I have been having issues with a modified bigwig, I fitted Top Force uni's and it seems to be ok now Love your work,,,,,,, Hi, yes, the dog bones are too small, i was pretty annoyed as they're an expensive hop up. I've got some old thundeshot universals on the front now which are fine and on the back i have added a small spring inside the diff outdrive and a 2mm foam pad inside the hub drive and the shafts seem to fit ok at that. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ah, ok I am pretty sure the Thundershot uni's and the Top Force uni's are the same part, Thanks for that Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ringding350 9 Posted August 23, 2020 Love what you've been doing @rc-martin. I've got a few pretty grotty HotShots, and a 3D printer, so I can feel a project coming on at some point. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KEV THE REV 2319 Posted August 29, 2020 Awesome project - hats off to you . How about black or carbon front damper bell cranks to blend in more ? . 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

fmannz 0 Posted January 27, 2021 Are there any files you can share to print the chassis locally? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
silvertriple 3557 Posted May 1, 2021 Awesome project. This Hotshot with 4 dampers remind me one I saw on a video with 5 dampers: It was made by a Japanase guy, probably a designer from Tamiya, it kept the orginal external design from the front, but had 2 dampers hidden in the chassis with pivots. But yours is already a great one :-D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
