I am frantically trying to build my 8x8x8... Im sure it wont be done... or if it is , it will be hackerific... actually anything I build will be hackerific compared to most of the talent here.


and according to the weather right now...it looks like if there is any rain... it will be just in the morning... and be clear before the afternoon


YAAAHOOOOO

nope... itll be a nylint special (currently the only RC stuff I know about).... super build for under 120 bucks!!

the Woonsocket Walmart has 3rd/4th gen nylints for 35 bucks... I couldnt pass up an opportunity like this.

this is what I am baseing it off of.

It wont by sunday....but I hope to have it partially mocked up to maybe test it a Lincoln woods.... no cover.. It looks like there will be a lot of talent there to be able to give me (the man who has just gotten back into RC after 20 yrs of not using one) some pointer of what will work and what wont... plus what I can do to maybe make it better...

Whats the problem with the links? If you're using traxxas rod ends, get some 6-32 threaded rod and 3/16" alluminum tubing and your good to go.

for a little extra i could set up the links for you corey. im almost dont with that top priority frame, yours is bent up and cut. now to weld it together. it really only has a days work in it. ive just had every problem a fabricator could have come up the last few days. i tested the scaler today and with some fine tuning i think youll be very impressed if possible plan on coming up friday when you can get a ride so we can mock it up.

S-Dog, weather.com has the same forecast for all of the north east, what does the local weatherman have to say about the weekend?
