RE: Are these worth it?

yes, those are OK. The only issue you might have with any hub made cheaply is the bearing fitment, but I havent heard of any issues. I had another brand (forget who..been a while) where they werent...

RE: New Inquiry.. last one I promise :). Your input would be helpful

RE: LAST CHANCE TO SPEAK UP if you are interested in custom parts

I'm not doing this to make money, that is the truth. Believe it or not, these rc companies dont make a lot of money as expensive as you think the hobby can be. I can make a prototype, as in working...

RE: LAST CHANCE TO SPEAK UP if you are interested in custom parts

You would like to see a physical prototype, or a drawing/ CAD? With 4 responses, we wont be seeing anything lol. I will see if others on other forums are interested, but I find that this hobby is...

RE: My murdered out Savage XL

LAST CHANCE TO SPEAK UP if you are interested in custom parts

Ok, earlier this week I was asking you guys about TVPs and then I had a better thought. I am thinking about the possibility of totally re-engineering the Savage with a conversion package that will...

Do you prefer XL or X length TVPs? VOTE!

Vote, and please vote for Nitro and Flux (electric) variants. I am NOT doing 4 chassis plate variants I can assure you of that. These are all lower COG plates.

RE: xl steering slop

QUALITY aluminum steering arms, quality bearings, and aluminum knuckles would make it as good as it can be. That with a great servo will get you much better steering feedback. It also has to do...

RE: Gathering interest...

Oh yeah... IF I do end up making any part, keep this in mind. I am = HAMMAN, TechArt, Lorinser, Gemballa etc.. FLM etc = American Racing etc. Just can't compare the two very different approaches. ...

RE: Gathering interest...

No offense to Chronic (or HPI) but I can tell you right away why ANY of these TVP designs can fail. First and foremost, the strongest shape is never a box. If you look at the TVPs from both makers,...

RE: Gathering interest...

Not sure if chronic worked/ ran a machine shop but to get even CLOSE to $45, then I need volume. I can guarantee, the designs I have come up will take ALOT MORE time on the mill than any other TVP I...

If the interest is there.. that goes for all the models, I will not do any one model unless people want it. I know the shorter X chassis accepts more bodies, so that is a consideration. I'll even...

RE: Gathering interest...

Price can be matched by my estimates, it really depends on how many are ordered to offset cost. I am not doing this as a business, it is really just to make even and make the best TVPs available,...
