Orders are now accepted for the Aluminum NIX91 kit. The kits features many of the same parts found on the Carbon Fiber version but we added an aluminum lower chassis machined from 7075T-6 aircraft aluminum which is hard anodized black. The kit contents include the following parts. NIX91-034 - 25 Deg...

Hey guys I have been a stranger the past several months and things have really been hectic for me. I managed to keep in touch with most but some of you definitely got left out and I apologize. I am turning things around slowly and hope to be more active here. I will be updating information for the N...

I deleted my personal FB account years ago because it was pointless. I recently created a new FB for pure purposes of marketing some of the items Niki and I are working on which is actually quite successful. We have gained a lot of attention from a wide RC audience with our recent FB attempts. You w...

Car looks good, what problems are you encountering? This should be a plug and play type deal.

I need to get one of these.

Have no fear guys, planning is underway for the chassis kits for these cars. Niki and I have been speaking about this project now for a couple weeks and we have finally ironed out the details. I will be updating the business section with all details. Lots to cover.

Jason, what you need are custom aluminum axles what will fit SAE bearings.

Well since this is my first CAT I have no experience with the car and I could see how the small pitch of the pulleys and belt could possibly build up dirt causing the belt to skip terribly. The great news is my local track is a carpet offroad facility so I should not any issues as long as I clean th...

I messed around with the car again trying to figure why the drive train had so much drag and I found the problem. The two eccentric housings that press around the bearings were completely worn out and did not support the integrator bearings, causing the out drives to rub on the inside of the eccentr...

That picture makes perfect sense not, thank you very much. The car came partially assembled and was done so impropery so that is why my judgement is way off right now. Yes I am looking forward to making the car an occasional racer that will be fun to drive as well as work the way I want it too. Stay...

Thanks for the info guys. I was lucky enough to get an XLS and CAT manual. That link does help a bit more but the pictures still leave alot to be desired. I am hoping to pick up an MMS ball diff for the front and the rear of the car to get rid of that integrator and the front spool. I am still confu...

Ok guys I just picked up a CAT which I believe is an XL. I received the car in several pieces and I know I am missing some parts for the car. I took the opportunity to tear down the drive line and look at the car since it was binding and the drag was so severe there is no way the car would operate p...

That fiberglass 12LW sure does look familiar,

Great collection you have going.

The instructions are classic :lol: I guess I was using the wrong charger since my batteries got hot all the time during racing and charging. My old Tekin BC100 is definitely outclassed by master piece. This is the exact reason why it boggle my mind that people like the Hot Trick stuff. You can say t...

I have always loved the siebenelch and with the carbon fiber chassis you can really get the look. That is a very unique rear tower and reminds me of the ultima rear towers. Great looking car. edit - Is that a front tower drilled to mount to the rear bulkhead? Sure looks like it. Very creative. Jake

Dang Jason, I have not been following the threads much lately, I can't believe you are actually working on a car and making progress.

Looks really nice.
