Composite Craft TRX-1 Double Decker

[mrlexan]

Not I, the guy whom got about 90% of the real good stuff, Jimshobbyshop aka Jsourbeck (Jim Sourbeck). I've only got table scraps.

Back when the taking was good, I didn't care about this stuff. I can distinctly remember going to an LHS with a friend that works for FoMoCo and seeing the shelves full of old stuff, but I didn't even think twice about it then. Another place told me that someone from G.R. bought a shelf load of MIP 4X stuff, coming from G.R., I can only assume it was him. But, you are right, there isn't much of anything left in Michigan. I have tried in my travels throughout that state (the wife and I like to travel). There are a few other people up that way that know exactly what to look for and have jumped when they had the chance.

I know traxxas copied many of the ae parts. I wonder if a motor plate from CC for the rc10 would line up with the holes of that tranny? I have one on my rc10 graphite and it matches your towers and chassis perfectly.

What do you means about CC motor plate ?
Do you have a picture ?

composite craft used to make motor plates back in the day. i've never seen one in person, only in magazines.

I have something that the great scr8p has never even seen!!!?

I found it NIP at the bottom of a bargin bin in some hobbyshop. I also dug out front and rear CC shock towers to match. I got it all for under $10

Im not good at the picture deal. Infact I've never even tried posting pictures but I'll see what I can do.

this build is fantastic. i really like this one a lot.

Great build, Cedric. I have a set of those shocks - I wondered who made them.

[mikedealer]

Cedric have you figured out how to mount a servo and a servo arm/saver in this car with the upper deck in place. every way i try and mount mine the brace interferes

[kenooze]

Mike, I didn't try to put in any electronics.
I will take a look and advise you about this.
But Top deck is always a problem for the steering servo.

[mikedealer]

ive been trying for the last 2 days to figure something out, not pretty

[kenooze]

Yep,

Not so easy.

But for the after sale, we could ask Ruffy.
He mat the guy who designed this double decker

[mikedealer]

yea ill ask ruffy, i cant figure out a way for the life of me.

i tryed mounting the servo mounts the opposite way so the servo sits in the middle and use a longer arm to clear the upper deck. seems like it would work, im using a A&L bellcrank on mine so the height is there

you think whats up with larrys rc the lights have been out for a week now? hope just on summer break.

larrys is moving soon to get a better deal on a building.....

[r6fanatik]

That is just awesome. Great build. Wish I had one.

Here is what I did with the steering servo install. Stock holes, and stock pieces. I think it should fit with your top plate. -Jeff
