Where's my Build Thread Badge?? Been a few days since I created this. Am I missing something? thought it was automatic.
I think ya hafta go into your profile & drop the link from this thread...or something like that. I actually had to have woodie help me to get mine cuz I didn't know what I was doing 😅

Hell yeh that worked. All the other onboarding tasks updated themselves but the build thread badge doubles as a link to your build. Thank's @joshludden!! 👊🏼
 
Got some more done tonight. Just gonna upload some photos tonight and then I’ll add descriptions of what I did later. I’m going to bed. I know the servo is backwards I already flipped it.

Rpm may have changed the dimensions to fit without the spacers. 🤷‍♂️ If they have no front to back play, I’d say they’re fine.
Good to know👍
 
This thing is bitchin!! Impressive parts list, glad to see you changed yor mind on the DS servo. Nothing wrong with a DS servo, but this thing definitely deserves better!! Awesome build!!😮😃😎
Thanks man! Yeh I couldn’t do it. Got a used one from a member for $105. My first probmodeler servo so I’m stoked to have a nice one finally. 👊🏼
 
How well does the carbon fiber queen parts hold up? These things get heavy quiiick
I have another K6 I got a from a member that has CF on it and they hold up very well! Haven't broken any CF yet. The thing I'm curious about is CF chassis I've been seeing...🤔
 
I just want to finish it and buy a fresh park qtr pipe ramp 😂. Seriously tho haha
I built my own ramps..30 and 45 degree. Actually just came in from sending my beefcake K6 build and my K8 far and wide. lol 🤣
 
I have a home built that's pretty nice but it's only got an extra inch or two to either side. Pretty hard to hit lmao
 
Broke it.

Fixed it.

Bearing cover came off and not sure what to do except order a replacement. Stock one is smaller. Afraid if I run til bearing blows out it'll ruin something else. Anyone know of a fix?? it's still a good bearing otherwise.

Those vitavon hubs? I think I've had to replace all of the inner bearings on all my vitavon hubs for that reason, seems like the outer race always comes off. Not really sure of a fix tho, other than just replacing them

Yep. I figured there wasn't anything you could do. Gotta wait til I have some more money.😳
 
All back together for the time being. Thank’s to @Tex Koder for the suggestion to flip bearing around until I can get a new one! Installed a 8s OC fan and heat sink and a 3D printed shock absorber for the HW can. Threw on some new copperheads.
