drive shaft too short
I lengthened my stiletto chassis about half a gray spacer with a piece of a coke can, and now my longest awd shaft is too short for it . I was able to lengthen it 1~2 mm by super gluing layers of paper on the end, but it's not gonna be enough. Any suggestions on how to lengthen my drive shaft? Or maybe I can make my own?

Yeah, super glue and paper definitely isn't good, lol. What should I make it out of? I was thinking maybe one of those bamboo skewers.

There is a BIC pend drive shaft tutorial on here that you can search for that might give you a few ideas.... I don't think a bamboo skewer would be rigid enough for a driveshaft....

I got me some bamboo skewers and i'll see how that goes (wish they sold them in smaller packs...) I didn't see the bic pen drive shaft tut when I searched, but I guess I needed to search better. Bic pen sounds like a good idea though.
I'll try it if the skewer doesn't work.

Here is the BIC pen tutorial. You should go to the forum section" XMS repair manuel" then look through there....that's where all the tuts are.

I tried the bamboo skewer shaft and I got the length and notch sizes pretty good, but it turns out that notches round off because the bamboo is porous :/
The bic pen one worked nicely though. I used to clean out bic pen inks all the time when I used to make 0.5mm pencil lead shooters, lol. My fets are still fried so I can't test the shaft, but I think it'll be fine for the time being.
