I suppose that is true! More time to let the mind run free.On a 'relax vacation' you sometimes have even more time to tinker and search the internet to read on RC things and to buy than at home.
Nice project BTW, interested to see how it drives!
Enjoy your vacation.
Wheels make me wince every time I shop for them. I was running some Sweep Road Crushers on my FireTeam/Kraton and bent one of the wheels (it was wobbling so bad I thought I bent my axle output shaft, but it was fine). I went to Hobby Heroes to put a new set in my cart and said NOPE, not paying $140 for 4 wheels. I can't believe I paid anywhere near that for the first set I bought.
Yeah dude tires are certainly a painful part of the hobby especially when it comes to street tires lol. Those road crushers are way too expensive for what they are I think. The 1/8 grps are such good tires for such a good price but for any car other than buggies and gt cars they look so goofy.Wheels make me wince every time I shop for them.

Thank you very much!! I love making stuff with carbon sheets and what not. Looking forward to working with the carbon rods and seeing what I can do.
Oh yeah man those would look great especially with the tire writingFor on the shelf I think these would look good. Not sure how they'd hold up to the dual motor setup.

Maybe 23mm Hex's and some 1/5th GRPs would look (and perform?) great.
Yeah I think they would but they are twice the price of 1/8 so I'm not sure if they are twice the worth. But I'm very tempted to give them a try.
Even if only for ROTM/Shelf-Queen status
Yeah I might just have to do it!! I know the old 1/5 wheels were the square hex, any idea if the new ones are as well?Even if only for ROTM/Shelf-Queen status
I believe for that to work ,you would need 1/5 scale diffs ?? Yes it would look dope but on the engineering aspect side , f it would be horrible for the diffs
They are only 118mm tall. I would think that if he gears his pinion/spur down accordingly for the increased diameter it should be OK.
Yeah it should be fine, I would think the only question would be the grip they might have being much wider. But MT street tires are much heavier and even more grip so I don't think it's of any concern
They do still run the square hex, just bash it sells adapters tho
Malta? Shouldn’t they have Arrmas by now? You should have packed an extra bag with a 6s rig and a couple of extra batteries. Blown their minds, man!
