Seasonal rebuild for my Baja 5b!

[MonsterAir]

I hope you plan on getting a new fuel tank grommet. That bolt is so half assed. I got rid of the FF Snappy kit and ordered a new tank for mine.

Second idle heat cycle is complete ? now she will go back to sleep for a few months , and then it's time to Partyyy ????

So just did a mockup with the wheels, looks killer. And I got the shocks setup perfect for me. Last year the rear was setup great (carrying that same setup into this year) but the front was too soft and was all around poop. So now , I've got 40wt in the front , 37.5 in the rear and it's nice n plush

carbon fiber

That would be great but I need something I can cut with like scissors or snips or summin. Can't cut cf cleanly like that
Edit: found some lexan , gunna use that ? super cheap so when it gets destroyed again it will be easy and cheap to remake

Plastic mesh, the kraken ones are perfect

Aaaand motors out again . Needed to check the killswitch wiring . Also it helps to have it out when working on the rig, as there is so much more that needs to be done. I'll never get tired of looking at this motor ?

as for the killswitch. I found a few loose connections, the wires were definitely connected but slightly loose. So I'm hoping that's was the cause.

Yep, they were half on the coil so I pushed them down and crimped them a little bit. I'm surprised I missed that. Guess I was too excited lol
