I thought India Pale Ale lol

I have seen that 1:6 car show up cheap on charity auction sites, but since it’s so big the shipping would sometimesqq be as much as the car so I passed . What about a CW-01 axle with a 4 link for the rear ?

Lunchbox Racing!
Dakratfink replied to 87lc2's topic in Monster Trucks, 4x4, Wheelie Rigs and Crawlers
Does your club use Trigger King classes and rules ? -
Update, I still need to break in the dynamite.19 and install servos . The project kind of sat during the school year while I was teaching, but summer is nitro season.

Wheels from a Tamiya GF or G6 01 should work for a rustler. They are the same size as on a lunchbox , but the wheels have a 12mm hex. Otherwise, Jenny’s RC a kit break web site has a lot of Traxxas nitro parts and even if your nitro rustler is a vintage one , most of the modern parts from a new one should work

Why aren’t Tamiya “competitive” ? Because no one else can compete with a cartoon mascot bear popping wheelies on a black Lamborghini Tractor

I love that it’s stock ( bearings allowed) . Now that Parma is back up and running should allow the lexan Pumpkin and Lunchie bodies , too. -
Tamiya Super Clod Buster Decals
Dakratfink replied to RC4x4's topic in Monster Trucks, 4x4, Wheelie Rigs and Crawlers
Yes, but they also include the old style Clod bug catcher on the parts tree with the Super. Too bad they didn’t give the options on the decals too -
Not only will it work with a MSC, but you’ll be able to adjust the end points and trims on the channel 2 of your throttle servo. In fact I use 3 of the model presets on my GT3C for nitro models. So, basically same principle as a throttle servo for an MSc

I also used a GT3. as said above they are cheap , extra receivers are cheap, na dyou can bind up to 10 Models ( more if you modify and “jailbreak “ them )
-
I bought a tube of the CA glue with black rubber in it at my LHS. It was pretty good stuff. As long as you didn’t get it on anything you didn’t want it on .

Before belted tires became all the rage belting the inside of a tire with gorilla tape was quite popular.

I know Kyosho has made a few kit boats.

Sometimes when I have problems with a 1:1 vehicle or small engine repair , I step away to RC as a release from it. Plus, a Honda C70 Cub may be small, but I’m not strong enough to throw one across the garage 😂. Seriously, right now I have a scooter that was running, with NO spark, pretty sure it’s the points / condenser or the coil. Possibly all 3. But over the past 2-3 weeks I have felt like giving up ok the whole project. I understand your frustration.

Clear coat for lexan/polycarbonate bodies
Dakratfink replied to Saito2's topic in General discussions
In my military days we used floor polish like that to give our boots and dress shoes a mirror patent like shine . Like said above , if you mess it up you can strip it with windex. A lot of static model builders use it as a clear coat , too.
