ThunderDragonCy 7881 Posted May 9, 2020 Finished off a project on the CAD I've been meaning to sort for ages. The Kyosho gear diff in my modifed TRF201 transmission has become terminally leaky, so I finished off measuring it up whilst it was out of the RR03-Ra and grafted it onto my TA06 gear diff sized casing. Gonna leave it to sit for a couple of days in case I remember I've done something stupid, then get some off Shapeways. If it works I'll pop it up on the store. I think there's quite a few people out there with DN01s and TRF201X rear motor buggies who might like a reliable gear diff instead of the ball diff, or bodging it with a dremmel to fit the KYosho diff like I did. 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TurnipJF 9192 Posted May 9, 2020 Put a bit of red paint on my all-terrain postal delivery vehicle: This of course revealed several little imperfections that weren't evident in primer, so more sanding and painting to follow... 11 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ferruz 11702 Posted May 10, 2020 "Anytime, Baby!" It was a good -though way too cold- Saturday afternoon, spent in the woods with the Hornet and a book. Three battery packs and a couple hours of trouble free operation despite branches, rocks and many jumps at full speed, always a bonus when nothing's broken after the fun! 11 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Krustybus 214 Posted May 10, 2020 Fitted a motor upgrade. Should finish off the decals too but tearing up the garden is more fun! Until the pinion came off...oops🤦🏻♂️ Soon fixed though 👍 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nobbi1977 1793 Posted May 10, 2020 Ran the comical Grasshopper for the first time. 17.5t seems about right, still enough to flip it with to much throttle. Eat it’s servo so now a total strip down to get a new one in Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
moffman 5752 Posted May 10, 2020 Finished (well almost got the driver drying) my terra scorcher decided to fit a yokomo pro stock 2 just to give it a little bit more punch! very enjoyable no issues although when I was building it the gearboxes felt very notchy and even when built to the extent I stripped them apart again? I couldn't see anything wrong but it all soon meshed together after I put a battery through it! 10 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There is this one, which I gather was used for postal deliveries in Montana: Even Postman Pat has had to venture off road at times: So I have decided that my odd-looking G6-01 shell is going to be a mail truck - a decision made somewhat easier since I already have some nice red paint. Now to source some Royal Mail stickers for it! I love these 2!!!! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
