 24, 2021 Sorry @Hugoagogo read that correctly now (!), Fastrax tyres from Modelsport, softer than the Tamiya proper ones but pretty tough. Pale blue foam is ok but so soft as possibly negligible? (Next time I’d go for a medium Schumacher set inside). You need to glue them as they roll off the rims otherwise. I’m using a reinforced hard chassis and TT02 hard drift A parts as well. https://www.modelsport.co.uk/index.php?product_id=390752 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fuzzock Posted April 24, 2021 Share Posted April 24, 2021 Finished it (temporary shell)!: 😁 Broke it: 😆 It was just a shakedown run round the grass and road near me to see what would come loose/break and true to form something did! I think it is just the propshaft grub screw to the bevel gear but I want to look at the centre diff anyways, so will take that apart too.

BaldyMan Posted April 24, 2021 Share Posted April 24, 2021 Replaced the servo in my daughter's Maverick Quantum MT. I don't actually think there is much wrong with the old one but it wasn't tightened up well from factory and the servo horn looks a little chewed up so I'm hoping that the all metal parts with threadlock applied will sort it all out. Was scary installing a servo for the first time as I've never done it before but after letting it settle into position and a few trial runs it's fine. Just letting it all cure now and hopefully I can fix up the old servo for a 2wd buggy build in future 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any way it was a doddle and I shouldn't have been so concerned about fitting it. I've had a look at the old one and really it just seems like the plastic servo horn is a bit chewed so maybe if I can get a new metal horn it might be good for a buggy build in future. I'm keen on putting a Tamiya kit together like a Neo Fighter or something but then I've nothing stopping me from just splashing out on an Arrma Typhon so I'm torn between what to do 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blast and Cruise Posted April 25, 2021 Share Posted April 25, 2021 Power hobby Fans added, the fans work well, ive gone from 135f to 105f- on the motor, so more confident to add the high speed pinion now. Tekin motor stripped for inspection, before opening it up, i turned the shaft by hand, it didnt feel like it had much resistance, Rotor looks knackerd.
