Mine is a gen1, so stickers are literally stuck to the body, but I’m not sure if the newer ones are lacquered on? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ag100 Posted August 11, 2022 Author Share Posted August 11, 2022 Did this a few weeks back, new Vitavon Chassis and centre brace fitted to the Lasernut. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ag100 Posted January 6, 2023 Author Share Posted January 6, 2023 Fitted a mini digital Motec screen to the Lasernut, it takes a feed from the ESC, so shows real-time throttle input and elapsed time. A guy called Scalebuilt on Instagram/Facebook makes them along with many other really good little scale bits, and he builds some awesome trucks too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IntrepidMercians Posted October 26, 2023 Share Posted October 26, 2023 (edited) Bought a (well) used Lasernut a while ago and have been slowly working through various snags: Wheels working loose and destroying the very shallow hex sockets - fixed by aralditing the drive hexes into the wheels and clamping with a G clamp until they were set. Driveshafts dropping out of the differential cups - fixed by adjusting the droop control bolts on the lower arms. Wheel-end hardware working loose (king pins on the front uprights mainly) - fixed by replacing the 16mm bore shocks with the rebuilt originals because the big bore parts were only allowing the buggy to use about 10mm of the wheel travel so punishing the wheel ends. You could see on hard bumpy ground that all the travel was coming from the tyres deforming which in turn made it unpredictable to drive. Rear wheels working loose and a propensity to roll when cornering - fixed by reducing the rear wheel camber from "some" to "none" at ride-height. Directional instability at speed on uneven terrain such as rutted tracks - cured by reducing the front wheel toe out to slight toe in. This was measured using a piece of string tied to the front bumper and wrapped around the wheels on the axle axis. Made an aluminium roof because it seemed to take a roll on every trip - fortunately fix 5 has made this less likely. It's fast, much faster than my Axial Bomber and suited to very different terrain.
