Who was wrenching today??? What did you do??

[Pat_ranch]

Yep, she fried.

Big sister works fine, though

I keep coming back to the notion that mamba x's are worth having around...

I can only imagine your parts stash!

 

[Pat_ranch]

Just your normal, run of the mill stuff...

Motors/esc's/servos

6s arrma stuff, NIP for the most part

6s jennys, etc

3s/4s

Micro

1/10 crawler

Soldering stuff

@Pat_ranch. Yeah, buddy. Parts stash, indeed. It's like your own personal hobby shop.

I knew it would be impressive, but if your like me, I'll bet that you can't find something until after you order a new one and then it mysteriously appears.

That's why I have 3 of everything- I can still find what I'm looking for!

Order twice, use once. That's the RC creed. . .

It rained all weekend, so I did more wrenching. The fix it list is shrinking

Dropped a reefs 444 into the mo-jave. End points worked out to an even 60% each way. I find that nicely aesthetic. Hopefully it'll be happy in there. This thing is stupid fun to drive with the road tires!

Replaced the steering assembly in the 6s typhon. I need to get the porsche body painted for this thing and start rallying it.

And swapped out the rx, motor, & esc in trash panda. It's not as nice on the low end, but I need the revolver that was in it for the v3 build. I set it up on the noble, and I gotta say, my first impression of the noble is outstanding!

Finished the garden…finally. Now I’m sitting in garage trying to layout a crawler course…I’m going keep it in 2 pieces. Time for another creative adjustment then we’ll move stuff around…again

Worked on the bronco, adding some brass steering knuckles and some injora steering links.
what up with these course threaded screws on stock steering links? Going to have to drill out hole in servo arm to fit screws that come with the upgraded injora links

Yesterday I worked on the mini b rebuilding it. Everything is still stock but plan to go brushless soon.

I haven't upgraded anything on the Bronco yet, Injora parts are usually a direct fit. Thanks for the heads up. Wonder if they have upgraded sets for the newer models?

 

[Joe crawler]

I installed a injora high clearance chassis links set on the bronco. I also couldn’t resist the temptation to try the mountain I made…looks more like a volcano I might paint to resemble one
Bronco did pretty good on it

 

[Smilinbri]

Replaced servo in RC Blackout SC Pro.

Started adding the Arrma retention clips on my other shells.

Put some Injora rock sliders on the SCX24 Bronco today.

SMT10 Raw Builders Kit got its start today. The two diffs are built and installed in the axle housings. By then it was noon and already 100deg F. Hasty exit into A/C was in order.

Houston is under power conserve until this heat wave breaks. All electronics save this battery op ChromeBook are powered down until 8:00pm.

I drilled the barbie camper into a tree at about 40mph in front of a bunch of RCers at a local meet last weekend at a skatepark. Had a very spectacular wreck with parts flying and everything . I'll get started on it today but the LF hub won't be here for a few more days. It took the hit on the LF wheel and damage isn't that bad. I spent less than $30 to fix the chassis. The body took it's usual beating and will be fine.
