After two weeks I'm finally finished with what was originally intended to be a "short, quick project" that turned out to be anything but. Most everything else I do on my CNC is simple flat piece machining, like cutting out the shock towers from carbon fiber. Suspension arms are entirely di...
In admiration of 1300GT's 4wd SRB, I'm starting on my own attempt at building a similar car. I figured out a B4 slipper gearbox setup in this thread - https://www.rc10talk.com/viewtopic.php?f=32&t=44855 Now I'm mocking things up for the chassis. 2 3D printed replica MIP gearboxes, 3D Printed fro...

The purpose for this part was to enable me to use a hardcase lipo. I know it looks kind of wierd (reminding me of a Tamiya-chassi...

We used to live in Alabama a few years ago and there was a shelter nearby that had a pretty high euthanasia rate. Before we even moved down there, a friend o...
Ahh I finally found your post for the build. Mine is coming along slowly but surely. I plan to run a shorty pack with the motor in the stock position. I'm getting around the fact that the battery will stick out some on the left side by making a bottom "tub" out of carbon plate. Once again,...
The PLA parts all survived a race night! Check it out, someone even recorded videos of the races. Here's the 2nd qualifier I ran. The truck and the track felt the best in this run. I even managed to work myself up to 1st in the heat until the announcer called it and I promptly yeeted myself off the ...
