I made some shock wrenches for my Losi mini T 2.0 out of acrylic scraps so I can refill my shocks, they were too tight from the factory and everything else I have tried just deforms the plastic. This center slot fits the top mount and the hex with a slot fits over the rod end without forcing it through.

Very slick!
 
I had to move my battery mounts on my scx6 hancho , and over the last four days , completely exhausted all my efforts and knowledge on my brand new 12s ESC in my new VEKTA5 E , then got fired by KRAKEN for complaining, criticism is a great part of the learning curve , and that's where they are with electronics , but I was fired , pathetic really , but as said before , it's part of the ups n downs of this great hobby , I didn't need there VEKTA5 top heavy remake anyways I geuss
 
going to aluminum C and D blocks with inserts in the sct410 2. Happy to find out the alu blocks with inserts are the same weight as the plastic clad steel oem ones. If anything i would like to add more weight to the rear, was worried the alu blocks would be lighter

I just realized the black marker on the door rubbed off my hand on the inside...... so time to have a weathered lambo with road film.

Like you're not going to naturally weather it in a mud puddle anyway 🤪

But that's easily hidden with some choice decals.

Was hoping for a factory paint job. May put some 1:1 companies on there.

Being my nitro rs4 I will probably avoid everything including dry dirt. If it's on my 1/16 or I buy another touring car I may take it where it should never go. 😇😱

How about a vinyl wrap?
 
Already thinking of it. Was looking on the bay when I tossed 2 more clear lambos into the cart.

These bodies are thin so it should be interesting using a heat gun to wrap it.
Yeah, I have often wondered how well that would go. But there are videos.
