...as you can see the CD is now direct mounted to the baseplate, same as a regular pan chassis...the Kyosho 46t spur is small enough that i dont need to make a hole for it to sit in...
...The motorplate has another chassis brace at the top, which isnt fitted in the pictures, and it all sits nicely between the tvp's...It looks like crap but all the measurements work and everything fits with clearence and ZERO binding, in fact i would even say that the drivetrain feels smoother because of it...  ..and So, because the bones I was using have mysteriously VANISHED, i had to mock up a slightly longer version...LONG XL in the rear and a long SavX in the front...which is actually DOES look much better...so Generis gets his wish of more length lol...  |

Nice build, I will keep an eye on this!
We build two centerdiff savages so far, working on a third... they are definitely a different kind of monster. I like 'em with the batteries inside the TVPs. The Hellfire stuff conversion is a great idea BitHead, looks good with the wing! Keep it up! |

 Seriously, I never had problems with tires getting unbeaded... but I never use pre-glued wheels... always clean the tires with alcohol or other solvents, scuff the bead on the rim, and carefully glue them with the stronges CA glue you can find. Love the Proline glue, btw. Good Luck Daf |

I just ended up with PL glue because I knew that is what Mike stocks. He's my one-stop RC dealer
Any good CA glue should work, I used stuff from the crafts store with great success too. Very important to clean the tires when you buy them. They come with some kind of no-stick agent on them. |

those gluing tricks are totally true. Makes the bead last forever after...
The spur is another story.... |
