I'm cleaning my garage this weekend to get my RC workstation setup and finish some truck builds and build some ramps. Real life always comes in and shuts down my RC parade...

Finally got out my HPI Vorza Flux Buggy that I bought months ago and said I wouldn't open until I paid off a credit card...



I tried mounting my action camera on my Mad Force the other day, shaky. Got the new Slash size body mounted on it though finally.

Got some new Defiance Racing links to mount up on my Powers Chassis when I get some studs in.

Real life has kept me pretty busy (and mostly out of the hobby) for a while, but I'll be working on a few projects over the winter.

Been working on this ECD R I bought from the RCMT classifieds. Almost finished now, have a Parma Spider Man Body on the way.

Started on my snow plow today for my homemade Clod. I'm pretty happy with how it's coming along. Still need to figure out where to mount the servo and work on a few more things. I have a theme in mind for this truck too that is going to require a clear windshield and an interior.

Really like it a lot. Has an old school look to it..

Figured out a way to mount the servo, I used a bicycle brake cable guided through the bumper to lift the plow. It works well, just need to make a stronger servo mount. I'll be stripping and painting the body soon as well as the plow. Need some snow now!

was working on converting my cc01 into a drift car...

messed with links and driveshafts to get it to fit an old clod body, but decided to try to get it to work with this body instead...












went to a local hobby shop just to see if there was a chance they'd have a grill for the body i wanted to use, but found this instead...















so i put the cc-01 back to stock, and in the process of building the xv-01...

I like the creativity on the servo mount solution....as far as the snow is concerned....nawww...you can simulate with sand or something, can't you?? don't need any of that white stuff...lol

Yeah, no snow, no problem. I tested it out in the living room, pushing around the kids' toys. It works great, but the servo is not quite strong enough. It's just a cheap EXI with something like 130 oz of torque. I'll have to get something a little stronger.

What GMADE Truck do you have? I have an old Stealth and love it, it's massive. Not sure of they have what you need, but check out JUNFAC for GMADE Parts:

http://www.junfac.com/
i've tried ebay, amazon and even the junfac website. they dont have what i'm looking for.
I own the axles that came on the spider or dragoon.
all hope looks like its lost.
what does the current solid axle monster community sway to when it comes to custom rig?
i'd love to get the gmade back up and running, but if i have to evolve it once more, than so be it.
