Sold now thanks 

[Pair of MIP drive shafts. Sold now thanks]

Afternoon guys.  I have a pair of MIP shafts no good to me. To long for some and to short for the others. Both are around 100mm at fully compressed. 130mm once at full length.  Scratched up but still working perfectly.  All joints are good.  Say £50 for the pair or swap for rock crawler parts.  Anything considered. I'm fully open for offers on them. Price is not set.  Sling me an offer if you want to.

Bit slow this week or 2. Little one on holiday so all my time is spent looking after him. And having massive fun messing around.  

Then I got the flu at the weekend. So that's me done for most of this week. But managed to smash the Capra herja together.  Just need to make some links next and a few bits to arrive to finish it off .and got any idea in the pipe line. Ideas ideas ideas. Always to many to make them all. But slowly coming together

Sold. cheers

[Cheap Capra metal axle case.]

Hero guys.  Got this set of cases. No longer needed. Good condition with no damaged threads. Only used once before I changed my set up. Say £20 all in. 

[Small group in Gloucester]

We do indeed.  Not as much as i did.  But your always welcome. If your on Facebook join my group. Gloucestershire RC club and put a post up asking about meeting up. We can arrange a meeting with the bashers 

[What did you do to your model today?]

Pulled my Capra apart to make a second shafty based around it .  Basic idea is sorted.  Needs links making and some parts designed and printed. But it should be good once it's done 

[What did the postie bring you today?]

One metre of 12mmx2mm aluminium tube.  For a idea I have for my sporty project.  I also have the same tube of carbon coming.

[What did you do to your model today?]

Did more work to the weight hangers.  Rear is definitely done now.  Fits wheels with at least 45mm clearance In the wheel. Holds 4 11x11mm weights.  I'm using brass.  But you could make lead ones. Or make tungsten ones if you have the money. 

[The Viking cove RC herja chassis is born]

Printed spot on.

Did some more work on the larger front weight hangers.  Think the hanger is finished now.  Just got to finish design on the wheel part now.

Been done before. Hangers sat on a separate bearing... trouble is they can rock around sometimes causing jerkiness....

That's what I thought. Any hard bump or movement is going the make the weights swing around messing everything up.

[What did you do to your model today?]

Got the herja ready for a day out as the wife's at the office on a Wednesday. Get car ready. Then 2 minutes before I'm heading out get 2 guys from the gas company telling me there is a problem with the gas riser. And they have to replace it.  Cut to a few hours manic cleaning the kitchen so they can pull it apart to replace said item. What bloody fun lol.  Car went back on its shelf for the week.

So as the wheel rotates the hanger is able to move and always be at bottom of wheel?

I could try and make something to do that.  And see if it would work.  But I'm guessing that there isn't anything in the market that does this.  Might mean it's not worth working on.

Hey Hell Horn I can picture it now, thats really quite ingenious yet as with all good ideas obvious! Barring dirt ingress in the rims, possibly causing any obstruction are there any downsides? 

The big downside is you lose a good chunk of the flex you get from tyres.  With the wheels we use.  They run tyres about 5.5 Inch.  So with a 2.2 wheel we get 3 inches of flex give or take a bit.  Remove an Inch or so from the hanger part of the wheel.  It makes choosing foam's even more important to get right.  To hard and the Tyre doesn't flex enough.  To soft and it bottoms out on the tyre to easily. Get it right and jackpot.  Not everyone wants to or needs to run this set up. I just wanted to build an option into my range of parts if wanted.  And I want to give it a try and see how much or a difference it makes.

No the hangers are fixed to the hubs.  They don't spin.  

[The Viking cove RC herja chassis is born]

You can see in this pic the most extreme version of the hangers.  As you can see the weights are fixed to the axle hub.  And then sit right down inside the wheels.  And you can see with the car picture how they work.
