I felt like saying thanks to everyone who has ever contributed in one way or another to building Fiona.

So..... (insert awkward pause here) Thanks!

Figured out a couple of things. The popping and skipping in the axle was a shattered locker bearing. I completely rebuilt the axle. I even shot a coat of black on it.





I even found some time to replace the wheel hardware with some Locked UP RC scale hardware.

Simple reasoning. The plastic slides better over the rocks.

Thanks y'all. All moved in to the new casa, still have a ton of unpacking to do yet. Moving sucks. But the new house is great. It's in a nice, quiet, and mature neighborhood.
