Swapped in the 19/55 gearing on the Baja… not a fan of how much grinding I had to do to get the pinion to fit on the clutch bell. Not happy with the final product.

That’s what I get for being cheap… did what I should’ve done from the get go and spent the $90 on a vertigo clutch bell and hardened 19t pinion. Hopefully this cheapie spur gear doesn’t give me too many issue, unlike the pinion, it actually looks and feels like it wasn’t machined with a hammer and chisel.

I need to shred my credit card… šŸ˜‚
Don't worry, if you keep abusing the card, a nice store clerk will shred it for you. ā¤ļøšŸ¤£
 
Do you not have your own Loctite? šŸ¤”
I do. I don't care for wrenching my RC toys. LOL...gonna catch hate for that. My Brother in Law LOVES doing it so he does that and I keep his firearms cleaned, and maintained. I prefer driving them. He prefers just shooting. It works out well.
I have basic knowledge of them, but don't like working on them. That's why I have zero input on build threads.

I love my firearms, hate cleaning them!
 
I took my Vendetta apart again to check gear mesh and the rear diff. Next month i plan to get it to where i can finally run it and hopefully it will hold up and i have a couple of Spektrum receivers on the way to me from @Lostinthewoods86 Thanks so man I'll be sure to test them when they come to me. I also plan to get diff parts for my XO-1 and a new AVC receiver for my Vendetta.
 
Finished up the MST RMX 2.0 chassis. Will grab electronics for it later.

Chassis came in for the upcoming Pinto no-prep build, so I got to digging out some parts I had on-hand to put this together so I can measure some things to design a wheelie bar.

Then I had to put all these damn screws away.

Neat drift car my dad bought a Yokomo YD-2 kit a couple of years ago drove it a couple times but now it sits on the shelf but i might have an idea to get it running again someday. Should a share a pic or two of my dad's old Yokomo YD-2?

Better question. What took you so long to ask? Being an rc place and all. šŸ« šŸ™ƒ Got anything else remote control around the house. TV doesn't count. šŸ˜šŸ¤Ŗ
