XB Rebuild Project

[Guest]

I run my vent line through the chassis.

I like to run my cable down through the shroud and in the battery box through a small hole I drilled..

Yeah the wheels are awesome, especially for the price. When you get yours on take a pic I want to see how they took vs the fronts.

Theres some pics in my "my new xb" thread

Very nice and great ideas, I will be doing that with mine. Two questions for you

1. where did you get the metal brass that the vent line is one?

2. where did you get the metal top pieces that are on the gas tank, I never saw those on your website or redcats?

It is a snappy fitting. http://www.davesmotors.com/jj572 It will have to be trimmed down to keep it out of the fuel.

The Rear Top Plate is on there (710009) . 1/2 way down the page http://www.rcpitstop.net/5th-scale-xt-xb-xb-e.html

Oh ok, I have two of those already, what's the best way to trim those down, and thanks for the link to the part, will be adding it to my next order.

A cutoff wheel on the dremmal works good.

I really like my Xq steering servo. I run my XT in sand constantly and hasn't let me down yet. I bought it from dgi racing here on the site. As for you being the only one running them on the site, I found a really detailed comparison video where the guy uses cups with bolts in them to demonstrate how strong the Xq 5040 is. And they'll run on 6.2 or 7.2v which is nice.
