Re: WPL C14
 

It got a little tricky. On each side of the transfer case is an m3 bolt where I bolted the battery tray to the floor pan. I had to drill a hole to do this but there is a support/standoff on the other side it makes up in. This stiffened it up a lot. Once it all is squared away I think I’ll two part epoxy this individual pieces as a single unibody.

I still need to thread and attach the upper links, fab a steering link, wire the motor and ESC, and then it’ll be ready. LOL. It’s so cute. If there was only a reasonably good source of axles for this scale.

Re: WPL C14
 

I may have missed this, but are those 1.55" wheels you're running?

Re: WPL C14
 

Yes. And the tires from my Yeti Jr.

Re: WPL C14
 

While waiting on my m2 and an m2.5 die as well as some 2.5mm stainless rod to arrive, I figured I’d go ahead and superglue the links. LOL. It worked well on my micro Fungi Goat.

Re: WPL C14
 

I'm finding attaching the links difficult but mostly because I don't have the proper hardware. I'm using the slickrock as my donor car and a lot of it's hardware screwed into a plastic frame/chassis so I don't have the nuts to fit on the hardware I have. It also came with a wacky 3 link suspension setup made of molded plastic that's way too wide for the WPL frame. it's looking like I might have to mod more and think further outside of the box than I was planning to. that's kind of the fun part of all this though. I'm going with slickrock shocks too though so angles are going to be crazy. I think I'm going to have to fab up a plate like those ones they have for the scx-10s to become mud trucks/monster trucks.

Re: WPL C14
 

I bought some GPM shocks for the Mini-T. Springs are a bit stiff, but size seems to be ok:
Attachment 369464

My kit came with an extra motor, which is a few millimetres longer than the mounted one:
Attachment 369465

N20 motor with punisher shaft vs. stock drivetrain:
Attachment 369466

Re: WPL C14
 

Lean those shocks over to about a 45* angle and see how it sits.

Re: WPL C14
 

Is that a1/10 transfer case?

Re: WPL C14
 

Mine is and has 5mm output shafts.

Re: WPL C14
 

Crappy video. LOL. It’s slow.

Re: WPL C14
 

This makes me want to get to work on mine so bad but I have 3 broken ribs and it hurts me to sit at my work bench. Cool little rig

Re: WPL C14
 

Wow, you know their quality control is a mess when some kits are getting extra/different motors. :ror: My kit only had the longer motor. I wonder if the kit motor is different than the RTR motor...

Re: WPL C14
 

Im using RedCat Everest 16 axles. I found some pretty decent scale wheels and tires. Just too damn busy with other projects...

Re: WPL C14
 

The only thing that steered me away from the Redcat axles was they are all the same front/rear steer.

If you would, count how many turns in to turns out those are?

Re: WPL C14
 

I dont understand. You want the gear ratio? what do you mean turns in - out?

Re: WPL C14
 

The gear ratio or turns. Either/or doesn’t matter.

Re: WPL C14
 

The axle ratio is 2.8:1

Re: WPL C14
 

Thanks.

Re: WPL C14
 

Got it!! Did a few things.. nothing major..:) here’s a few shots!

The silver touch ups make a lot of difference. I may have to order a second one.
