ill need to make a skid plate i guess? I'm going to be using the reefs transmission as its what i have on hand, the tekin roc412 motor, i have a raw 500 servo installed on the axles waiting for the rest of the build but thats as far as I've gotten on it.
next week I'm going to work on the course some more, I'm going to try to make the lines a little more obvious rather than just the meandering trail it is,

Which one is the easiest fix? Might get you more motivated, if you can cross one off the to do list.
The other option is to fix whichever one you use the most or want to use first.
DON'T BE LIKE DOOM! That guy is so lazy, I'm surprised he can even order stuff.
 
SCX6 bearings sounds the most fun to me. I love a good break down, detail clean and bearing replacement session.

Your a sick man! 🤣

Stop taking things for a swim would be a preventative maintenance thing.

if i had warbys sonic cleaner id problly want to a little more but i think this is probly going to be the starting point,I've already replaced the axle bearings, most of the works done i just dont want to take the wheels off for the 14th time lolol but i need to
 
there's only 1 thing to do in that situation. take them all apart at once and walk away for 3 months.

I get like this sometimes. My biggest thing is ill tear it down then lose motivation and it will be in pieces for some time.

If you brought tge scx6 I would have helped swap bearings in exchange for a test drive. 😁🫡

THIS is why I try to stick to only one kind of car. I have 5 Optima Mids taken apart on my bench but if I look quickly, it only looks like one or 2 max! 😉

Good point. But he with the most toys wins.
