ghazghul Posted July 6, 2020 Share Posted July 6, 2020 I really enjoyed building the C24 kit, the body is really nice. The 1060 might be a bit big! I have a 1625 in my C14. Hoping to post some pics of it fully upgraded shortly. The C24 is currently just a roller, so is next for electronics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tourerjim Posted July 7, 2020 Share Posted July 7, 2020 ain't the 1025 and 1060 same size, 1060 having thicker wires, if it is smaller I may have to order one otherwise I'll be soldering thinner wires on 1060. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghazghul Posted July 31, 2020 Share Posted July 31, 2020 (edited) Mine is finally working well (touch wood). What it took: 1625 ESC GR3E receiver with case removed and connectors soldered direct to PCB to remove pins. This makes RX very small. 1200 mah 2S lipo HX900 servo Motor upgrade - the one that uses a motor with a reduction box and a transfer case. Speed is good on 2S. The two speed transmission hangs too low, I'll use it on the C24. Metal drive shafts - came with the motor upgrade. Adjustable links all round... the drive shafts are too long for stock links and bind. Metal suspension mount / axle brace. Required for the adjustable metal links. M2.5 bolts / washers / locknuts x lots Much fiddling. Not required, but I did: Metal axle housings Metal axle internals. Required for front metal housing and fitted in rear as diff. stripped. Metal servo mount / front chassis Steering link / tie rod Softer tires from the kit version Paint Edited July 31, 2020 by ghazghul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
