Ya, he is a very lazy cat...his motto "Do what you want with me, just dont forgett to feed me."

I ordered a Lipo charger, dont know when it should get here. I ordered it off of amainhobbies.com. Hope it gets here before the camping trip.

Took an attempt to do the beadlocks and failed. Started to take the rings off but could not get the tire off. Then I remeber someone saying they are fake and they are actually glued on.
Here I am starting to get them off.

Here I am relizing they are glued on.


Losi was sly and fooled me. I might order some Boggers and put the aluminum beadlocks on them instead.

Can't see photobucket pics at work. So you got some beadlocks too huh? Nice! For the stock wheels, toss them in the freezer for a couple hours and the glue will become brittle and break easily.

Ya, that was very nice. I dont know why he did that but it was cool. I have not been able to drive it at all. It is sitting there with its cool and fun looks. I thought you ordered your beadlocks already?

ordered, but have not received them yet. should possibly be here today?

I have tried the freezer thing, and i personally have left them in the for 6+ hours in the past with little success.. Everyone seems to get different results from this, but its worth a try

I would leave them in there for 2-3 hours at least and give it a try.. Make sure to do 1 tire at a time (leave the others in the freezer until ready to do that wheel), because they warm up to room temp quickly.


Edit: you should said you needed a stock motor, i have one sitting here im not going to use and coulda sent it with the servo.. bummer.

My plan is to get the plastic model kit of a '78 Dodge and replicating my dad's trail truck. That's all I got for a plans right now. I may get a brushless system.

EDIT: This is a picture of me in front on my dad's Dodge(no making fun of me, it was very cold).
Keep in mind a brushless woul mean a new speedcontrol and reciever also.

Its an rc18b by team associated. It does not run, I think it needs a new motor and reciever. I can get the motor but the reciever is like 50 bucks!

My cats are too lazy/old to do any running around. Haha. Thats why I am able to put the truck on him because he is old and has no energy to do any thing about it, plus I dont think he cares in the first place.

well I ordered it yesterday, so if it will be a week it will be next tuesday and we will be on our camping trip. So probably no pictures of it at camping.

I also MIGHT have a change of plans. I may change the plan of the Dodge. I may be getting a toyota body from someone on here. But I dont know.

It's been awhile since I've bought anything from Amainhobbies. I think it took about a week for my parts.
