TLT kid, you must have sent the PM right after the change over. I didn't have time to turn my PM's on. Send me another, but if you are in need of a chassis, there will be extras that I am ordering anyhow. Jakhammer, haven't seen your "payments" yet, but I imagine when they do show up, I won't be able to just skip over it. The machine shop order is going out on tuesday. Just transfering the paypal funds and some of my own into my "business account" lol. |

Ok, so long as I get my paypal funds transfered in today (tuesday) the order to the machine shop will officially go out. Then its t-minus about a month before you all get your chassis' In the meanwhile, I want to track down all part numbers needed for the pede tranny, and if it costs alot, maybe contact traxxas about getting a large number of built to order pede trannies. Also, the word is, the emaxx tranny will fit into the chassis, but thats not a direct bolt in, so no guarantees on that one. Maybe ronbeck can throw a picture up of how tight of a fit it is. |

Man, you guys are killing me! The E-Maxx chassis will work with a custom bracket to mount it. I have a "top secret" project truck planned for this chassis based on an E-Maxx tranny. The cats out of the bag that the E-Maxx tranny fits, so I will post my planned build up: TSC-10 chassis E-Maxx tranny built up with UE, RRP, Kipster, and Traxxas upgraded internals and GMAxx motor mount Kyosho TF axles with RC Alloys lockers and soon to be released 4-link mounts REVO driveshafts Either AE, BB, or Savage shocks. I'm leaning towards Savage shocks due to required length, but I don't know if I'll find springs that are soft enough. Jumbo Kongs on narrowed wheels or LSTs on Maximizer beadlocks Either a T600 or 55T motor on dual packs Hmmm... Did I miss anything? Oh yeah, custom high clearance links to stretch the WB to work with the REVO shafts. Not sure what that final distance will be since I don't have the chassis and tranny yet!

Ahem.... the cat wasn't out of the bag, but you sure let it out. No one with a truck other than the TLT has ordered that I know of.... Edit that post and keep it secret a while longer...

I have an odd feeling he wanted to let the cat out of the bag, I reckon the secret was eating him from the inside. Sounds sweet though Brian, I didn't know specifics about your build but I guess I do now. | |

It's all good, I let you and Peter know last week that I needed to post the project before anybody else posted the idea. I really don't think it's exclusively my idea anyway, you and Peter have shared a ton of feedback and pics. I plan to build it because I think it will be cool as hell. I wanted to post it to encourage others to think about your chassis as a basis for a truely competition level truck. I plan to start a project thread in the GC section and direct them to you if they managed to miss the other thread in the GC forum. Besides, we're all still waiting on our chassis. Peter did send the prototype back, right? I'll be ordering the parts late this week for the tranny and TF axles will be next week. I have the AE shocks already. I'll probably be waiting on RC Alloys to get the 4-link mount released. It will be mocked up with carbon arrow shafts for the links until I have the high clearance link design finalized and milled. Still lining up a couple of small finish details as well. Last edited by BoilermakerFan; 01-25-2005 at 10:08 PM. | |

The specifics weren't finallized until RC Alloys posted his test mule with the 4-link adapter and said that he would make it a production part. I may still waffle back to the X-Factor axles, but I like the look of the TF/MF axles. There are still a couple of small details I'm posting until I get the truck built and finished. | |

Yeah... I bought some wheels/tires for my venom mini, that I have never seen on any mini anywhere, and they look SWEET! I want to post pics, but I don't want anyone to get the idea... Paypal still has to transfer some funds to my debit card, the second that happens, the order gets sent off. |

Can I get a pee pee yellow star, or perhaps a doo doo brown star? Brian has me utterly jealous with that wicked green one. BTW, never tell a secret to Peter, he likes talking more then the women on "The View". |

Ok guys, in keeping with the new vendor rules of RCC, I will no longe be posting TSC-10 related info in my posts. I will create a post in the vendor's market forum for TSC-10 related subjects. I also will be changing my signature with updates, and it will contain the link to the vendor thread. That will be later tonight after the machine shop order goes out. Checking, double checking, triple checking making sure I don't screw something up.
