Anyone into R/C?

Nope, that was purely torque applied f/r moving the pinion in and out. Solid shims have taken care of that. I need to find some more, I have another set of the same axles waiting and they will need the same.

 

This is what I used on my worm gears. Purchased through amain

 

That'll work. If I can't find the rest, I'll get those. I used some that sat behind the bearings and moved them in on the worm.

These guys showed up today...buuuut I may have to go back to foward motor mount and mount these in the rear

 

I think my local hobby shop carries that brand, I hear they're good

I didn't realize you were rear facing at the moment!

Take another weight screen shot before and after swapping the motor position to see how much carries over to the front

 

D3cided against it for now. Mostly laziness gonna just get some smaller 3s batteries and run these 450mah on the Ascent. Orrrrrrr I can just stop being lazy

 

Everyone going 3S on their crawlers, I'm gonna have to find what fits on the BOA mount since HP didn't have any 3S in stock.

 

Doesn't hardpark make a battery specifically for the mount?

 

I bought this, maybe it will fit without changing your layout.

may have skimmed over that part

Gonna pick up a couple of the 250mah galaxy batteries. Measure out at 21 x 40 x 17mm. They don't measure much bigger than the 2s which is 21 x 40 x 13mm. Just a little thicker

 

Pealm Beach gives you not only the weight, but dimensions of each and every one of their batteries.

That sort of spoiled me which is why I won't bother with other batteries, not to mention Andy checks them all out before they ship.

The two I charged/discharged already are nearly identical between cells.

Painted! Pretty happy with the results. Didn't take a picture but I also painted the interior bits. My 1/10 Tacoma is going to be a serious high effort build, just wanted to have fun with this body. Still need to trim the fenders to clear the wheels, paint & weather the wheels, and figure out how I'm going to mount it. I'll have to cut out the bed a little bit to clear the chassis and suspension.

 

Also not exactly RC but I finished this up yesterday. Swapped wheels over from a HotWheels Lexus GX, painted using a Pyrite Mica touch up pen from Toyota.

 

Any of y'all wanna buy a new Mini Komodo (2000KV) and new LGRP rear axle with rear link mount?

I don't think I'll use any of it as I'm thinking of getting a Hard Park rear axle for the second build.



Got tons of extra hardware that'll go with.



Otherwise this will just go into the shed

 

My mazz order is out for delivery

 

Oh shit, I didn't realize mine was delivered.

I'll have to grab it in a sec. Was on the phone and hanging out with the kiddo.

 

My nacho chasis and body come in tomorrow too. That'll be the next build. Once wt micro has bodies again that'll be the third
