Rummy's Savage E-5SC

Finally got around to fitting the hub on! Hub on the XL axle with pin through both.



O-ring on the hub to hold pin in place and then with the wheel mounted.





Gave the machinist the go ahead on producing more so I'm getting anxious to see a full set in use!

Looks very clean. This is what HPI should have designed, even for 17mm wheels, in the first place!

Looks very impressive to say the least. Well done. How hard was the HPI stub axle to drill? Did you have to use a special bit to do the job? Last question. Would you consider making the same thing but in 17mm version for us that are still running 1/8th size? Would be very nice if you did it with similar off set as the stock XL setup has.
