Went with the Hobbywing brushless 3650 motor and ESC combo. https://www.amainhobbies.com/hobbywing-xr10-justock-g3s-sensored-brushless-esc-sd-g2.1-motor-combo-hwa38020372/p1544565 And a Reedy Hi Speed servo. https://www.amainhobbies.com/reedy-2513mg-digital-hispeed-metal-gear-servo-high-voltage-asc2...

Not a YZ10, but close

Went to Amazon the other night, real quick right before bed. Searched for low profile servo. First one that came up was identical to the ones I usually get, just low profile. Hit Buy Now.

Finished up cutting and mounting the TOJ. Surprisingly not butchered....and no blood drawn.

https://i.imgur.com/9pmmKQb.jpg Bag C is for the steering servo, and battery cup. My servo won't be here for a bit, so I'll leave Bag C sealed for now. https://i.imgur.com/aF4Dhtz.jpg Time to get the rear half built. https://i.imgur.com/umU3iK2.jpg That's a big D bag. Comes with three different set...

Rear half. https://i.imgur.com/zupeWSx.jpg This DS manual is sabotage at this point. How did this happen, where the ball stud busted out of the backside? https://i.imgur.com/1vtKAPa.jpg The manual shows this picture, but in the 1:1 size chart on the cover flap, the ball studs are not available to me...

Vintage manual sorted it out.


Going to keep the vintage manual close by from now on.

unfortunately AE forgot about thew Worlds holes on the new bulkheads. Best alternative is the inside under the wing tube holes where you have them. It was always impossible to get a driver in there haha. A tamiya took just sqeaks by

Just don't put the trans brace on upside down like they did

I've never built a DS so I appreciate that you're documenting your build here.
I'll definitely be coming back when I'm ready to build mine.
Thanks.

That Tamiya tool tip made it happen, thanks GoMachV ! https://i.imgur.com/k1eMFWe.jpg Moved the ball stud to the 'correct' location under the wing tubes, and now with the rear camber tb set according to the DSC manual, I have crazy negative camber. https://i.imgur.com/LebDGEn.jpg https://i.imgur.com...

Going to get the correct gap, then try to apply it to the other side to see if I have it exactly correct, and then report back with the actual setting necessary. Eyeball it for now. Then set your camber at ride height. https://www.amainhobbies.com/rpm-precision-1-10th-1-8th-scale-camber-gauge-rpm70...
