FID Racing Dragon Hammer V2

[Micha-IN]

bought in 2017, sitting 3,5 years and waiting... coming alive in 2021...

Soon, installation of an AliExpress LED Kit:

[DougStar]

nice
Since this it the build log thread....tell us what ya done to it

 

[Micha-IN]

I bought the Victory RC silenced pipe and installed:






hmm... maybe the front shocks need some fenders to save them from stones, shot at them...

3D printed on an Artillery Sidewinder X1 with PETG








The original fuel line was ripped apart and put together in the black tank grommet,
longer fuel line is already ordered.

Also ordered are the 230x85mm wheels and I couldn't resist to ordere the alloy fron A-arms of the Voltz with
the second dampers.



flying gravel could damage your engine fan...

Just curious as I’m not familiar with the dragon hammers (except for drooling over spents’s) but is there not a different way to route the fuel lines? I wouldn’t be to happy with the proximity to the exhaust and sitting on top of it. Nice looking rig, Micha.

yo bizzer , i've looked at the fuel lines many times myself as well,
complete pain in the arse the way they have to run,
but no real way to run em any other way tbh, cant get brass fittings into the tank without butchering the cross brace,
every other way is just too tight for room or don't look/seem right,
all ya can do is run em over the top and zip tie em together but keep a gap between the pipe and lines,

 

[Bizzer]

That’s unfortunate, if it doesn’t cause any problems I guess there’s no worries. Just looked a little sketchy to me being unfamiliar with them.

yeh its fine as long as ya keep a gap and use the DH fuel line springs bizzer ,
i'm interested to see if micha comes up with a different way of routing em though,
then i can copy him if its better

 

[Micha-IN]

it's so close as I accidently cut 3 inches off my last line while installing it. Therefor the aluminium adhesive tape as a little additonal heat shield.

I'm thinking about printing a clip on solution on the cross brace, but still using the monster ball pen springs.

maybe I design a prototype today, weather is rainy and I just cleaned most of the car.

the boxes for receiver and batteries are open(!) and when I ran through a puddle water went in.

snaps on fine, just a bit too close to the pipe

 

[spents]

thats actually a great idea micha ,
are you gonna do a v2 that clears the pipe more ?
or just warm that one up to see if it will bend up a bit

 

[Micha-IN]

clearance... should be 5mm more
3.5h print time on my Artillery Sidewinder X1

 

[Micha-IN]

part is not cleaned, just a quick install of the bracket. I will add some aluminium adhesice tape near the pipe
but I think I have to design it with an wider bow.





hmmm.... I'll do another version

 

[Bizzer]

Nice job!

 

[Micha-IN]

for my actual, too short fuel line, it's okay.

You should have made a ramp and radius going to the fuel line grommet, would have made it a bit more sturdy and given a clean routing look. A+ for ingenuity.

it it just me... it reminds me of a giraffe

Now that you mention it

 

[Micha-IN]

did anybody measure pipe temperatures after high load runs?
the tank is quite close to the pipe...

You can purchase gold foil tape if you are concerned. It has helped my cage from melting from my pipe.
