As i've said before, it's nothing like being ready for anything. So I picked up a 2 piece parts tool box. One section for Redcat, and the other for Losi. Already started to fill them with parts, so when something breaks I can fix and keep on running. No more time to wait for parts.LOL 5u6u2e9y.jpg yzata5e9.jpg usamy2am.jpg

Not sure how its possible to break the same exact part once yesterday, and twice today. Every mishap has ended with a broken right side wheel knuckle. Now that I've exhausted my stock its back to the hobby shop. Only to find out that he only has aluminium, at $50 for the set. Is it really worth it?

Ever tried machining your parts out of a billet Aluminum?

If i were you, id take the plastic and go to a nearby shop, ask them to custom mashine you some basic parts.

Would take them 2-3 days. In my opinion it would be a good investment.

That's a good idea, just need to find a place near me that does that.

Thanks
