NIX91 Questions and Answers

[Mark Westerfield]

The display car brought to the Vonats this past weekend had some bump steer issues at full steering lock and at fully extended and compressed suspension.

Oh yeah, and optional rear arm mounts with 3 degree toe in per side with 1, 2, and 3 degrees of antisquat would be nice for raced cars.

It was a full surprise for me to see a thin nut under right side bellcrank/servo saver in this original Stealth steering picture. My current design does not have that nut as you can see from 2014-08-13 dated exploded view drawing. When I get back home next week, I will check a corrective action for this. Sorry.
This does not affect optional "race" steering.

It is interesting to see the top deck was so thin while the main lower chassis was comparatively super thick!! Will this be the same in the new 91 car? Good job anyway

[Niki]

Our lower deck is 3.2mm and upper is currently around 2.5mm. Thinner upper decks can be made in future I'm sure. We have to let Jakes mill to cool down first...
By the way, you have to cut front bulkhead upper part loose to have a tight fit with thinner top deck

I am all for thicker upper deck especially after seeing what happened to Masami's car up front

Yeah, we all know that Masami guy can't drive for beans....

I was a bit surprised to see how thin it actually was, I wonder why they went with the non symetrical top deck as some of the prototype cars had symetrical top decks.

I assumed the non-symmetrical nature of the top deck was due to the fact that it was possibly hand machined/cut rather than on a production line.

Will the parts list come with the chassis parts or will it be posted up as I've never got round to owning a rc10 till now I don't know all the parts I'll need

Have a look at the second post, the pic shows most of the associated part numbers needed besides screws

I did see that after I posted I'm now on the hunt for the parts I've already purchased 2 of the 10t steering assembly's one is NIP so the rest should just fall into place

[tiger1]

May I ask what kind of shocks are used in this project??

[GoMachV]

1.02 front and 1.32 rear, same as 10T series

[tiger1]

Thanks

In truth, all those cheap 10T's on eBay will be going like hot cakes!

Shocks, tranny, battery tray, bearings, crank screws, most other hardware, but you still need buggy dogbones or universals.

[tiger1]

I know it may sound silly, but, are we missing the antenna mount (and hole) on the chassis diagram in the other post???

So I basically need to buy a 10t as a parts car then
