Anyone into R/C?

I got a upgrade for the wpl. Adjustable aluminum shocks with 3 spring options and hardware. Not bad for $8 shipped

 

Type this into eBay 232832145285 .
Took exactly 2 weeks to arrive

 

Ampro YouTube video shower those having issues with hardware and the ball ends

 

I just saw that but I don't see how it don't work the hardware seem to be exactly for it.

I'll give an update when I get them on but I got admitted to the hospital so idk when I'll be out :/

 

Sorry to hear that. I may come down there Tuesday or Wednesday if you need anything it will probably be a trip to the crawl space.....

 

I heard that place got a good make over. I may be here a while they suspect shingles in my brain

 

I know the new one in the springs looks nice from pictures and videos

 

I took my Barrage and Honcho for a spin today. New wheels and tires woke up the Barrage. A 50t motor on 3s woke up the Honcho. LOL.

 

Before and after 4 link, the first picture was the day I got it.

 

Took the wraith out yesterday. ~3miles and 70% of a 5000mah later and I'm really enjoying this truck. I've probably hiked 10 miles total with it now over 4 outings. The trans gears we're the only thing that hasn't stood up to abuse, but that was an easy fix. The esc, radio and servo were all upgraded but I do that off the bat anyway.
I've built up some axles for it but I'm not sure I want to put them on just yet as this is becoming a fun hiking trail rig.


The Honcho's are tons of fun to scale crawl but the Spawn is much more capable. When we go for a hike I piss off the lady crawling with the scx10 but the wraith let's me keep pace with her and the dog. Why didn't I get a 2.2 rig sooner?

 

So I got discharged today and had time to check out the wpl shocks . I installed one on the rr.

Yes they are terrible do Not buy them and here's why. The picture will say it all but I'll explain anyway.
They are too short
Off set is terrible there is no way to install them
The top mount screw is just worthless
Bottom mount leaves link sliding around on mount
And
The good
They look nice
Bottom mount does mount
Will make nice looking keychains haha

 

Bummer, glad you are sent home though

 

Yea 7 days in there was enough.
I emailed the seller I wanna see if he responds.

 

I got a reply for a partial refund for $4. Leaving me with $3.59 worth of shocks I guess that's too bad?

 

You should add a rising sun to your paint scheme

 

I got $4 in my paypal and I think I'll pick up a Ridgecrest this weekend

 

I waited at the front of the neighborhood to intercept the mail lady. Can't get caught with a new truck again this year. Had to add one of these to the fleet. Its different from an scx10, needs a servo.

 

Well recently got back into rc.

Picked up a couple new to me cars.
Scx10 old Toyota hard body and new body I painted




Then got a smoking deal on this trx4

 

Been in and out of RC since mid 80s..... always preferred Kyosho as they have always been pretty durable.
Here we have a few of my 1/8 scale 4wd buggies..... L to R... MP777 (which I converted to brushless electric), MP777 roller (converting to brushless electric), and an MP9e...

 

Does anyone have a set of 100mm shocks they'd be good with selling? I wanna get rid of my Gmade RSD piggyback shocks.
