Hello everyone. Introduction: An avid modeler for 22+ years, mostly airplanes, but I've been known to party hard with cars too. Professional industry experience includes employment history with Hitec, as well as having a number of airplane sponsors over the years, and working in and out of various hobby shops in between industry jobs. Currently employed in the hobby industry. Introduction over.
Managed to miss the Fireteam sale so bought a 6S Kraton instead. I plan on bashing, destroying, upgrading, and repeating this process until I have a rig I am either bored with or can't upgrade any further.
The VERY first day out, I managed to break the plastic upper rear hinge pin block- I'm about as ginger with my trucks as Kevin Talbot is with his so this was expected. EXB hinge pin block ordered. My hobby shop experience also tells me the plastic center diff is prone to issue in our environment here given we run on a LOT of rocks of various sizes- the rocks get wedged inside and basically cut the diff to shreds. Aluminum Arrma center diff also ordered. These parts will be here today so I will install these today.
