  • In this episode I try to fix a major part of my RC car's suspension with JB Weld, the tried and tested epoxy I've never been let down by. With a rated 4000psi of strength can it withstand the forces a modern and fast RC buggy can produce on impact. We will see!

    I take all mine to skate parks for a bashing. Drive shafts pop out and occasionally sub plates need bending back. Soooo much fun!

    I imagine you will start getting upgraded parts soon just keep in mind when bashing them hard some thing has to give so make the weakest point the cheapest point

    Hey there, I'm pretty sure those parts are called Up Rights. I used to bust them all the time on my 1/5 HPI Baja T SC. You should be able to find aftermarket metal uprights. T6 Aluminium. Take care I really enjoy all your videos!!

    Hi andy you always provide great videos. But theres one that I struggle to find I think other people would be interested in this to so my question is could you make a video showing how to charge your ebike battery to say 80 percent. With no expensive charger. I wonder if a cheep boosts buck converter set to say 40v for a 36v battery would do the job can you charge at 40v instead of the normal 42v . I'm sure the people in the no. No this would sound obvious but I think to others like myself dont no . Iv got to the point where I set a timer for my ebike every 30 minutes I check the state of charge and unplug it when it gets to around 80 percent. There must be an easier way? Please please could you help

      @yodab.at1746 2 года назад +1

      I've read in endless sphere forums that some buy a second charger, remove the lid and reduce the voltage using the voltage adjuster pot. It means having 2 chargers, one for full charge and balancing and one to just go to 80%.

    Take my word for it, a 3d printer won't print that part and have it hold up at all too much abuse mate. It has nothing to do with your design skills but more how the printer lays down the material, it'll be strong in 2 directions but NOT in the others, a 3d printer is a really good bit of kit, I own one and print loads of things when doing prototyping. They are really good for that and is where they shine. Unfortunately, thin high stress parts is not one of them.....

    I have a Karcher RC3000 robot vac that decided upon a transition down the stairs about 5 years ago and was in a sorry state at the bottom as it also crashed into a door... JB Weld to the rescue and plenty of it! It is still going strong today (couple of NiMH packs later) - although I did use mesh in the JB Weld behind some of the joints for extra strength...

    Fixing them is as fun as thrashing them. Get a good collection of uprights and driveshafts! Need to see some big air dude! I could almost get my Tmaxx into low earth orbit. Nice to see what the 3D printer can do - But I have doubts as to if it will be tough enough.
