J@mes 2326 Posted February 4, 2020 Finished assembly of my Superduper Blackfoot from new old stock parts. Gotta get a driver fitted & stealth body mounts & other minor details to sort out but really pleased with it, about as good a Blackfoot as I could come up with, looking forward to a test run. 8 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Re-Bugged 10155 Posted February 4, 2020 Is that a King Blackfoot rear end on that chassis @J@mes? I do hope they get re-re’d sometime. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It’s a super Blackfoot with a Bush Devil body or you could say it’s a bush devil done in mk1 Blackfoot colours. But yes you’re right, Same rear as KB I did briefly consider doing a Super Monster Beetle but I seem to have more of an obsession with the pick ups Hows your MB coming along @Re-Bugged?

Terrible obsession you have to live with, glad to see you thriving on it though. MB is coming on slowly, I was hoping to get some primer on the body but looks like we have a week of storms brewing as I type so that might not happen?

KalEl63 695 Posted February 4, 2020 Installed the shocks on the CR-01 and had to do the old can articulation test Had to adjust the rear top shock point due to the shortening of the wheelbase but i now get the same travel at each end after a few hours messing around in the garage 11 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TurnipJF 9192 Posted February 4, 2020 After running my CC-01 for several years on a TEU-101BK zip tied into a balloon for waterproofing, I have brought it up to date at last by replacing this with a waterproof 1060. Along with the existing SR300WP RX and S3014 servos, my electronics are now all puddle-worthy. In addition to achieving a neater installation with no need for a balloon, I can now run LiPo without having to find somewhere to put the alarm. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But I wanted you to know that I never get tired of seeing it, so do keep it up! Such a cool riff on the look of the original. brrrrrrmmmmm! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
