Popular Post Borked Posted August 12, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted August 12, 2022 Fitted my new aluminium hubs to the Carnage. Much less play in the suspension now. 😁 Also tried a steamer for removing tyres... The guy who sold me the XB4 and B6.1 race buggies included it with all the other stuff. I was pretty skeptical about its chances of working, but it actually did pretty well! Stick the timer on for 30 minutes and the tyres come off with only a little bit of pursuation! It's not perfect - there's a few small bits of rubber left on the wheels. I pulled some good tyres off some knackered Bugsta and Carnage wheels. I've got some acetone on the way that I'm going to try too, to see which gives a better result. I think the acetone vapour will win, but will take longer. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post MrCake Posted August 13, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted August 13, 2022 Another early trip out with 2 x cars that don't get as much time as others. No rain is not great for the UK, but the time it takes to give the cars a clean after makes things a lot easier, Can see me turning into a fair weather RC'er! 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Mike_J_Smith Posted August 14, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted August 14, 2022 Finished the strip, clean and rebuild of my truggy. Had a good look for broken parts and was surprised to only find a couple of minor issues, which I’ll either ignore for now or had spares for already; happy days 😀 Also lengthened and rerouted the esc switch to keep the wires clear of the drivetrain. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

supersavage Posted August 14, 2022 Share Posted August 14, 2022 Removed the servo from the LMT which has a nice rattle to it. I also think I was lucky it didn't take the receiver with it as it smells like it got a bit warm. I'm going to try and send Modelsport a message and see if they can replace the servo. To be honest I don't think they will but there's no harm in asking. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post MrCake Posted August 17, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted August 17, 2022 Not a massive thing but fitted the wheels I got as part of my LCRacing deal to the HBX Pro and think they look pretty good. Slightly larger in diameter, but did it more that these feel a softer compound than stock. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Borked Posted August 17, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted August 17, 2022 Did this at the tarmac BMX pump track and had a fantastic time doing it! Hahah. I love this hobby. I think I’ll upgrade the hinge pin brackets to aluminium as I’ve had to replace the plastic ones a couple of times. My aluminium bumper holder lasted for a couple of years, so not too surprised it eventually gave way. I might have to make something more substantial this time around. Titanium would be nice for some sparks, but would end up costing more than the car’s worth 😂 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
