Well, decided to give old Integy another chance here. Picked up some 12mm extended 17mm hex adapters. Looks nice. They feel really light and give me a not-so-solid feeling. Everything bolts on nicely though:









To be honest I only got these as a backup for the Savage 5T axles I'm waiting for. The 5T axles are dropping right in whenever they get here.

Oh, I finally ran into some issues. My pinion will not stay on. I use blue loctite and its been dried for a good time now. Managed to loosen the pinion on my first hard acceleration. I guess I'm going to red loctite tomorrow. Here's the irritating part. I have to remove the motor to change the pinion. To do that I have to take off the CF skidplate. Did that. Loosened the motor mounts. Ok, no space to pull out the motor since the ESC sits behind it. So I go to take off my ESC. No go. The bulkhead plate covers over where the screws are. So now here I am having to take off the whole rear end just to remove a pinion off a motor. I'm sure this TVP design is very sturdy but the trade-off is accessibility.

Call of Duty: Black Ops comes out tonight so I might just put this on hold for awhile. Anybody play?
