Didn’t last long

[markaagent]

Well it didn’t last long pretty solid hit and some good damage hit an island in the parking lot full bore over 60 for sure

Looks like the chassis broke where the battery clips in,

The whole driver side front suspension is gonzo,

The gearing case is cracked
And that’s just at first glance
I am pretty handy with these thing but may have to take this one Into a shop for repair it’s gnarly

Well that sucks! I nailed a concrete pillar on a light post in a parking lot before with my 6s Typhon, mangled a few parts too.

Umm...About that....Don't hit solid objects.

Even though it looks bad, it's fixable. I've done worse that that. Believe it or not. Don't take it to a shop. Repair it yourself. Save some money and learn about your RC at the same time.

Wish I had a repair genie. I'd bash a lot harder. Fix that while I beat the snot out of this one.

Sure it's a big hassle all this, but I remember having a lot of fun repairing nitro rc even of modeling friends. This is also part of our hobby.

Looks like it's gonna cost an arrma and a leg.

Heres a better plan, fix it yourself and use the money saved on another battery, or a set of tires. A shop will empty your wallet over any sort of repairs.

 

[Tunedfrog]

Honestly I would repair it myself. Taking it to a shop would be cutting into the half the fun of RC.

Just box it up, send it to me, I'll repair it and then let you know how much it'll cost for me to send it back.

Easy-Peasy!!

Hey everyone!
We’re almost done!
New chassis
And motor mount
Rear suspension mounted
Electronics almost installed I hit a roadblock with the “servo arm” was a bit confused at first than realized there’s a silver screw drop in pin type thing that holds the mount for the servo arm on passenger side (mouthful) so I need one of those but don’t know what it’s called and can’t find it anywhere I’ve attached a photo of it on the driver side
Help lol

 

[markaagent]

Got lucky found the old one!

 

[Saladshooter]

Great work. you will be up and running soon.... there really isn't much that isn't fixable with some determination in our hobby.
