| New TRX 4 build thread
Hi all, as requested I will start my build thread. Unfortunately I do not have the truck yet as it is on order with LHS but I do have some of the parts I have ordered on line, I will update as I go. Gmade wheels, hyrax tyres brass portal parts (some covers must still be in the post), servo horn, door hinges, fuel filler, light guards, nicer handles and screws, wheel hexes (longer and will be filed down as required) Below are the carbon fibre battery skids mounts and the centralhardware mounting plate for radio gear and servos. GMade wheels are excellent parts except in the finish of the paint which was chipped and had some swarf or something under it at some points. However the fitting screws, adaptor tool and studs really are nice. Made a mistake and didn't realise you needed a big transformer for this particular charger so that's on order) Last edited by niro750; 09-22-2018 at 07:49 AM. |

Do you have any old computer power supplies laying around? Or unused Xbox power supplies? You could use that for 12v DC for the battery charger. |

Congrats on a TRX-4! Great trucks. One of the most fun scale crawlers for sure. The tire and wheel combo looks great! Those portal weights are extremely heavy - too heavy IMO. You will definitely have to add some weight to the rear in order to get the truck to dowhill with any consistency. |

I'll post the last of the pictures I have, I have quite a busy schedule with work etc... So I find it hard to keep updating threads and taking pics etc... http://i1084.photobucket.com/albums/j412/Dougie_Todd/Mobile%20Uploads/Radio%20controlled/20181121_235240_zpsr1vzvczn.jpg[/IMG] |
