Didn't think this post went thru... sorry guys, i was trying to upload these photos in the gallery just now but i guess they didn't go thru.

First, thanks Hop for clearing and welcoming me to your forums, and thanks very much everyone for the kind words. It took a few months to get it to where i want it and some serious cash indeed... but hell, it's worth it! Time to enjoy the ride as they say. :jamout:

The TVP's are from Rob's Innovative-RC. They are 1" , 6mm black anos. The receiver box is a project box from Radio Shack and a quick charge jack also from the Shack. Im almost done with a scheme paint job for all my RC's. I will post some when it's done.

Thanks again guys
Regards

Those tires look even better mounted Zfly. This is vroom from SC by the way. Im liking the way the racer is coming together with all that blue. Looks realy good, keep up the great work man.

The brake setup is awesome, does it work well and who made it?

Thanks guys, much appreciated.

k0m0d067 -I have a few sets of plastics all around so i change when needed when breaking her down for maintenance. Fleks are awesome man..highly recommend -one of the best upgrades ive done. I went thru many different arms for a good solid mount fit w/ LST shocks to get it right for handleling and performance.

4X4 -your welcome man. I'm using Nova's engine plate and CNR's breaks.

Jt - DPP Racing's wing bracket kit is solid, and looks like it belongs there in the first place..that's how good it fits. I don't think you can find anything more solid than his kit...plus for $20 you can't go wrong.

darkside - Innovative-RC is just that, everything Rob makes turns to gold..plus he backs his items 100* His shocks are awesome. -free shipping, fast too... I have his TVP's, Roll bar, LST mounting kit, 23mm hubs/nuts -but im currently using 17mm hubs on this setup. I tell you one thing, I was hectic at first either getting his regular TVP's or extended ones, but im glad i went with the 1", 6mm's. They are a bit pricey but you get what you pay for.

Blazer X - they are Crazy Nut Racing breaks.

Site Jester - I ordered my set from RC Planet as Hop listed.

oregonmud - I would have NEVER guessed who you were dude, lol thanks man. You came a long way for a short period of time. WTG w/your racer.

Cheers guys!! thanks again for all your compliments. If i left anyones question, please feel free and i will be glad to share.
It's a great hobby and keeps me out of trouble, lol.

Peace!:patriotism:

nice shell, really nice

those rims look dangerously offset, has it been ran yet? if so any problems/noticeable stress on the stub axles, bearings and carriers?

Hi guys, here's a few changes and latest updated photos..enjoy!

This is the new NR528-XRA 8 port straight out to rear roto version. Factory date 3/6/07 Modified by the one and only Rick Brake -RB Mods. TKO Ceramic bearings.

It was a tight fit for the roto shaft to reach because of the wheelie bar and wing plate assembled, so i welded (2) Rossi roto shafts for extra length.

that is probly the nicest truck i have ever seen!!!!!Nice job on it! and how do you like the CNR breaks???

04-28-2007, 07:09 PM
I love that truck. It's absolutely sick. Those Flex tek arms top it off. Funny thing is I went over to SC and grabbed those picks gonna build a basher and I like those ideas. Changed up a few things but all in all it's gonna be about the same. All 3 of those bodies you had done rock.

thanks alot guys... i really appreciate your comments.

Savage X - regards to CNR's brakes, they work great! there was slight binding on the discs when i tightend the screws... i took a round mini file and bored out the CF pad holes just enough and took care of it.

Hop - you will absolutely love the arms bro...not only their toughness, but you will get the best steering..(full lock steering) to date, best upgrade ive done for the savage.

Chuck does excellent work on the shells...and is a great guy...he will recommend extra details along with your scheme.

I received some goodies from Eric (HTBatteries) today... he hooked me up with a 7.4v Lipo, 6v regulator w/switch and charge leads, charger, and tossed in a adaptor to fit the cig plug and hook it to my super brain 977 13.5VDC power supply.

What wing/mount are you using? also what shock towers do you have? thanks

zflyzone
04-30-2007, 10:07 PM
Im using DPP Racing savage wing plate kit with Mugen's mounts.

http://www.dppracing.com/Our_Products.html

towers are stock...but, im using DPPs plate kit on both ends...front/rear for better support...plus it holds the battery box solid.
