hayabusa95 42 Posted January 14, 2022 Hello, Since 2015, im following some topics on this forum which shares Tamiyas' only before. Maybe Im wrong b/c following 'The Builds' section. Im glad you are sharing other brands. Its my first topic which looks like a topic, let me introduce myself. Im Barış, from Türkiye. There are a little communities here, R/Cs very expensive including second hand. I like this forum cause members are very kind and they are trying hard on their builds. (And I love TAMIYAs) I had some rtr vehicles, kits and a scratch build. Now, returned this hobby, I dunno why The plan was sharing the 1st topic about that kit. Im following their topic for benefit Thank you @Mad Ax @joeling Ordered MST MTX-1 month ago and the other parts, still waiting for servo, transmitter.... (b/c of covid transporting is very slow) also contacted amainhobbies about shock oil issue where i ordered the kit, they sent a bottle of 10wt. Electronics 3-pole reedy 16t brushed w/1060 esc on 2S. Powerhd waterproof 23kg digital servo. Now, waiting for shock oil and focusing paint. Its harder than before, planned bad paint schema. Which is darker, which paint should I start with... confused. Im sure i can handle it. Here are some colors which im gonna use on this body. New can about 124-132 grams. (PS-1, 55) PS-59 104gr. , '15' 90gr. , '41' 75gr. PS-41 feels like there are 1/4 maybe less paint in it. What is the empty can weight? 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hayabusa95 42 Posted January 22, 2022 Snow Runner ❄❄ Stucked 2-3 times, but its was fun looking him whole run. People metioned '' Watch out TOYOTA, dont bump into that!! '' After run, visual check OK. Used green slime on shocks, its sticky and very hard to clean, so shocks might be good. Im worried about other parts maybe water leaked in, not sure where to check. How often re-oil bearings, how? WD-40, drying then oil, enough? 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hayabusa95 42 Posted January 27, 2022 Custom sponsor plate build Used acetate sheet, middle and bottom screws are longer m3x25mm with plastic spacer, from kit leftovers. Mat black vinyl wrap. Im not sure about cutting half and using middle, bottom screws to hold. Work in progress. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hayabusa95 42 Posted February 1, 2022 Smaler, no air bubbles. Try a lot but its too hard to do without bent. Added one more spacer behind top screws. Working on stickers... Setted -20 timing that gives more punch torque, much better but still just a little wheelie on carpet. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nikko85 3453 Posted February 10, 2022 Great truck, and brilliant intern. I remember walking around Istanbul and being amazed by the number of cats. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hayabusa95 42 Posted February 10, 2022 @GeeWings 👏👏 @Nikko85 Unfortunately, you may see ownerless dogs and cats in my country. I live in capital people building shelters for dog herds. Uncontrolled birth of cats, havent seen them around in europe as far as what I seen on TV. Salvador- intern, we saw him about 6 years ago in a box a girl carrying. He has broken rear leg dont remember left/right, had surgery, healed. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hayabusa95 42 Posted February 15, 2022 Today 2°C , punch and top speed was better at first, temperature effect on battery I guess. I have never seen wheel threads on other cars, very interesting. Hope you enjoy the footage 💨 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hayabusa95 42 Posted February 19, 2022 Just a little update Part numbers SCX2-6063-6BK (Stock hex adaptors fall off easly, and pins!) 106032P (Looking for more power in budget) Without modification on gear cover it is the biggest pinion you could use. I havent found Hot Racing 20mm wheel hub extensions on a website which ships here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
