Default First new project - Titan.

Well i decided to do another xmod project after getting my mini-z stuff, there just not as fun

~ PLANS FOR THE BUILD ~

- GPM Fr + Rr Knuckles
- GPM Fr + Rr Wheel Shafts
- GPM 5 Spoke Wheels
- GPM Fr + Rr Mixed Material Gears + Centre Shaft Gears
- GPM Front Skid Plate
- Off Road Upgrade
- Carbon Fibre/Fiber Centre Shaft
- Kyosho / RV Project PCB
- Tamiya Torque Tuned Motor




Anyway, the actual starter kit isnt with me yet, but some of the the parts have turned up, so i will start my gallery and update it as it turns up!

These are some of the parts i will be using in this build.



And this is my Kyosho PCB i may be fitting to it, but most likely i will be using the RV project 4WD PCB that is on its way.

did you buy the composite gears or delrin? Just a quick note of reference, DONT BUY THE COMPOSITE GEARS, i have used composite gears for my bevel gears before and they tend to explode or break into pieces when put under any higher amount of pressure. Buy delrin, its stronger and self lubricating

its happen to others, you should have seen them though lol one was broken in half and the other was like in 10 peices. When they say "mixed material" they just mean a ton of random pieces of scrap plastic pressurized together than melted. Makes me think of a hotdog lol
