mtbkym01 4008 Posted December 24, 2019 Mrs Claus bought me an Evaporative Air Conditioner for my man cave (with the proviso that she doesn’t see me inside as much 😂). I guess I’ll have no excuses to not get on with projects this summer 2 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Biz73 603 Posted December 26, 2019 A used Futaba S9351 servo that I got for $22 shipped. I have one in my Konghead and it works great. This one is going into my Midnight Pumpkin. The Protek 100ss is too fast and makes it "twitchy". I 'm working on having a lighter touch with both steering and throttle, but I still have a tendency to over do it.

yogi-bear 2321 Posted December 30, 2019 my eBay win from last week turned up, a M02 chassis with some alloy hop-ups. I couldn't see the rims in the initial listing pics and they turned out to be unused Honda S800 rims. So a good guess this chassis was for an original S800 kit. Ironically early this year I'd spent a bit of time tracking down a set of rims. I'm now tempted to track down another S800 body and then I can have a M05 version and a M02 version. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ThunderDragonCy 7886 Posted December 30, 2019 Cheap pre-painted shell destined for my TT02 Type S. Took a while to arrive, but it's ace! Fully painted and graphics, wing mirrors and rear wing to fit. Only have to cut out the arches (which is a pain) and around the bottom. Need to figure out how to locate the body post holes, but i am well pleased with having a shell that just needs a bit of cutting and drilling before use. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah it is, i wasn't ready to deal with a kit with all the other i have to finish. I do have plans for it however so i might start a thread for that. Maybe 78 will start a build as his a kit. In other news i got the last bits to continue with the brat build: 2019-12-30_04-54-29 by David Ashe, on Flickr 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Those Niassn Skyllin shells are rather good if you can ignore the sponsor logos. My nephew has the blue version on one of his TL-01s, and it has lasted well, surviving multiple impacts with no damage so far. We marked the body hole location using the paint-atop-the-body-post method. It worked well. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

moffman 5752 Posted January 4, 2020 Postie dropped this off while I was having my breakfast just before I went to work!

junkmunki 846 Posted January 4, 2020 My mate the postman has been back again. Technically this arrived on new years eve in 2019, but as i wasn't in to sign for it, it was taken to the local sorting office which closed early, so i only got to collect it today. It is absolutely mint, there is not a mark on the chassis, and the original rubber balloon over the MSC has done that melting thing from age... Unfortunately, it didn't come with a body, so i am on the hunt for one. J 9 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
yogi-bear 2321 Posted January 6, 2020 my latest arrival sucks big time, that's because its a new 10 CFM vacuum pump. Plus a few days before I bought some lengths of 30 mm RHS steel tubing, a couple of metres of 25 mm RHS steel tubing and some flat bar. and yes, all RC related pic of vacuum pump. 5 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
