Looks like they have some character there. Nice pics. :thumbs-up:

Some of the nicest people I’ve met. Whole family runs rc. Huge into crawling. Got a indoor 1/10 and 1/24 crawl course almost 10’ tall on the back wall. And a huge outside crawl track/mountain/course. Plus a sweet dirt track to boot.

She got a traxxas light pro module, rock lights, light bar that actually looks like it came with the truck, and had to add another layer of foam in the tires, we’re to soft. Glue the mirror glass back in, put one mirror unit back on the truck, and tidied some wires.

Now for some stickers, a couple tweaks in the programming, some diff shimming and she’s done and I can start the next project.
 
I spent the morning setting up a Flysky GT5 with the Ryft electronics. Got the shift working good. She's ready to assemble now. Can't wait. But I originally tried binding two different receivers for my GT3B with no luck, so kinda worried my GT3B is acting up.
 
Got Olivia all tuned and out back together. Hopefully final test today. Diffs we’re good. Plays in the portals. So I loaded them up with some fast eddys trans grease. Got most of it out. Good as it’s getting unless I want to switch over to trx4 axles.
 
Wrenched on the hobby room today. Place was destroyed from the last 2 projects. Now we’re clean again and can start all over!

Awesome work space! If you lean on the arms of your office chair, be careful. I had that same chair at home and work, the pot metal arms snapped on both of them. The one at work was funny, there was a loud pop and next thing I knew I was looking at the floor! 🤣

Lmfao. Arm bolt fell out last night, then I fell out. Already threw some thread locker on it and put it back together.
 
Finally had enough energy to put away the Christmas stuff and clean up the sitting/family/living/rc storage room too. First time since surgery in November.

Ran out of wall room upstairs. Overflow goes in this room.

Digging the speakers! Klipsch has awesome stuff!


I did some work last night while re-watching SOA. Replaced the broken chassis brace and bumper mounts on my xmaxx. The bumper mounts were impressively bent lol. Gotta order some shock towers too, since they're a little jacked up.

That's awesome man. Bet they got their money's worth in memories at least 😉

Good job dad.
 
Finished up the phoenix today. Pretty tuck.
