Hey ImBroken,

Where did you pick up the Mugen head?

Hey ImBroken,

Where did you pick up the Mugen head?

I picked up the Mugen head from Will (Hirez) over at RC Pit. You can shoot him an Email via www.Wilzwerx.com, & I'm sure he'll hook you up.

As far as progress goes, I received & installed the servos, mounted the radio/servo tray, & started on the mill.. Here's a few pics.....

As she sits...

Interesting how the lay down servo sits opposite the way the PCR Pro does. Curious how that will work..

 

[ImBroken]

It will still work the same way, the servo horn & servo saver are just mounted towards the outside rather than the inside. Personally, I think it would be better on the inside like the PCR... We'll see.....

I think that it is more prone to getting damaged and ending your day

Wow, another beautiful build. Anyone want photos of the kid next door building a plastic model?

 

[m3guy831]

How much did it all cost in the end ¿?¿?¿?

 

[ImBroken]

I cannot disclose that kind of information in such an open forum, in fear that a significant other may be lurking at some point... lol I'll let you know when I'm done.... :smoke:

Huh? What do you mean?

 

[Mr T-Maxx]

Huh? What do you mean?

Coat = cost

Hey ImBroken,

Did you have to mill out your the front end to get those CVA boots on??? I put the other 4 on, but I'm debating on milling out my front end. It's never easy!!! :depress:

 

[HIREz]

I really can't wait to finish & run this thing... I've went way over budget... lol
Until I see this buggy perform, I'm not going to be totally satisfied with my investment. It will look sweet though... lol I gotta start painting a lid that will do it justice...

Lolz,
Here's a couple pics that might give you some more ideas,, although I already started on the idea you sent over.. *grin* ..
...ewww, never realized how crappy they look through the camera,, guess I'll have to get a photo-guy soon. ***


oh also, I've got one more part that you'll want for that thing, the 0207's for the front end..drop me a line.. haha oh yeah and don't forget your airtronics synthed M8,, one of those are here with your name on it,, oh yeah and that 24k gold plated name-tag.. and that, and , and, and.... *grin*

Thanks,

I decided not to use the boots on the front end... lol I just couldn't bring myself to start milling out my knuckles... I'm using them on everything else.
