Man....such a sweet looking rig. It does suck that the shaft broke.

Thanks, I tried to do a nice job on this buggy!

I will have the shaft welded up tomorrow and all should be ok when he turns is back to 5mm. Plus with the 5mm shaft it should not do this again! Hopefully!

I can't wait until Mike starts selling the diffs with the integrated slipper, that wil realy take some stress off the motor shaft!

Somewhat of an update. The lhs finally has my pinions, so I will pick them up tomorrow. I will have to mod the motor mount to get the motor closer to the center so that the mesh will be good.

Otherwise everything else seems to be working fine. I ran a full pack thru it and it was ridiculous, a bit too fast for my bashing area. Got decent runtime and the temps were ok, would like to see them slightly lower, so the 11t pinion will most likely be the best bet.

I also picked up another hyper 7, this one has the pivot ball front suspension. It also has the complete rcproducts design kit, with the trays, motor mount, etc. I have a 8xl and a mtroniks truck esc to try out in it. That may be for sale soon, how knows.

I will post pics and info when I get everything back together, hope I have time tomorrow.

The RCP conversion for the Hyper is actually very nice. I like the balance of saddle packs and if you wanted to get crazy you have room to dump some big lipos in. I like the way you flipped the motor, that makes sense. if you can't scare up any dif gaskets, drop me a line. I could toss some in an envelope. I am sure I have a few kicking around. what's a buck for an envelope... Weight is not always a bad thing, especially when you make contact with another buggy hehe

I picked up an Xray, and a Jammin tonight to play with next. I won't count the Ofna Ultra in the box, it's a tank that will be sold as a parts car to someone lol.
