Looks great but you may want to make a tool box or something scale to hide that RX.
|
yea, been think bout it, maybr just a small lexan on, but see im not gonma use that tx/rx anymore(switching it with my rustler)
so it might be a bit harder, cause its a bit bigger |

update on the battery tray
cut it out not the BEST dremeler out there.. but its not finished.. im gonna smooth out the edges and i need to make it a tiny bit shorter(for wheel clearance) what broke: Xmod Tool Set Cheap X-Acto Knife(just threw it away last night, i jabbed the plastic cause i didnt wanna go down and start demeling in the middle of the night) 2 Disk Tips pix :D http://i326.photobucket.com/albums/k.../scaler013.jpg http://i326.photobucket.com/albums/k.../scaler014.jpg http://i326.photobucket.com/albums/k.../scaler015.jpg C/C/Q are welcome |
update:
I finished the original battery plate, but then thought of a better way to mount it, cause the original way, all the weight would be in the back(which i dont want), i started on a new design pix: http://i326.photobucket.com/albums/k.../scaler021.jpg http://i326.photobucket.com/albums/k.../scaler022.jpg this is the new way it will be mounted, just a new style plate http://i326.photobucket.com/albums/k.../scaler023.jpg http://i326.photobucket.com/albums/k.../scaler024.jpg |
update:
finished, just needs a couple touch-ups, then a quick sanding then to paint :D http://i326.photobucket.com/albums/k.../scaler025.jpg http://i326.photobucket.com/albums/k.../scaler026.jpg http://i326.photobucket.com/albums/k.../scaler027.jpg http://i326.photobucket.com/albums/k.../scaler028.jpg |
I suggest velcro instead of tie wraps. :)
|
Just a quick tip. You may want to switch to velcro straps or cut slots in the tray to mount the zip ties/velcro straps so the battery or zip ties won't move at all. ;)
|
i know, i have one coming in :D :-p, but i do need 1 more strap.. any free ones from any of u guys are appreciated :D
i used zip ties as a small test |
i still need 1 more battery strap, i have 1, here are a couple pix of the antenna mounting(yes the rx is gonna stay there[there wont be a zip tie.. lol im using zipe tires for now, in-case i improve on it later], i found a diff way to mount the battery)

Nice SCX10 Trail Honcho man, are those stock XC1 tires on a pair of J Concepts Rims?
|
Quote:
its not the trail ready honcho its the honcho kit(with the alloy links) i got it used, which is the read reason the front bumper is missing a skid pl8 also the tires are prolinr hammers, they provide awesome grip :D |
since my camera took a dump on me, this is all you guys get for now, til my camera is fixed
