Uses the gen1 front and rear suspension/axles. Plenty.

Dunno if it's allowed, non-xmods electronics!

Good to see CowboySiR back in action

[c1v1c]

4. Electronics can be xmod based but can also be aftermarket

Anyways I cant get enough of Cowboysir everytime's he shows up.

[scoter]

[booman]

[wadethejuggalo]

what kind of tires are you using?

[c1v1c]

Took them from a old cheap rc toys.

Man...The drivetrain keep on loosen up, Its too weak.

[texan_idiot25]

what part is loosening?

And what brand superglue?

[c1v1c]

I've tried super glue(dont know wich brand, dont have it here atm) , jb-weld, contact glue, Plastic would only stick on metal for a while only.

I've been fixing it for hours today and now the shfats that connects to the bevel gear is bulletproof but now its were the universal gearbox is connected to.

[texan_idiot25]

Crazy glue is my god.

Maybe try some epoxy?

You might want to try some Gorilla Glue. It is strong as can be, but it is very messy. The stuff sometimes has a mind of it's own.

[Donziikid]

Are you sanding/scruffing up the metal before you try to glue the piece to it? Stupid question, I know, but it's so simple and sometimes forgotten. It seems as if your metal is very, very shiny with very little abrasions. Hit it with some sandpaper to give it something to stick to. Just a thought.

This is turning out very nicely! Good work and glad to see you got a piece of metal instead of plastic holding everything.

I didn't, It was a threaded shaft so i figured out i could screw it in with an additional drop of jb-weld. But i guess it got loosen up.

And yeah i've been looking around my house for a month just to found out that wonderful piece of metal

very creative & unique! love it
