Got my cars back yesterday after school! Started rebuilding the mini B. Local track is doing Losi Mini B/T and other off road classes every other Saturday at noon. Hopefully I can go down tomorrow. But we will see.
My uncle dremeled out the stripped screws for the rear gear case / rear pivots. He says I need a new chassis. And I agree as the rear clip of the chassis is holding on by a thread, and the chassis is super thin. Good thing that the chassis came back in stock a couple weeks ago from Losi.
Started rebuilding the rear pivots, gear case, transmission. Also got the chassis side rails on. Next I put the spur, slipper, then motor/pinion in. Had trouble finding the motor screws but I found them.
That was all for last night. Today afterschool and tonight. And maybe tomorrow morning if I wake up early, I will do the front clip and the servo. I got a new Hot Racing Servo saver, looks like with the 3D printed mounts I have, and with that new servo saver, I should be able to get full left and full right out of the car.
Since I only had 3 RadioLink receivers, I took the receiver out of the slash since it is broken and will be for the next couple weeks.
When building the rear suspension. I noticed that the shock tower had a crack in it where the screw goes through, and the area where the screw goes through the transmission case, it is almost stripped out. So I just used the electric screw driver to get it in there.
Didn't take a pic of the underside of the chassis, I will when I get home.

More on this. I need a MIP grub screw for the axle, and I need new slipper clutch pads. Thinking about the Hot Racing Anodized ones. I could just share parts with the rustler, but it is just too time consuming.I took the receiver out of the slash since it is broken and will be for the next couple weeks.
