These are the standard Tekin 5mm bullets. Amain has this style available from many manufacturers; Reedy, Maclan, Protek, etc.. 🤙


I’ll snap a few pics of them sometime this wknd. I’ve got a ton of stuff going on, but should be able to set aside some time to do a bunch of wiring. I’ve got (3) Tekin RX8 Gen3’s, and Tekin T8 motors to knock out, and I’ll be sure to snap a few pics for ya brothaman. 🤙
Very cool thank you
 
The Corally motor and ESC I ordered for my Asuga roller was delayed by FedEx. I'm impatient by nature, so I decided to take a nearly-new (less than half an hour of runtime) Max8 G2 with 2250kv system out of my Maverick Quantum R and put it into my new Asuga roller. The Asuga is now up and running with the Max8 G2 system; Sincecam 35kg servo (Amazon); and a Radiolink R6FG receiver. I got in a quick test drive in on my asphalt driveway, and the Asuga runs great. I hope to get a few short runs in and tweak the ESC programming before the rains start here in Maryland this coming Monday.
 
Finished the UDR body. Airbrush kept clogging, so the orange looks terrible. I have better Gulf stickers coming. I'm just really disappointed in this one. I may buy another body and try again.
Hard to see flaws in the pictures but I know what you mean about trying again, had to do that myself a couple of times before.

Looks great from here, but I totally know what you mean. I just went through the same thing with a Kraton body..got it perfect on the second attempt.

The orange has dark spots in it. The airbrush kept clogging up, and it wouldn't lay the paint down smooth. I had to mix the blue to get that shade, and I'm happy with that.
 
Gluing a set of replacement tires for the FSR GT ,purchased off Aliexpress.us 25.00 set of 4 I don't mind. Ran out of glue have 1.5 tires to go 😞
And sanding another chassis 1 side done after 2 hours.

Trying to decide how far over -against the corner- I should mount the third support rail and still have it look visually "balanced"..
