i think pointed tips are better but that looks ok. im betting its just a rebadged weller anyway.

that looks like it will work fine for ya. the biggest thing to any quality job is a cleaned and tinned tip
I just like the bigger one bc it lets me touch and go, but thats just me I am kinda impatient on some things lol

how did you guys do the rear diff mods? i either have hardened steel out drives or something but i tried going to a bunch of mechanic shops to try to get them to drill it but it hasn't been working... can anyone tell me how to do this/??

nitro evader rear diff...

i saw some people on the other evader forum drilled holes in their outdrive cups through the diff gear and lock the rearend with screws, but i can't seem to drill through the diff cups

Thanks

i used the hobbico 60w posted above works well just gotta keep up with cleaning it

as far as locking the diff, i did it, i used epoxy, and i ended up epoxy-ing the nut to the bolt so i can't get it apart a dremeled the diff gear out but that nut is stuck on there.... i've also heard of people doing the same with CA, and boiling it apart... never heard of bolting it tho i suppose if you were to drill thru the flat side, you may want to give it a good wack with a center punch to get a spot for the bit to sit so it doesn't want to wander... or just really cranking on the diff gets it pretty locked...

they were using the ball diff, but they drilled 2 holes to lock the diff cups from rotating in opposite directions

I went mudding and u could not see an inch of my body that was not filled with mud.
I wish I could post pics but I don't know how with my phone.

drilling them would be hard, maybe cutting a notch with a dremel could be do able... but i havn't heard of anything of this sorts, but if you do try this and or get some more info and i'm working on an evader info site that'd i'd gladly post that up on...

as for getting pics off your phone, if you have an SD card, you can pop that into an SD reader most new laptops have um built in, or you can send um as a text message to your email (if you have that option)

a conversation got a little heated in another thread so i started a poll http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/m_99...tm.htm#9996192
despite this being an evader thread, be honest if you prefer something different.

MC - Thanks for the links. You need to post some pics of your new toy. I know this is an Evader thread but I think we would all enjoy some good pics of the Thunder Tiger Sparrow Hawk. Also I watch the two new videos you have up and I just really want one(buggie).

@airmayle.

For the few that know me. I am a rc addict so the wife says.
But the sparrowhawks got my attention months ago and have researched it to death as I do most rc cars. You can never have enough info

Like any rtr car they have somethings that can be improved but for the dollar vs quality they are right there with the HPI or Associated. That includes the 2wd phoenix models also.

Krazy Chicken
