RC4WD Gelande II D110 Truck Kit w/Hard Body build/review



Rpphobby.com parts came in
I just love this rpp store
They're pretty fast in sending your goodies
They dont **** around lol
Thanx rpp :D
 
Those diff covers look nice and shiny......not for long :twisted:

As for RPP, they really don't **** around. True story- I placed an order at like 3pm about a month ago, and it was at my house before dinner the next day. If I need something online, I go there. No point in going anywhere else if they're gunna take more than 2 days.....
 
So HARDRIVE, I'm not sure how often you visit the "Chit-Chat" subforum, but you might've seen my post about my predicament I have on my front garden.

MOCKINGBIRDS!!!!

Jeez I hate these lil b*tches, I have to mow the lawn now so I'm gunna get hit like 35 times within half an hour....



These damn birds dive bomb you like they're on a Kamakazi pilot in WWII..... Locke seriously. They're a total pain in my butt...and the back of my head about 3 times daily.... Grrrr
 
To bad its illegal i think to kill them am i right
I guess these birds are mocking you lol
Put out a bait and catch those suckers
 
$15,000 and 6 months in jail if I kill it.

SIGH...

ITS TRYING TO KILL ME, do you think the regulators of the MBTA will cut me some slack? I "didn't know it was illegal, it was hurting me....."
 
Just had to watch mocking birds on youtube
Those birds really attack arent they lol
They even attacked hawks
I would whacked that thing with a racket or badminton lol

Hell man I had them in the backyard last year and the side yard the year before that.

When they were in the backyard, they stayed in the nest for like 20 days extra (normal incubation time is 12-13 days, normal fledging time is another 12-13 days) and I had to use a baseball bat to intimidate them. So now whenever they see a red softball bat slung over my shoulder they tend to stay, since I got like 2" away from hitting one.....:shock:
 
Awesome. Now get those stainless steel screws ordered and get to work!

I've gotten like 15 RCC emails in the last few minutes because I accidentally subscribed to a bithc fight in the electronics section lol. And I just heard the tri-tone of another email coming in on my email...... Ugh when will they stop?!?!? LMAO
 
I cant work on the differential covers just yet
I want to upgrade the cvds or xvds on this rigs :D
So one time im going to take it apart and re grease everything again

Any way everyone talk about the mips
So i made my own test
On how tough these mips really are



This is an old ofna buggy 1/8scale nitro buggy
Its been under the weather for over 5 years
As you can see its rusted now
Size is 2.0mm :D
Mip put to the test
Its was so damn thight i couldnt turn it with two hands
Use a vice grip to hold the handle of the mip hahahahha

Results screws came off
No damage to the mip hex

I love this mip tools im going to throw away all of my hex drives
Waste money buying anything else mip is the way to go
 
I told you meng. They're strong. Really strong. I'm not surprised it took that bolt out. They're better than you think, whether you need pliers to break the rust on the screw or not :lol:

So I'm pulling the carpet up in my dining room and getting new couches in my living room, and I have the old carpet leaning up against the wall now so I can put it in my attic later since it's still in decent shape, and I realized that it's like the perfect incline test. I cannot wait until I get this new system/batteries.... So tempting....lol
 
Was just browsing through rc4wd
For the xvds and

More steering and stronger than the stock
I guess dont have to change the back axles lol
 
There really isn't a need to switch to cvd/xvd on the rear since the shaft only rotates, there's no knuckle so there's no point on having cvd/xvd shafts, let lone any pivotal point in the shaft, if there was you'd have rear steer and you'd loose torque, or you broke one of your shafts and you'll npy have 3wd lol
 
Also, IIRC the Yota II front axle doesn't have an OCP so you'd need equal length shafts. But I don't know for sure, I've never worked with one IRL... Check with your kit and make sure you are buying the correct shafts.
 
I changed my mind about the cvd or xvds :D
I opened it up and it looks rigid or strong enough
Ill just upgrade it when the need for it arise




Back axle is very disappointing
Its a 2 piece axle
I thought its a 1 piece axle

Im glad i opened them up
No grease inside the axles and trans



I needed a winch and a back bumper
 
And you need to put stickers on it too. I would literally fap to that front end. Gorgeous. Now, go beat the hell out of it on the trails!!

I'm still waiting for these lipos and this new esc/motor. I also found out that if you go into the bathroom at the top of the stairs in my house, you can put stuff on the roof from the window up there. So as soon as I get a battery for my scx10 I'm gunna drive it on the roof for "kicks" and giggles. Normally the mamma birds chill up there too so I can do a little chasing from up there too.

I have this whole plan worked out. Get oovoo or skype for both of my phones, and put my older phone in the cab of the jeep while I'm in a video chat with myself, and I can literally drive my scx10 in FPV in real time. I'll have my digital camera pointed at the roof to watch my stunt, and a second camera to watch my phone to see the FPV. It'll be cool as hell, and I'll post the video on YouTube/vimeo/whatever.

I really need to get out of school....exams are in 5 days. I am done with school next Wednesday at 9:30 am. I'm so pumped.......
