What did you work on today?

[BashingBrian]

The cable management idea is awesome ??, I've no idea why all the others M2C, Voltage etc don't do this..?

?????

? Only managed to mess up one connector. Overheated it and the plastic twisted. Good thing I had extra connectors on hand.

Small hack in case you don't know, keep a male and female attached while soldering connectors. Once done, let cool then separate. Less likely to waste connectors this way, but not impossible.

Great idea ??

That's what I did after messing up the first one. Worked great, with less heat stress on the plastic.

Cleared off more trees and brush to widen my primary bash spot this evening

I managed to snap the drill whilst making a hole in my Voltage tower to fit a M2C brace..!!! ???
Yep, that's the broken drill inside the hole..........?

My kids beat up my base shoe and baseboards whacking the vacuum into them so a freshening was desperately needed. Spent two days sanding, priming, filling, sanding, priming, and top coating baseboards doors and columns. Usually I just cut in free hand, but tried painters tape this time. I'm breaking the house into sections, my knee's cant take more than two days at a time.

@Chris Lane ... Looks good, are you knee'ly done..???

Pulled all the diffs on my son's Outcast 6S tonight.. Went with the standardish recipe of 500k centre and 60k front and rear. We took it down for a maiden run at the local skate park. Xmas day is about the only day it is super quiet there.
Managed to also wipe out the whole rear end of his Sakura XI. I was doing some 3S speed runs and it lost traction and slid backwards. So naturally I hit the brakes.....but it didn't brake.... it engaged reverse.... straight into a gum tree. Tomorrow mornings job will be to swap parts off my broken XI onto his and then order replacement parts.

I'll be doing some soldering tonight

 

[Notorious J]

Soooooo, while fixing that wire, I decided to do a front end overhaul on the Noto. Had to make a new hole for the front brace where it meets the top plate cause the screw broke of completely. Cleaned all the parts, new screws where they were to worn, cleaned and oiled all the bearings (steering post ones too) cleaned the HR hubs, and installed new RPM front arms (upper and lower. Also opened the motor, and cleaned it and the bearings.

Where did you get the stock?

 

[Lefty_Al]

Installed this badboy into my Granite BLX - didnt solve the sliding but definitely feels more direct now

https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B07GJ6ZCVY/

lets see how they perform over time

I put the 35KGg version in an Outcast 6S. Has had a few 6S runs and crashes and has held up well so far.

Where did you get the stock?

Just used some random metal seller on Ebay, remember I'm in the UK though..?

I wasn't sure if it was real titanium though at first, but it passed the magnet test...??

 

[Notorious J]

Put the Talion shocks on the Typhon 3s, change the front bearings and one steering block, and threw the street tires back on until i sort out the broken stock wheels.
