Bobby’s hybrid hack job🤣

[misterleon]

Rear shocks and wheels are on. Everything is spinning freely through the ful suspension movement Bought the Galante straps bought need to return them for the losi set because I’m not running Baja rear shocks

 

[John Parks]

Dang, moving along.

I just hit a major milestone. everything besides the body/cage and engine has been ordered. next week I will do a final test fit on all the parts and disassemble everything and send everything over to rep for anodizing. from here on most money will be going towards paying off the engine until i figure out what I want to do with the body. I'm leaning towards just going with an unbreakable but I'm open to suggestions.

edit: also made the decision to go with the rcmax 46 so that i can leave the upgrade path to the 65 in the future.

@Rep732 are you actually anodizing parts for his build

 

[misterleon]

Does the wj71 only have an inlet and no return? I need to install the breather and wondering if I can just take out the return on the fuel tank and stick it in there.

What servo you going with?

 

[misterleon]

What servo you going with?

Something from hitec I guess

 

[John Parks]

Something from hitec I guess

I have a large hitec standard servo here. Brand new, it's larger than a typical 1/8 scale but not a 1/5. Has like 600-700 oz of torque

 

[misterleon]

Finally found the rear bumper braces at Bartolone. Those things are as rare as gold. Got it all mounted up and the realized I have to take it apart to mount it to the baja bumper . Oh well

 

[misterleon]

Blah blah blah more work done

 

[misterleon]

Body and cage are in the mail. Will have a proper roller by the end of the week then I start paying off this engine

 

[Jshaff16]
