A pair of TC for next project

Select one of them to start with next build

ARC A10 23' vs Serpent X20 (released in 2019)
Both are coming with paperless manual - ARC has one paper with QR code on it, X20 has a USB drive.
Opened both boxes and look at the chassis

The ARC chassis has pre-cut edge at bottom face. Something I have not seen for years, last was one of the older Xray T platform when NiMH battery slots were pre-filed.

Masking the bodyshell then decide the color to go ....



Team Infinity IF-14-II Mid #3

Completed front suspension setup and waiting for the rear PRS to continue.

Drive train is very smooth, with effective and easy to balance front anti-roll bar.

Team Infinity IF-14-II Mid #1

While the two TC projects are closed, and the 1/10 2WD truck is on right schedule, I cannot stop but start the next project. IF14-II Mid this time.


First step is gluing the bottom chassis plate, followed by degrease all ball bearings.

Hang on - is it just for ONE TC ? 


The selection of screws and shims and ball bearings require a bit of attention to ensure the right parts are used. 

One evening work post dinner.

The mid pulley setup is a bit comple compared to those Yokomo kits, however, it serves the purpose of the maintenance work and actually it is not over-engineering. The outcome is a solid and easy to maintain mid pulley.

Team Losi 22X AC

A good friend share this kit with me. 
It is a gift from the friend, and I cannot express enough on my appreciation for this.

It is time to open box, in fact, there are two boxes. One is the shipment paper box, and then the actual kit box.


Manual is a book indeed

See how many pages !
