Holmes Hobbies TGH Sherpas Only
 

If you have a HH TGH Sherpa build please share it here. Feel free to post any questions about your builds as well. Hoping to consolidate some info and builds for these ground up flat rail projects.

Re: Holmes Hobbies TGH Sherpas Only
 

I'm in the final stages of getting my Sherpa together, just waiting on the driveshafts from SS. The MIP's from my Capra was too short for the 12.5" WB.

Re: Holmes Hobbies TGH Sherpas Only
 

Awesome! Glad to hear you pulled the trigger and have the build underway. Looking forward to see it.

Re: Holmes Hobbies TGH Sherpas Only
 

Hoping to get a sherpa expert chassis kit with no od for Xmas. I already have capra axles mini br and a magnum 16t waiting. Servo options are tekin t440 or savox 2290.

Not sure on od because I may run an ar44 axle in front and the capra axle out back.

Looking great "thumbsup"

Re: Holmes Hobbies TGH Sherpas Only
 

Thanks!! Now all I need is some time off of work and the weather to cooperate!

Re: Holmes Hobbies TGH Sherpas Only
 

Love it. Mean and ready for business. Excited for you to drive it and hear your thoughts.

Re: Holmes Hobbies TGH Sherpas Only
 

Chassis was finally available, should be here this weekend hopefully.

That said what and how Body’s and Mounts ???? I’m open now!


Hang up and Drive

Re: Holmes Hobbies TGH Sherpas Only
 

As for the body, way too many options!! I have the KNK mounts on my Sherpa and the GSpeed mounts on my V3 and like them much better than the KNK's.

Re: Holmes Hobbies TGH Sherpas Only
 

The KNK mounts are what I’ve been using, they’re functional but can get loose and start to lean. I had 3D printed some braces that help firm them up and they’ve been working well since.

The latest gspeed mounts look really nice too, I’ll be using those for a future v3 build but I don’t know if they’ll work on a Sherpa.

Congrats on the new chassis kit Mike! Great choice.

I like those "new" versions!! Mine are the versions that use the body clip for the body post.

Well a fun day today, Broke Bea down
And dropped links, axles and shocks in to get a roller, albeit a short 11.5” WB for now until my proper links arrive . Did need a long panhard bar, so dropped it on to the SSD axles and mounted the revolver up with a 10t, waiting on my spur and shaft to get this rolling. I will 3D print a ESC mount and Battery tray. Now I’ve got to find a bumper for the rear, as a Werty stinger fits perfectly.
