What did you work on today?

[Pat_ranch]

You are a real poop!


That "pistol" needs a grenade launcher! Very nice, the ruger too.

The mkiii with scope is reeeediculous on steel out to around 200. I can't hold steady enough past that. The other one I kinda put together for the kids. It's nice and light, and fairly accurate with the cmmg rimfire kit. You should build one!

It's not worth it here in the Republik of Kalifornia, if it's legal now it won't be tomorrow. It does look fun though! I have to be happy with my current stuff or else I can't get more RC's

Someone else had thick orings that they slid over the back of the can. I am going to find some.

If you find some, let me know. Would be a less invasive way to deal with the issue.

Haven't started yet but will be a bench day for sure! Going to change gearing in the Limitless, install servo and ESC back in the TyphCast/Outcast and fix center diff, replace broken A arm on the Granite, hope I can fix fans on the Typhon motor and maybe replace upper hinge pin mount on the K6s as one side keeps coming loose almost every bash. Oh and maybe switch the Granite motor out for the Spektrum 2050 kv and up pinion to 20t.

Here is a listing I bought from. I grabbed 3 sizes since I have varied can sizes.

uxcell O-Rings Nitrile Rubber, 50mm Inner Diameter, 60mm OD, 5mm Width, Round Seal Gasket Pack of 10 https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07DGC8KW3/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glt_fabc_NZK689YPC8RMQ5TY3N72

Guessing a 40mm ID would be what I'd want. Maybe the 35mm so it would hold onto the motor on it's own? All the motor's I run are 40mm. BLX2050kv and the rocket 4092.

Changed out the saver for a solid losi horn on all 3 mini’s. No more zip tie on the saver to tighten it up..

 

[Edough13]

Got a good amount done off my list so far. Limitless pinion changed, perfect pass installed and MMX8S recalibrated. New servo and BLX185 installed in the TyphCast, also shimmed and refilled center diff with new 500k. Fans on the Typhon motor are toast have to order some new ones. Still have the Granite rear A arms to replace and put in new reciever. And replace the upper hinge pin mount on the k6s.

 

[TriggerHappy]

Replaced the rear arms with rpm and mudgaurds yesterday. Today went ahead n pulled the front diff out to check clearances and clean out and change diff oil was just guna do front arms may as well check them since iv run about 30-35 packs thru it. Just did the center last week. May as well do the rear for last then im done upgrading the noto.

Why do brushed motors still use crappy bullet connectors from the Tamiya days?

Chopped out this “Dynamite” 540:

and replaced the connectors with nice 4mm ones and dropped in some 550 power! Holmes Hobbies CrawlMaster Sport 10T!

unfortunately it was too late to try out tonight.

Started another project



When I’m finished it will be a Enduro IFS based Pre-Runner with trailing arm rear suspension, something like this one

I worked on posting these pics of my almost finished Tamiya MK2 Escort

Prepping 300 rounds of dasher brass for a 2 day match this weekend. Quite mind numbing.

Primerless ammo with new stealth slugs, always the trend setter this guy!

this just comes my mind...

this just comes my mind...

Won't be quite that fast, but it'll feel like it. We'll have around 4 minutes per stage (total) for each 2 man team to find 3-5 targets ranging from 350- 1000 yards. Then both of us have to engage each target 3x. And there'll be positional stages where we'll have to shoot from barricades, which always kills the clock. It's pretty rare to not time out on one or two stages during a match. I'm mainly hoping it doesn't snow.

Well the TyphCast is now officially back to an Outcast. Got the Kraton arms, turnbuckles and driveshafts installed today. Tired of snapping rear arms as with the Mojave arms and backflip LP's the rig has no chassis slap so all the stress goes to the A arms. Now need a new body as the 51' does body is on its last half leg

Damn it just realized front turnbuckles are backwards
