Anyone into R/C?

Broke one. Lost two!!! F'ing things. Got to go to hobby shop and hope they have more

 

Yep, thank God Associated stopped using them a few years back, the little captive button-head screws are way easier to deal with. Medical grade hemostats was the best way to mount them for me when dealing with them. I've poked holes in my fingers too many times tring to push them on with a small flat bladed screwdriver.

 

My SC10 has e-clips on it? Not very many, at all... But, they're still on there. And they IS bitches.

check this out...slowly painted the raised letters white with a tire pen

 

The guy at the hobby shop felt bad. He sold me the wrong lock outs, so he gave me 3 bags for free.

Well not for free the part was two dollars less. So I guess I got 3 bags for 2 dollars. Lol
Thanks for the find!!!

 

Tires are sick

 

I am in a cross rode in my build.
1) put the stock running gear together for the kit.
Or
2) take the running gear from my wraith (45t Holmes motor) and put it in the kit
Or
3) build the tranny from the kit and put the 20t stock motor from the wraith in the kit.
Or
4) or build the kit tranny and wait for the 35t Holmes motor.

 

Also do I put my tekin fxr in the kit and put the Holmes esc in the wraith or the opposite

 

such an awesome track

Wow

 

Slowly but surely!!!

 

SCX10+Wraith axles and running gear = <3

 

In case anyone didn't know... Don't use WD-40 in the house. Smells.

 

Haahaahaahaa

 

I thought about that too. I want to get the vanquish axles and 4ws for the wraith

 

I freaking love building kits. I'm so anal about it, every single part gets inspected, all flashing removed by either a Xcato or Dremel, test fit then assembled. I remember a buddy bragging that "I built my new truck kit in four hours", I replied, "I spent longer than that on my shocks".

 

I think I may start on a kit when I can afford one . . .

Something ridiculously cool . . . Not an EXO, though..

Hmmm.
