Anyone into R/C?

@Strictlytoyz RC body update

 

The push button on the dx4c I had was finicky.

 

Just finished it up. Gonna let it dry overnight and I'll post photos after work tomorrow

 

@Kwikvette
Here's where it's at though



I also ordered some really thin lexan off Amazon. Gonna attempt to make a windshield and some windows.

But a real sleeper, badass

 

Thanks man, I'm pretty pleased with it for my first sttempt at something like this

 

I just realized, my MR24 transmission is geared for 21% overdrive.

Looking at the gearsets they offer because now that I'm going with a faster turn motor, I figured I'd run underdrive gearing in the transmission. That and some are on sale.

2.18:1 (21% Overdriven)(Stock in our pre-assembled MR24 Billet Transmissions) Paired with our Creeper brushless motor, this gear set option still has extremely smooth crawling capabilities with a little more wheel speed on the top end over stock.

No wonder I don't see the 21% option when you're at the transmission page.

Is this maybe why I don't notice that "stutter" at all when transitioning from crawl to moving and back?

 

More rc porn

 

That patina looks so cool, turned out amazing!

 

Micro Komodo is stuck in limbo still

 

Who'd you go through again?

 

Amain, and it shipped to Sacramento distribution center so it actually traveled past me and is only 3 hours away vs 4-5 where it originated.

 

Oh dang, I've had good experience with amain so far. Ordered quite a bit from them and it reaches hawaii in 3-4 days surprisingly. Either way, sounds like this one's on the shipping provider?

 

Oh for sure, it's a USPS thing and not Amain as they've always been good to me.

It's the Sac distro center that has a standing reputation for being slow as hell.

 

Definitely , I get stuff from Norcal in 1-2 days usually but A-main is always slower.

 

Same thing happened with that LGRP transmission.

Sat at USPS forever, yet stuff I mailed out via USPS got to IL and WA within a day and a half

 

@odomandr , have you been to this one in Greeley yet?

Wondering if it's worth the trip.

 

Good video of the downhill lurch and how to address it. My axles do not spin free from the wheel itself like he shows near the end.

I have. What are you looking for? They have rtr and some stuff on the floor. Every time I ask about a part they go in the back to check though so hard to say.

 

Crazy to see this and read back at the issues @Strictlytoyz had with his LGRP axle
