Default RC18R = R14 Conversion

YeS!.. im almost done with my project car after 1 month of building this car

ordering parts online like crazy and good thing i order all the parts right!

i dont even know shit about this car when i was building it so i had to write

everything i need in a piece of paper and started from scratch i spent around

300$ cause i thought its gonna be cheaper if i do it that way

but it ended up way more expensive than i thought but ohh.. wells

hope the car is worth working and buying the parts for it.



tell me what you think about the car =)

The car looks good though I do see a few parts that you don't need.

really?? what are they? i should've asked you first b4 i got all those parts

btw do you have any extra axle pins for the wheels?

and 1 more question about the 3racing wheel and the hub i bought from

atomic mods, how come the hub from atomic doesnt fit on the 3racing??

does the 3racing wheel different than the associated wheels

the sizing of the hub??

as shown on the picture-

I personally would have skipped the aluminum hubs and even the aluminum dogbones in the rear but that's just me.

Use the 3Racing hub with the 3Racing wheels. The hub that you have is for 1/10th scale sized wheels. The offroad 1/18th scales use those.

Very nice.

I am definitely watching IIGQ4U info as I know you have a wicked setup without the unnecessary bling that we might be tempted to buy.


I may end up with an rc18, I'll hit you up IIGQ4U if I do for help.
