446 - Tamiya BBX: The Brushless Conversion Complete!

With the few time to dedicate to the hobby the brushless conversion of my BBX has taken some weeks and now it is complete.

Setting the thicker cables and the sensor cable have been a nightmare to me. Maybe for some it would souds hilarious but this is my first experience with this technology and I want to understand if more flexible sensor cables are available.

As said, I'm pretty worried after doing a short shake down due to the lack of power of my NiMH packs so, making the best of a bad situation, I've ordered a pair of LiPo packs that, this time, I will take care with the right charging routine.

445 - FlashBack Friday: My Tamiya Cr-01, Part #3

In 2014 my CR-01 started to have a new shape. As usual I surfed the Web looking for some infos about modifieds CR-01 without much fortune. So I've planned a radical modify inspired by some competition crawlers.
