Dinky R/C Tim Cameron "Show time"

[blakeski]

back from my honeymoon! and time to spend some time with my scalers lol!

stopped and picked up a set of black steelies today as well as an axial interier kit..


just had to throw one on for a teaser shot.. im thinking i will paint the hubs red.. make it closer to the 1:1 rig


lmk what you think

[blakeski]

heres an actual update, i got the wheels weight and tires on... mounted them up and painted the hubs bright red to macth the 1:1 better, i know the wheels arnt spot on but i think they look great at afar

lmk what ya think


twist!

[Bulldog]

They look good from San Diego...but I'd think with a Chassis like this, it deserves some beadlocks to match the buggy. If the money is all dried up, at least get some rings and glue them on!

[FlightInstrukta]

Just my opinion here, but the iroks seem too big for the scale of the chassis? It makes it seem tall and short, not long and low like most southern buggys? I think some good ol' proline TSL-SX's would be right at home on there, and maybe give it a lower more aggressive stance? Again, just my opinion, but it looks awesome either way!!!

yea wheels and rings would be great but money it tight and I won't be able to tell at 10mph Lol

And I'm going to get some tsls for it..these are really tall and I wanted to feel the compound...and I still just need the parts to arrive to really start getting after this thing...

Shorter shocks would help the stance. Right now it does look like it's sitting quite tall.

x2 lower it about a half inch

there lies an issue guys.. the way the chassis was built it has to be sprung like that... i tried the big bores(100mm) before the shock cap mod(110mm) and the suspension didnt cycle.. there was no up travel at all and the flex was maybe 3 inches...

[rcmedic]

Could you give out some specs on it (width, length, etc) for us that want to try to duplicate it.

[FATBOYrs10]

i know this is sorta an old thread, and that OG owner no longer has it, but i'm just curious-was there ever an interior built for it? and if so are there any pics?

[FATBOYrs10]

Congrats! I passed that one up a while back and wondered who would end up with it. As for a scale interior...Don't plan on it! Yes it's possible, but you'll kill yourself trying to do it. The buggy has no room for anything to move. You can work around the tranny like I did on mine, or you can relocate the tranny and motor to the front and use a transfer case down on the skid. It's going to be delicate work and you give up one thing for another. Either keep posting here, or start up a new thread. I'd love to see where it goes. I almost hit the paypal button, but held off. It's an amazing rig for sure.
