Found a use for one of the extra 35mm rocket fans I got. 
My FMS Smasher with Losi mini LMT tires. I realized there was just too much blue on this truck.
Slowly swapping parts and changing the body color to break up all the blue.
I like the new look so far and will post a picture of the final look.

That truck is looking spot on brother! Deff a little blue goin on. I'm cool w/ that though my favorite color is blue.
I wanted to wait for it to be completely done before I showed it, but I am getting too excited to show it off.
My other Smasher is blue and white, and this one will be white and blue. Once the blue stripe down the side of the body is on, hopefully, it will have the look I'm going for.

Just killing some brain cells.
It's time to sort out the center diff on the K4. It's just way too loose, diffs out like crazy. I wouldn't know why....

The 2028 1100 4s batteries still have to mount the esc but I body fits not pretty still have to make some parts
Surprisingly, no. Just not thick enough for the torque that the Max8 combo serves up. It won't have that problem after I'm done

Hah! That's exactly what I'm doing right now!!
Had to bring down the crazy from the other ramp. Other ramp was darn near a 90. This one is approx 45ish. I just free handed 1 and traced for the other side. It's a guess and it'll be good enough. It's 4ft wide on the bottom of those and like 2 3/4 feet tall. Should be a much better ramp then what I've had

HELLYEAH bro!!! The timing lol!!!
Mine is 33”x56”, and they will be identical side plates (x4), as I’m building two ramps to live side-by-side. One is 6’ wide, and the other being 4’ to make a single 10’ wide ramp. These two are the first pair of MANY. This is a decent kicker to yield some proper height, as well as distance. I’ll be doing a bunch of landers as well. Yours looks great man! Can’t wait to see the finished product! Maybe we oughta have a dedicated ramp building thread too?!?
My camera setting sucks balls no matter HOW I set it… At any rate, just laying out the transition, then I’ll cut, flip, and use as a template for the remaining (3) side plates.. then onto the FUN part..
Made some adjustments to my outcast 4s to prep for its 2nd time out since being rebuild after its fire. Put in the stock firma esc from the typhon, new center drive shaft, motor mount/gearing and receiver and a battery mount from the. Typhon, then made a couple tuning adjustments since its first test run. Hoping today it’ll be running great. Either way it’s good to have my outcast back. I love this little truck and didn’t have it in me to trash it after it burnt up so I reworked it.
