Xray T4 2020 #1
This is a 2nd hand kit - previous owner built but never run
Installed electronics and completed the wiring over weekend, tested fit the bodyshell from X4, cannot fit. But it seems it can share the old bodyshell from older T4 generation.
The steering servo used this time is a new brand I have never tried, it comes with metal servo hornTuesday, April 28, 2026
ARC A10 23' #2
Electronics wiring done - this time try a new brand from HK - RFX-10 ESC. 160A ESC should be good enough for 17.5T blinky, built in bluetooth which make adjustment easier too. Except the ESC footprint is a bit bigger and need to fit it correctly on the chassis.
Bodyshell also cut and fitted.

Another set of tyres for this weekend
FW05RR has been back to action for 3 weekends ! but tyres diameter has a lot of impact to its speed. First round was satisfied but since there was a malfunction bearing on one of rear hub which caused the tyre to become cone shape, truing down the tyre diameter (down to 60.5mm) has a direct impact to the car mid and top speed performance on 2nd and 3rd weekend.
I was running 35/37 but it is out of stock now, so try 32-40/40 in next meeting.
