Project Insanity Build

[Snook Man]

If this doesn’t hold the tires to the rims you’re not cleaning the tire/wheel correctly before mounting them or not using enough glue.

I thought this was just a gimmick until I tried it for myself and it is much better then standard ca glues.

Bringing this back from the dead by suggestion

 

[WoodiE]

I figured since i am going to be putting alot more power through this rig than usual considering the powerplant, it was time to upgrade the plastic drive shafts and cvds

What did you use to dye the chassis black?

What did you use to dye the chassis black?

Rit Clothing dye, i had to buy one of those aluminum catering trays so i could have the entire chaissis submerged

 

[revo_rob_1984]

[hulkmaxx]

[Nitrotrout]

INSANITY V1.2

Very nice sounds like a beast. If you have more trouble with the tires falling off try E6000 afew guys swear by it for use with large scale rc wheels including fg monster truck.

The diffs there's a very nice mod out there but it looks like a make or break. Using losi lst diffs inside the revo bulk heads. You have to mill out the bulks tho so the lst diff seats nice. I want to do it but dont think ill be able to if I'm honest. But I do have a new bulk head so I can try with the old one I remove. Mayb putting wanted ads out for broken bulkheads would be an idea too I will now lol. It will also mean you can use losi cvds which look beefy. Plus with the new lst petrol coming soon parts will be plentyful.

and yet another upgrade to insanity. The Tor-x Chassis brace

 

[Nitrotrout]

Cool man, I just bought one of those for my Summit, I haven't installed mine yet.

 

[Jacks9930]

What benifits aye you getting from it? I have been thinking about puttinh one on my revo.

 

[revo_rob_1984]

i literally just installed it today, but it is to strengthen up the rear of the chassis considering the huge ear that the rear bulkhead is attached too, and it is inherently weak for that reason
