Those are looking great Ronald. I also need a pair of these.
Do I spot the new body....?
To bad you have to remove a bit of the rear to lower the body even more

Re: Haastnooit's AXR10 2.2s NCD SuDuOne

Yes ... it is the new body ... and you are right Douwe, the sponsorname is probably going to be cut off ... oops sorry ... :oops:

Re: Haastnooit's AXR10 2.2s NCD SuDuOne

Cool thanks :) I see you have the new body :) Got a pic of the whole rig with the body mounted?

Re: Haastnooit's AXR10 2.2s NCD SuDuOne

Nope ... I have not mounted the body yet ...

I am still undecided on how to place electronics, after I got that one figured out I will mount the body ... I can get good progress when my driveshafts get here, I am hoping to lower the E-tray somewhat.

But I got pics of the uncut body just sitting on the rig though .... :mrgreen:

Re: Haastnooit's AXR10 2.2s NCD SuDuOne

Well …. EverettY’s question kept buzzing in my head …. :shock: And made me very curious how the body would sit on the rig. Eventually I couldn’t resist anymore and started work on trimming and mounting the body this afternoon … Specs, pics, chitchat below …

Warning extremely pic heavy !!

The body

Parma Xciter
RockThrasher paint
Gunnar bodymount set
HPI washer M3x6x0.5 mm

I hit up RockTrasher here on the board to paint me up a sweet body for this build … and he really came trough with this one … It is based on a lid he did before, which I really liked ... So it is the same concept, but a little different, I love the pink flames, chrome skulls and carbon look … This is by far the sweetest body I ever owned … Thanks Jason !! "thumbsup"

I always hated those little pins that are normally used to mount a body, I saw the Gunnar bodymounts in severall builds in the past but never could find them for sale. Untill recently Gunnar started to offer them for sale again, I immediately jumped at them and got a #3 comp kit with 3/16” aluminium spacers.

I ordered 3 extra spacers to replace all stock delrin chassis spacers. As to Gunnar’s advice I ordered the spacers 1mm shorter (=49mm) and use some 0.5mm washers between the spacers and CF chassisplates. Here some pics of the bodymounts on the rig …

And finally pics of the body mounted on the car, I did not shorten the mounts yet as bodyheight may have to be altered due to electronics placement ….

Weights:

I always wondered what a painted body weighs, now I finally know … now I am curious how that compares to a cab and full set of bodypanels … ?

Re: Haastnooit's AXR10 2.2s NCD SuDuOne

Very nice :) I love that cut on the XCiter body... Did you keep the NCD Logo part though? :D

Re: Haastnooit's AXR10 2.2s NCD SuDuOne

Very nice body and weight Ronald. Looks to good to scratch :)

At that weight you still need to add electrics and a battery and knuckle weights if required when a runner too dont you?

I still have to swap out my delerin cross braces to alloy myself.

Rig is looking great "thumbsup"

Thanks Everett, I am sorry to say .... I lost it ... I cut the body a little bit at a time, tried to save the NCD logo but couldn't make it work :roll:

Thanks Oz, yes still need to add electronics (+60gr), servo (+65gr), lipo (+46gr), driveshafts (+30gr) and KW (+100gr) ... So I guestimate she will end up at a RTR weight of in around 1711gram ... "thumbsup"

I understand what you are saying, all bodys I ever made/had for my onroads, offroads or crawlers always had a very simple and clean paintjob (kinda like my SA) which is more or less my trademark ... Never so extravagant as this one .... BUT .... I like it .... perhaps I am changing :shock:

Thanks ... glad you like it "thumbsup"

Re: Haastnooit's AXR10 2.2s NCD SuDuOne

Cleanest build i've seen in a while, very very nice Ronald, made any choices on the elec. department yet?

Re: Haastnooit's AXR10 2.2s NCD SuDuOne

Thanks guys, apreciate it "thumbsup" All electronics are allready taken care off, I will use all spares that I have. The servo will probably be a "loaner" though ... I could use one more good servo ... :mrgreen:

[edit] No progress on placement if that is what you meant ...

Re: Haastnooit's AXR10 2.2s NCD SuDuOne

Was never a fan of the Parma xciter, I think I may have changed my mind looks fantastic"thumbsup"

Re: Haastnooit's AXR10 2.2s NCD SuDuOne

Hey nice build very informational I was wondering where do you get the brass threaded inserts?

Thanks, as I am in europe I got the brass inserts (F4/1-B-M3) from Insertsdirect.com on ebay ...

But most common place in US to get them would probably be Mcmaster-Carr ...
