I was wondering if anybody has tried the Novak BL in their car? Also will it fit with no problems. I went their site and so a picture of a team driver with it in a Calandra car without the fan on it. If someone does have one installed could you post a picture of it.


Heres the link to the pic of Terry Rott's 12th scale with the GTB:

While I surfing the old post, I found these photos, CRC's prototype front. Anyone know if CRC going to produce it? or it just another canned proto?

Going to have to tweak the front as well as the rear with that design :weird:

Now that is trick, I hope they do produce that. It is a pain in the arse to have to true up all the molded AE lower arms.

Is there anyway that a couple of you guys can post some pics of your cars, I'm haveing a hard time trying to figure a good way to configure all of my electronics where it would look clean.

Or if you guys know of any sites I can go to where they have a good selection of 1/12th scales with the bodys off.

Thanks

I have a carpet knife and need some front axles. Will the associated ones fit? Does anyone know the part number? i bought the car 2nd hand and don't have a manual for it.

Thanks
Terry

could ne1 explain to me what possible advantages there are in using "in line" front axels on my 1/12th car ??

I see there are a few people advertising them but am unsure what difference putting them on my car would make ??

Thanks in advance

The Carpet Knife uses the Associated front end.
The Stub Axels are #1599
Or look into the CRC Delrin ones #4277. These come with the Blocks and Stub Axels.
Or you can get the CRC #4115 Threaded Stub Axels and eliminate using e-clips.
These don't come with the blocks.

The AE ones will fit, but they use e-clips. Try some Lunsford titanium front axles, they have nuts and are very strong. CRC has both steel and titanium front axles that use nuts as well.

I appears as if the moldings on the pinion end of the motor can (Orion Element 19t) don't allow the motor to sit totally flush against the motor pod so the pinion ends up pulling the spur inline once it gets to about 10-15% drive power.

I'm guessing this will maybe result in odd spur wear patterns lol.

Shouldn't they both be inline to start with/how would this effect (if any) the handling of the car?

The only way I can see to fix it (if it is a problem) is to make sure my next motor has a flat faced can.

*bump*

Thanks guys for posting the pics it gave me some good ideas. I got a question though it looks like a lot of you guys are useing smaller wire running them straight to the cells without any battery bars to solder them too is this right?
