New vid !!

It was cold outside (again...) but I couldn't resist

Broken parts :
- Rear bumper mount
- Body
- Tool box

And no stripped spur gear thanks to the HPP bracket

What is the HPP bracket? Nice vid by the way!

New look !!

I needed new lipo packs (and therefore a new chassis) so I decided to change the look of my ERBE as well ! Here is the result :

What's new !

- Turnigy 5000mAh 2s 20C hardcase lipo packs
- Black died chassis/rockers
- RC Solutions black rollcage
- Home-made rear brace
- FullForce RC carbon pushrods
- HPP motor bracket prototype


I replaced my SMC 6000mAh 2s 28C lipo packs because they lost their power and puffed during charge and discharge. So I decided to test the cheap Turnigy packs :

Black chassis ! Simple, common mod and great result :









I cut and dremel these spots to install my lipo packs :




To protect the wires and to reinforce the chassis/bulk spots I bought a rollcage (4 months to get it due to post office malfunctioning...). Looks really strong and easy to install (don't forget threadlock). I raised a bit the body so that it doesn't rub too much against the rollcage :

I had bought FullForce RC pushrods a long time ago. Traxxas optional pushrods are great, I just wanted to test the carbon ones They are really lighter ! Carbon pushrods vs Traxxas (desanodized) tubes :




I found some liquid tape to cover the worn motor wires (finally !), excellent product :






Here are some close pics :
