RCBee's GSpeed V3 Honey Cheater Rig Build

[Honeyman108]

Worked on the Transmission and Motor mounting and finally was able to figure out the forward mount ON THE Trans but had to add 4mm spacers as suggested by TGH to give some clearance to the motor at least with the forward mount! Now the way I had it before without the forward extension it cleared and was lower but the motor is now way forward which is a plus for me but as soon as i get the axles mounted ill see what will and won't work but I hope I can keep the forward extension mount

Missed your question about the skid/trans spacers. Looks like you got it figured out. Looks great all bolted up! Nice and shiny!

Well I wouldn't say I have it all figured out it does look nice but I got back home from a 2 day trip and got the Kimbrough 56t spur and lets see ho it all fits before going to the axles and links Ill BEE in touch soon

[Honeyman108]

Finally go the 56t Spur gear in the mail and I got the spur installed in and had to add a sealed bearing to give enough space to have the spur match up with the pinion, but alas they are aligned perfect! Now the Supershafty Trans recommends a 9t pinion gear and 56t Spur gear and with my brushed motor the 9t was a little loose so I put a 10t pinion and it fits real nice snug and not too tight on the 56t!

Next axles and links

BUZZZZZ........

[Honeyman108]

Working on the axles changing up the bearings and adding some SS screws and some Udder Budder Grease . BUZZZZZZ.....

[Honeyman108]

Long nigh at the bench!

I needed a RC Marathon

Got both steering axles cleaned up and put all new bearings & Udder Budder Grease & installed servos and servo cages!!!

So now to the links and shocks.

BUZZZZZZZZ........

Coming together nicely, the SS axles look very nice.

Also that scissor lift is awesome

Man, them close up shots of the carbon rails look fantastic! The color pops right out! I'm gonna have to upgrade my V3 G-rails to one of them cool colors!

All looking great! A lot of bling on them there axles. I'm liking the look with the Reefs servo guards bolted on!

Yo Mow I wasn't sure if everything was going to fit but everything including the servo cages all bolted up pretty easy and everything looks and works smoothly so far

[Honeyman108]

Links are done for the moment and hopefully this afternoon I can try to bolt everything up after getting the shocks setup

[Honeyman108]

Shocks and Links are done & I moved the TPL Battery tray forward and think it will be pretty out of the way there after I secure it a little better & maybe I can get the chase set up BUZZZZZZ......

[Honeyman108]

Got the Chassis going with the shocks and TGH sliders and the long links on the skid! Tomorrow install the axles and the last 4 links and start the electronics and Body next week BUZZZZZZZ........

The Color Gspeed rails look great on an angle the yellow pops real nice and should go nice with the Punks Customs carbon fiber on the TGH wheels

[Honeyman108]

BUZZZZZ..... Started the set up with the links and I seemed to have reversed the bends so have to go back and figure the links out mainly in my head


Also the forward motor mount on the fancy Supeshafty ss Trans looks like it will get in the way so will probably be dealing with that too! Wish me luck.....
