Popular Post Mack1 Posted April 20 Popular Post Share Posted April 20 Took the G Wagon for an evening crawl on Hunstanton beach earlier and watch the sunset. Got a couple of nice shots as well. My fingers are just getting their feeling back now, it's quite cold out. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bunnie Posted April 21 Share Posted April 21 (edited) Got out my "paint booth" and painted a shell that I sold to my mate. Been a while so slowly getting back into it And a little shake down from the other day. Can't wait to take this for a little speed run 😍 20240414_194435.mp4 Edited April 21 by bunnie 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

markymarky Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 Rebuilt the back end of the Losi 5ive. Shock tower and rear uprights to come next, leaving the arms themselves plastic though so there is some "give" in there. Toying with the idea of using front shocks on the rear, the arms go down a long way with the rear shocks and you have to use the droop screws to set the ride height. Thinking if i used front shocks on the rear i might be able to do away with the droop screws altogether. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stormbringer Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 Arnt the droop screws there to protect the shocks from being pulled to far ? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well they definitely set the ride height cause the issue is the screws being steel and the chassis being aluminium the screws chew up the chassis and it can alter the ride height somewhat.

Popular Post steephill Posted April 24 Popular Post Share Posted April 24 Fitted the Bronco body. The front bumper is on backorder so I've fitted the one in the picture for now. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post steephill Posted April 25 Popular Post Share Posted April 25 Lowered the blazer high trail. Looks better than the stock height. Still needs a little more. Fitted some 1.9 beadlocks with the largest 1.9s I had. Removed the bump stops. The rear is fine. The front will need a short bump stop to stop the front tyres rubbing. Has a load of articulation. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yrkoon Posted April 26 Share Posted April 26 when did hobbywing start putting their esc's in tamiya boxes with a black coloured heat sink in stead of the purpley pink hobbywing heat sink 1060? before i opened the wild one box i took a spare brand new hobbywing 1060 out its box and linked up all the eletronics i was gonna use, so i was super surprised when i opened the wild one box to see a 1060 with a black heat sink, is that standard for tamiya now? 1060 esc's in the box 🙂 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
