From this , to that ! Power Wagon !
 

So i want to try a build thread(already built and put together, lol) So give or take about 12 years ago i got into RC, all cuz one day i was watching Monster Jam , i wanted a monster truck, bought a stampede, loved it , got my wife a ruslter , years later got the 2010 Slash 4x4 PE , loved it, then i said i want to slow down, so i did and started to buy all (most) my parts off eBay, long story short(sorry pic heavy) i started with a redcat and axail front rear axles then

Re: From this , to that ! Power Wagon !
 

My gears are fine but my housing, a nice lil crack , no wonder why the gears were making a noise, all cuz of that crack.

Re: From this , to that ! Power Wagon !
 

That would make a bit of noise.

Re: From this , to that ! Power Wagon !
 

I wouldn't think that would happen, make the gears sound like that. I learned something new everyday. Really sounded like the gears were stripped , but nope, they are not .

Re: From this , to that ! Power Wagon !
 

Saw your rig out there at by the fire. Was very nice, well done. I had the flat green military power wagon.

So everything is done, apparently my Hot Racing steering link is bent a lil, http://fs5.directupload.net/images/180531/dpi58z45.jpg http://fs5.directupload.net/images/180531/bavb9qro.jpg http://fs5.directupload.net/images/180531/rytuzcep.jpg
Is this steering link( https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?m...2F401116002875 ) a good replacement, or is there something different ?

Re: From this , to that ! Power Wagon !
 

So first i like to say these are beefy !
http://fs5.directupload.net/images/180610/s99ytk7a.jpg http://fs1.directupload.net/images/180610/uw674urq.jpg


These steeeing links compared to my Hot Racing links, can't compare,these have a very strong feel to them, they feel well made
http://fs1.directupload.net/images/180610/sgpxrj7h.jpg http://fs5.directupload.net/images/180610/e2u5b5iq.jpg


Now to test them out. I like them, I cannot compare them to any other SS links(first set) .

Re: From this , to that ! Power Wagon !
 

So the previous bumper that i had originally did not match up with the bumper mount, so i bought a SSD-RC front bumper for the scx10ii(of course y'all knew that already,lol) pics of it on.

Was crawlin around until i started to smell something, didn't think nothing of it new motor less than 20 hours into give or take , going up a rock, it stopped, smoke started to come out. DEAD MOTOR..... my HH silver can 21t 550 died, that sucks. Now time for a new motor.

Thanks for looking.

Re: From this , to that ! Power Wagon !
 

Got my new stuff in yesterday and today, HH torquemaster 27t 550 motor with one of the eBay trannys.

So just gonna run the 48p pinion and spur since they came with it, just to see how that holds up, or if i like it or not....lol

That HH motor, QUUUIET ! Compared to the silver can ,DAMN, what a difference, glad i bought that motor. Thanks Holmes Hobbies.

Thanks for lookin !

Re: From this , to that ! Power Wagon !
 

Nice!

Yeah its hard to express how a Holmes motor feels, you just have to...... well feel it. They have such a beautiful mechanical sound to them along with being quiet.

Re: From this , to that ! Power Wagon !
 

Yeah i know, huh ? its cool that Holmes puts that much love into his motors.... !



I got a CMS for the servo, i like the look of the servo being on the chassis. 8 bucks for it on eBay , hey, why not.
