Re: House’s TiDe Fighter BEEEEEEEEEFFFF TOOOOOOOOOOOBBBBBBSSSSSSS! brake rotors in aluminum beadlocks, scale tires and winches. Watch this bitch blow up! |
Re: House’s TiDe Fighter Well I guess I may need a new name for this thing. I am taking a slight change of direction and I am going to use 7075 cases instead of the 6Al4V I had planned on using, so it won’t be a true Ti-Fighter... I don’t think doing this will degrade it’s build quality and that will open up avenues for a possible other build in the future. Always looking ahead. :ror: |
Re: House’s TiDe Fighter So you're going to whittle new cases from scratch? |
Re: House’s TiDe Fighter Luckily no. SkaldidDog can keep that job! I have a set of SDS aluminum cases to use. "thumbsup" |
Re: House’s TiDe Fighter 1 Attachment(s) A nice baggie of hardware arrived from Oregon... |
Re: House’s TiDe Fighter 1 Attachment(s) Are you guys sick of me polishing parts yet? I know I am! :ror: I hope I am just about done... Ordered up some new electronics. I have always had good luck with FXR’s but decided to give Mini BR’s another shot. The other ones I have are the older revision and get pretty hot. Never died on me but always concerning when the skid damn near burns you picking your car up...! |
Re: House’s TiDe Fighter Shiny is good.. keep on polishing parts. I've been running my original Br-minis since 2013 I won them @ Nationals yes the get warm but never let me down. They actually get hot enough they'll melt holes in my heatsink. |
Re: House’s TiDe Fighter Yes, mine melted through the heat shrink also. Maybe I will stop worrying about them... |
Re: House’s TiDe Fighter 1 Attachment(s) Test fitting some SAF gears in the SDS cases. |
Re: House’s TiDe Fighter Is it done yet? |
Re: House’s TiDe Fighter Patience, grasshopper... :lmao: Got the cases drilled out for the 7mm shafts last night and got a tracking number this morning for the electronics, so that is positive...! |

Re: House’s TiDe Fighter Damn, those turned out really nice!!! So what's next?! |
Re: House’s TiDe Fighter 1 Attachment(s) Quote:
Lots of measuring and small piddly work adjusting link balls, drilling c-hubs, sanding knuckles, loading the weight holders, etc. Motors and esc’s should be here Friday... |
Re: House’s TiDe Fighter Sounds like fun! ;) |
Re: House’s TiDe Fighter 1 Attachment(s) Ready to install some motors... I am going to try the SAF gears first so I can run standard 48P pinions. If I cannot make them work then I will fall back to the metric .6 mod gears... |
Re: House’s TiDe Fighter Wow you put a shine on those! |
