I like the gearbox extension mounts. Might have to steal that idea for my modified frog! Awesome! Let me know how it goes. 8) Will do. Finished my modified grasshopper so time to revisit the frog. I modified the rear end to put the rear arms on bearings, and the diff has the screw mod. Main weak ar...

You could make a motor flag. A brass rod with a steel square on it. You insert it instead of the rotor and the flag should point to the center of the magnets. The magnets don't just lose magnetism, they lose center too. Would give you a feel for how strong they are. If you were in the UK, you could ...

WOW!

Yep, and I was GUTTED. I think the bakerlite core had gone brittle. The moment the cutter touched, it went bang.

If anyone happens to have a 12x5 armature so i can put that back to how it should be, let me know. It currently had a random 17 single in it and that situation distressed me

I like it!

Liking this!
As you can see from my grasshopper post, I'm all for trans swaps in this chassis!

Get rid of the awful front end too, even of its just with crp double wishbone parts.

Would really like a lexan grasshopper body for this.
I like the way the hard body braces the tub, but the rear wing section is fragile.

Was it parma that used to make one?
Not seen one for sale for a long time though.

I have some video, but no way of posting it here.
If anyone can, let me know. Thanks

Its first track outing was a huge success. It's far greater than the sum of its parts. Handles great, jumps great, it's amazing! A friend took this photo at the track. https://i.postimg.cc/nV4tP9Jf/FB-IMG-1673958037242.jpg Once the steering had been dialed in, it's very placable and stable, easy to ...

Mci decals and some old schumacher springs (the green was a happy coincidence!) Finished it off
