Re: My Kyosho Pro-X
Cool, welcome to the forum! There are a couple of those buggies floating around in here. I have one I restored and there is another new in box. What version is your car?

Re: My Kyosho Pro-X
I already saw that. Your Pro-X very already became. Mine is also the sport-version. The difference to the team are however only ball bearings and the tie rods.
I lack the upper plate above the servo and the gear covering.
My Pro-X looks like this now.

Re: My Kyosho Pro-X
It appears that your rear upper plate support is broken much the same as mine was. Do you still have the upper part of it? You could probably fabricate a post and drill a hole through the chassis bottom, then use a long screw from the bottom to fasten the top plate.

Re: My Kyosho Pro-X
I do not have the upper part unfortunately. I myself will manufacture that. I wanted to renew the editions just the same as you did it.

Re: My Kyosho Pro-X
I turned 8 mm of aluminum onto measure and put continuous M4 on threads. So I can attach the measuring rods from the chassis underside by means of flat-head screws and screw on the selfmade upper deck from abov.

Re: My Kyosho Pro-X
Wow! Very nice job on that. Do you have access to a mill or was the top plate made with a router?

Nice work on the front plate. Very tidy.
You need the Aluminum shocks as well to turn it into the "Team" car.![Wink :wink:](./images/smilies/icon_wink.gif)

Re: My Kyosho Pro-X
very nice handwork indeed: did you use a jigsaw and files, or the trusty dremel or ???
Those plastic shocks are actually very good. Their design is almost a direct copy of the gold shocks. Unless you plan to race this car every weekend for a year or longer I'd save the money on the shocks and use it for good quality electronics

Re: My Kyosho Pro-X
I think, the plastic shocks suffice for me.
I drilled, sawed and filed. I do not own a Dremel. So I will manufacture also the accu holder.
