Recommended Posts

What are the lengths of the tie rods on the Super Astute? I wanna change them out to turnbuckles.

Love the look 😊

Meanwhile the new decals arrived and I corrected my mistake. Have now a few stickers as spare 😅And that was a great tip with the number 5 sticker. I made two cuts and works perfect. Got also the first pieces of the front high cap dampers. Springs are on the way, so hopefully will be ready by the end of the week ☺️

I went for the closest measurement Schumacher ones, as couldn't find 42mm tamiya ones

Check rcmart for 3Racing titanium turnbuckles. They have heaps of sizes, are cheap and I haven't bent or broken one yet

Kyosho has titanium turnbuckles too.  Part #92413 (38mm), #92414 (42mm), and #92416 (50mm).   They look similar to the vintage Technacraft tie rods which I have always liked the look of.  You stick an allen key or similar thin tool into the hole to adjust.
