Micro FJ40 Scaler

[nigelpheron]

One of the best builders in the micro world. Keep it up. We want sum videos tho! Of the whole course! Make them long!

What?? Now I'm walking around like the "Wiz". again.

Shovel is done, and also did the smallest braze I've ever done. The bolt is a stock micro crawler one:

my vote for coolest micro scaler!

Well thank you very much. Some more minor details to come. When I get some time to do it.

Awesome build, do you know if that fingertech esc could properly operate a 180 sized motor? I've got a project I've been planing and in the past I have had trouble finding an esc that works with a 180

You have been PM'd

Got her eyes done, wee water-transfer decals, floated in epoxy resin. I just have to make a cool video of it now.

That thing turned out beautiful. It really makes me wanna start my own. But I don't think if would ever be that perfect.

Go ahead and start one. they are great fun, and challenging because of the size. As for perfect, that's all a point of view...

How did You make the course? it is absolutely astonishing. I have recently made my own out of Styrofoam covered in paper mache, it turned out looking like garbage, but like I said yours is great.

1rst, 2nd, and even 3rd attemps to make something from scratch, usually don't turn out as expected. Satisfactory results come from continuous practice. Keep making landscapes, and soon you will acheive what you are aiming for.

Here is a link to it's fab work:

How'd I miss this? This is one of the most amazing micro builds I've ever seen. Lights, winch and the motors are perfect speed for the scale. That is an amazing build ! My hat goes off to you !

I just started my first micro build this week. I hope mine turns out 1/2 as nice as this one. Wow, just wow....very nice work! "thumbsup"

 

[Hammer!]

that is such an awesome scaler, i reckon its more scale than most 1:10 scalers, and its a damn lot cooler than most!
