looks good...

you'll still bend it tho... how much? and did you get spares made?

It defiantly won't bend. The slipper shaft will snap first under pressure.

It was

[Matt B]

Not much I can really do but as long as I don't do landings with power the slipper shaft should last a long time.

I'll sort you out details matey.

Cheers, I'll see how you get on with yours first before getting one made up.

Nick, I think you are going to have to wear a hat and goggles like this for the first run with that new ESC

[Kpowell911]

the first of the transmission upgrades.

I know remember seeing your thread asking about uprated Revo Diffs, this is i presume why lol

[wol]

That thing is made of solid 10mm 303 stainless steel and isn't technically very long, I think you would need special powers to bend it.

As Nick said, it cost

[Bazzokajoe]

its solid?

dam...

i was under the impression it was a tube

i think the rest of the car will just wrap itself around it rather than moving forward...

Hehe, yep it's a solid bar! Just the ends machined out for the outputs.

[Revorocks]

Crikey, you could use that shaft as a driveshaft for a small car!

[Nick]

Got a nice update from MGM on their progress. Controller should hopefully be shipped out tomorrow, all with new firmware. Can't wait to be the first person in the World to own one.

It comes with a 2 year warranty but he mentioned they are fairly relaxed on this, still replacing 5 year old ESCs! Top service by the sounds of it.

I paid extra for water resistance, which they have said is extremely reliable, so yes, this will be going out in the SNOW AND ICE and every jump I get a chance to aim for! Muhaha.

[.AJ.]

Cant wait to see the esc, sounds the utter mutts nutz

[graveyardshift]

its gunna be mental....

[henzy190]

good lord... this is just mad! I'd like to see how pricey it all was though...

and those driveshafts would be better off in the hands of car manufactures.

epic!!!

[alexpollard]

Ok, I was going to get a bigger family car but I think the wife will have to wait... I want one!!! Perhaps in my SCRT10 if it ever turns up. How do you spell divorce?

[Nick]

Tidying through my many boxes of RC junk I came across something I found left after a TM bash... I did ask around and post several times saying would someone claim it, anyway, after 5 months. I've claimed it myself.

HPI Savage Wheelie Bar, it actually fits amazingly to the RPM rear bumper! Hehe, so excited, can really NAIL THE POWER now.

2 wheel powaaaar!

Not long now until the ESC! Going to bore a pinion out this week hopefully to, the waiting is killing me.

[creamsodauk]

that is going to be the fastest looking wreck ever!

It's going for the Sleeper look!

[HUNTER.P]

at least get a new shell, and see if you can break the record for destroying it as fast as possible

I already hold that record.

[HUNTER.P]

I already hold that record.

Maybe a roll cage design for this?
