Dakratfink 967 Posted August 26, 2020 My rounded stick pack Lipo from Ai Express arrived . Now my Midnight Pumpkin can go Lipo ( I also have a GoolRC ESC combo that has yet to find a home , perhaps a brushless pumpkin ?) I only have one dean’s plug left . So I will either need to 1) make up an adapter, 2 install the Deans on the TBLE in the Pumpkin, 3) commit to installing the new system in the Pumpkin. I also need to pick up some more deans plugs . Anyone know any sellers that sell just Male ends of the connector. I have a surplus of female plugs for some reason . 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ernieks 130 Posted August 27, 2020 So, it happened. After the clear TA-03 gear cases some weeks ago the Postman was good to me again and brought the fluorescent yellow gear cases for the TA-02 today. So happy now! Big special thanks to OCD who is a top TC'er to deal with. ernieks 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ChrisRx718 4470 Posted August 27, 2020 Rcmart order which only took 3 and a half weeks, pretty much back to pre Covid time! So to break it down I have many goodies for my XV01 including slipper clutch and the aluminium suspension mounts. Other goodies for the FF03, including some suspension blocks, diff outdrives and a faster servo. Some MST pre-glued wheels and tyres, although there's a lot of glue residue on the tyre walls which isn't great. Ah well. Couldn't resist seeing how they looked: Pretty nifty 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ploots 185 Posted August 28, 2020 Some new boots, new bearings and some new wheel nuts for my sandscorcher, it's the first time it's had new tyres in 36 yrs, I'm not sure these will last 36 yrs now it's a bit more livelier with the sport tuned motor 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DarkSonic 212 Posted August 29, 2020 The last missing bit for the Zahhak was the pinion gear. Missed it to order the last time. So first drive on Monday. The TRF419 adjustable suspension mount is for testing purposese. Will see, if I can adapt these parts on the Top Force rear suspension. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
