199 - Random Updates


 At this point my Delta Ray buggy is finished, only velcro tape to fix the body and the hole for its antenna pipe are needed. I can't wait to drive it, to feel how it handles and to understand if the choosen motor will be fine or not.

With the mind free my mumbling have been focused on two "quick" projects: refurbishing my Stadium Blitzer and reparing my Wild One that has its differential broken during 2021 holidays.

To be honest my Blitzer will turn in a Beetle using a Kamtec lexan body, its powerplant will be updated with a Robitronic Speedstar 2 ESC and its motor swapped with a more powerfull, its steel pinion is ready already one and, of course, it will gain a new chassis.


Concering my Wild One, tired to wait the differential gears ordered in april from the UK, I've dismantled the whole car to swap the ABS chassis with the aluminum one available on the Bay: it looks as a nice upgrade, the car looks more similar to a Kyosho, guess it will be more durable without a real performace improvement.



During the build of the chassis I've swapped all the original screws with Tamiyas just to avoid an excommunication from Shizuoka.

I'm also planning to pack the new differential gears in the same way I did with the one of my Brat years ago, just to keep the 23T motor that make this car so funny to drive.

I'm also realizing that I'm guilty neglegting my blog and it depends mainly by the habit to post my RC pics on Instagram, chasing some "like" but not talking about RC cars... it's all limited to hastags without a real sharing of kwonldege, it could sound a bit nerdy but I prefer to be more old schoold than mainstream.
