Looks like a nice place to play. Good job on putting it together, and I'm glad VP sent out replacements for you. Appears to have been an isolated incident.

| Re: Vanquish VS4-10 Origin Limited Build/Thoughts Issues Thats correct. All components that come from Taiwan are re-checked when they arrive. We do final packaging here in Sacramento before they go out to customers/shops. Quote:
It really is an impressive undertaking for two factories to work together seamlessly and bring a product of this nature to market. We always appreciate the positive feedback | |

Any chance you'd care to share anticipated annual volume for this model from your business case? Understood if not, just curious what the market is supporting for such an elite example within the hobby. | |

Not having any idea when my backordered Q-series lights will ship, I installed 10mm LEDs in the interim. And 5mm LEDs in the rear.

Excellent thread and build! Love the color choice, that copper looks great. I’m having issues with my rear axle assembly, the front one went together like a breeze. Great fit and action everywhere. The rear one is very tight when I try and drop the gear assembly in. I’ve redone it a handful of times and still get a tight fit that causes binding. Everything spins freely outside of the housing but I can’t tell if it’s an issue with the housing or if perhaps one of the bearing carriers are slightly off. Either way, I’ve reached out to VP and hope for an easy resolution. |

At some point, should this be moved to: "Scale Rigs Brand Specific Tech" ? |

Interior update. It's mostly there. First serious attempt at an interior, and also first time using shapeways, so definitely learning a few things. The paint on the door panels should be the same color as the pain on the lexan, but isn't, I guess due to the texture on the 3D printed parts? I like chrome paint pens... Used flat clear over the seats and am pretty happy with those. Ryan Gosling agreed to be the Driver (true story). He is almost certainly too tall for the Origin however. I have the Knight Custom gauge parts and LEDs for it, but am pretty unsure how to make that look right (i.e. how to make gauge faces such that just the correct parts will light up). I also made an unfortunate choice for the ESC position, so the wires interfere with the passenger footwell. Have a bit of work to do before I can fit this for real.

Now with infinitely more DIG! No changes required to the driveshaft, so that was a pleasant surprise. I'm using a 138 oz high-speed servo, so roughly in-line with Harley's recommendations. It's surprising to me how much it can flex the servo mount if trying to engage the dogs when they aren't aligned. Neither the instructions or Harley's installation video suggested any lubrication, and I'm concerned about sand getting stuck inside it, so I initially left it dry. In this configuration the dogs usually get jammed against each other, which allows it to function fine (4wd, dig both work, but only through friction, the dogs aren't actually engaging one another) but leaves the servo straining, so I was concerned about burning it up. I'm guessing this may get better after some break-in. However it finally occurred to me that there are other types of lube besides grease/oil , so I tried a PFTE dry-lube spray on it, which seemed to help. Hoping to get it out on the rocks this afternoon! |
