where do you guys get your salpels from,,, online? or at LHS,,,,, im dying to get one,,,
one question though,, can they handle asphalt,, like a 10th scale asphalt track,, indoors
I have ran my scalpel a few times all ready and I am waiting for tires as well. Hope they speed it up because my tires are wearing thin and so is my patience AHAHAHHA.
I just built my scalpel and tested it at the local 1/10 scale carpet track. My first impression - broke the t-bar. does anyone know where i can get a new one? other then this, the car has potential.
check the pics. I was able to fit a full size spektrum receiver in this little car.

11. Vehicle tuning For all, which have few, or no experience with the attitude of such a motor vehicle type, we have here some important fundamental tips for vehicle attitude. TWEAK Important is here the correct sequence of the steps, in order to adjust the Tweak of the SCALPELS correctly. Only so one can adjust and straightforward driving a vehicle which can be controlled easily.
A. Front axle: Adjust with the help of the suspension rebound movement delimitation set-screws the suspension rebound movement in such a way that the front wheels have for instance 0°Grad fall.
b. Guarantee that the initial stress in the spring is on the left and on the right about alike.
C. Place now the rear chassis lower surface on one approx. 10mm to high parallel article. Lower now the front axle slowly. Make sure that both front wheels at the same time the soil affect. Otherwise, places it the appropriate wheel with the suspension rebound movement check screw after.
D. Examine after attitude the camber of both front wheels again, if this changes to have should.
e. Set now the vehicle to a straight underground and examine you whether the clearance is somewhat alike in front and in the back. Optimally approx. 3-4mm is clearance. Change if necessary the front clearance by means of the wearing parts at the knuckle. You can stop the clearance of the rear axle by means of under of schiedlicher employments at the transmission plates.
f. Examine now the toe-in of the front axle. Optimally for instance 0°Grad is toe-in.
g. Rear axle: Loosen the knurled nuts of the friction disk absorption system, around a low-friction To grant movement of the power Pods. Lift with a screwdriver, or somewhat similar those On and you these leave rear axle again careful to soil. During this entire procedure those should Front wheels still the soil affect. If the rear wheels affect now at the same time the soil, the power Pod perfectly straight is adjusted. If a rear wheel affects first the soil, this should over the adjusting screws to T-bar to be corrected, until both rear wheels affect the soil at the same time. Vehicle tuning on the distance After you adjusted the Tweak of their correctly SCALPELS, you should first roll out on the distance to dare. Guidance excursion adjust First you should limit right/left guidance excursion in such a way that the vehicle drives with full steering angle during very slow travel left and right curves with turning radius equal in size. A good value is for instance a turning radius of approx. 50cm. Initial stress in the spring at the front wishbones In principle always as much initial stress in the spring should be stopped that in the released condition always the suspension rebound movement Lie close to delimitation set-screws on the slab. Initial stress in the spring at the shock absorber Stop with the knurled nut at the shock absorber the initial stress in the spring in such a way that the chassis seen by the side does not sag, in addition, makes none „embossments “. Friction disk absorption Give something differential fat under both friction disks, in order to achieve an even friction absorption. On very handy, fast distances a higher initial stress in the spring for the friction disks is recommended. On fewer handy One can do to distances without the fat and stop a smaller initial stress in the spring. Tire tip Always use tire bonding agents, if this is permitted on your racing course. Always lubricate the entire surface the rear tire. The front tires should be lubricated depending upon mixture and pavement grip of the distance only maximally up to the half (internal half of the tire). Let the bonding agent at least 10-20 minutes influence. Wipe before the travel the tires with a clean cloth drying. If your SCALPEL should be too aggressive on the steering element, it is advisable to moisten the tire flank of the front tires with second adhesive. This reduces the front axle grasp and makes the vehicle on difficult distance conditions (Carpet condition) more easily controllably. If the front tires drive off themselves conical after a while, you should adjust somewhat more fall. The front axle is optimally adjusted, if the front tires drive off themselves perfectly cylindrically. Much fun when screwing!
This is the best translation yet! Can someone explain to me what they are referring too. it makes reading the whole document worth it.

Robitronic is saying the standard tires are already available, can someone tell us where to get them.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!
PLEASE
Hey Dune, gonna race that thing anywhere in particular (besides your track)?
ha! ha!, Don't know which car I will run in unlimited yet. Scalpel is getting better with everything I try. I guess it will be determined by the stopwatch at Indy. Unless there is some change in the class definitions. If they are seperated, I will likely run both.
My dad broke his T-plate. He's an R/C vet and we're Ghetto Fabulous Racing, so after a lot of sanding and CA, it's as good as new, at least until we can get another. I'm thinking fiberglass if we cut a new one.
