hi everyone,
ok, been a while since i last posted and i have made some progress on the build.
First up, i got a CF wing vinyl from Upgrade RC for my OFNA HD wing, and it looks awesome, also got some RCM decals and JConcepts decals. I redid the front lights and grill on the body because i got sick of the stock stickers, (10 points if you can guess what lights they are) and on the right side it now says JCONCEPTSilluzion instead of illuzionJCONCEPTS. if you look at the past body pics you'll know what i mean. Anyways...
the wing
the lights, went for the 'angry eyelids' look
ok, now to the centre differential. I recieved my 1527 adapter plate and kyosho spurs from Mike, (thanks alot Mike!!, top notch stuff) and could get the first stages of the CD happeneing. I cut out a mounting plate for the diff to sit on out of CF, and have a rough idea of how the motor is going to be attached. Unfortunately i can't make much more progress until the motor arrives as i need that to mock up the exact placement of the CD unit and motor mount. Here are some pics:
mounting plate, you can see i botched up some holes and had to make them a little bigger, can't be seen when its bolted on anyway.
1527 dust cover/adapter plate from Mike
Bottom plate mounted
Have some pics of roughly how i think the CD will be placed, and if you could imagine a motor coming off the pinion and mount, thats about where it will be.
thats about it, now i just really need that motor!! Also good to hear that the MMM's are going alright, maybe a bug here and there, but that should all be sorted by the time i end up getting one
thanks for looking
