Don't be so generous, I'm sure you could do just as good or better! And I had lots of help from Popoxx and Mark(mkrusdc) as far as the FLM goes.

My racer(and still main beater) got all the super goodies so my FLM truck now is a buddy truck and is not as stellar as it once was.

Silly nitros but still let me know what you think. I race there again soon. As soon as I can find an AMB transponder. Does anyone have one they'd like to sell to me?


I've got some picks and videos coming up so stay tune. Next Vid: Skate park/BMX!
Thanks,
Zack

When I first saw after running a long way over to the truck I thought to myself WHAT DID THE TRUCK GET WRAPPED UP IN!!? I thought I ran over a bag! It was a long way away when it happend and the pinion coming off is what did stopped it.




Thats a big foam! Much bigger than I remembered.



I think they got wet some how and that ruined the tape job. The damage soon insued.

Always amazes me how foams & tyres tend to get ejected inwards rather than outward... usually.

I need a video editor program sooo bad. Somebody reccomend a good one and I'll spend whatever.

Oh yeah and what do you think? The pinion came off as I was getting more daring. This beautiful truck makes single well landed back flip a piece of cake, I was about to put it way out there and try some doubles. Front flips are tramatic, it does rotate and mutates! When you get on the brakes it goes into a mad triple sideways front flip mutation! By shear luck would I land it. I'm going to try it thursday! lol

Have a look at this Zack 'CF parts (vid)'... one of the simplest and neatest tricks for cutting carbon...

Yeah that how I'll do it. I'm buying some very short Nova towers from Chad then I'm going to bolt and space them together to the CF then let the dremel do the rest just like MisterCrash showed us! Great. Oh and of course I'll put wing mount holes in.

I am doing a total rebuild of the truck and I went to open my CCNeu for the first time to inspect the bearing and I found this stuff on the ends of the rotor. Umm look...VVV what is it? Its good right?










Here is what it replaced. Novak HVMAXX rotor.

Its solid. Temps are always under 150. Its been a great performer for a year and a half. Running it at least twice a every week with the exception of a few months where I was really busy or away. It pushes this truck around like a rag doll of course, no surprise. It is the motor of choice since its apperance.

Also how do I remove the bearing on the pinion side?

Zack, I will get those towers out tomorrow...

What exactly are you going to be doing with them, and carbon-fiber...I am confused? Are the UE towers too tall or something?
