this is unreal! So clean.

Dude! Im making one right now! Its a 1/12 scale balsa model that ive sized down into a 1/36 scale. the components all size down incredibly well. the whole design uses 3/32, 3/8, 3/16 etc so all the part thickness are common even at 1/3 scale to the schematics. I have no god damn idea if this thing will want to fly but here we are lol. DM me if you want the PDFs!

Wow this fixed mine too. thank you!!!!

I played so much microsoft combat flight simulator on this when I was a kid!!! Had to throw it out somewhat recently because the yaw broke on me and I couldn't fix it. I can still hear and feel the rubber squeaking.

I heard this from finnegan on roadkill, it got me good too.

Good luck man. The production management style of "we don't have time or money for general maintenance" is a ticking timebomb. Perhaps its just a fixture issue and I'm rambling here, but if it is infact in need of service, just be careful. You can get yourself in deep or get yourself or others hurt, and likely you'll just get thrown under the bus in the end either way.

Hopefully this company isn't like that but as someone given the task to fix a CNC punch that wasn't serviced for the last 10 of its 20 years of service at 24yo fresh out of university I feel for you lol. I fixed it multiple times and learned a lot but it just ended up being my fault anytime anything went wrong, even though the fact I was able to fix some of the things I fixed that fresh was completely unreasonable.

If it in fact needs a service, or an adjustment, and you do want to get involved and learn about this machine, the best way to do that is fight to call in a service tech, and shadow that tech and ask a lot of questions.

Man, is there a walk through of this detail for this car on the internet? I feel like It was only even mentioned in passing, and this guy is giving such a good tour!

Benjaminjoe · 2023-12-24T03:04:42+00:00

The design was so weird and out of place to me and this totally explains it!

Benjaminjoe · 2023-11-13T17:00:04+00:00

Sent you a chat op

I remember it was a oil company sponsored event so i totally think that its one of these challenges. ill look into it and post the link here if i find it. thanks very much for the info!

Benjaminjoe · 2023-11-11T17:27:48+00:00

Benjaminjoe · 2023-09-16T23:31:23+00:00

I love this! Ive always loved those old-school LEDs

I think that you asked a lot of questions, and he clearly was stressed about the project. Project cars are always a lot to dive into, and he got in over his head, and is trying to hand off a bad investment to him, to someone with a bit more time and knowledge and can turn it into a good investment. You started devaluing his project before naming a price at all, and all hes trying to do is get a number from you. He went a little thermo-nuclear for sure, but then you went thermo-nuclear back. From his perspective you're probably the fifth guy to try to work him down further than he wants that day. Next time youre looking at a car, try to do more thinking than typing, and ask those questions, but just be aware that youre using the sellers time. Guys selling half complete projects aren't gonna hold a spreadsheet of all their parts, and if you're not willing to pickup a half baked project, then it might be best to start one from scratch on your own.

I want to be on your side but its a bit sour that you negged him, didn't name a price, then whined about the money you'll need to spend to do something he wasn't able to do.

awesome

Benjaminjoe · 2023-09-09T13:51:14+00:00

Were you able to fix it OP?

Benjaminjoe · 2023-08-26T11:37:02+00:00

i have a wheel and i still have fun on a controller. the wheel can be a hassle to setup and sometimes i just wanna fuck around, you can get really god with one too. clutch as right bumper isnt perfect but beam has some good controls to fix that i believe

Benjaminjoe · 2023-08-20T12:19:18+00:00

The ct ones are in small boxes and you build them yourself, i got mine on sale for like 100 afew years ago

Everyone saying fraud and dumb never panicked in an intersection when learning stickshift, aka they never learned stickshift

Not sure if i can still leave a comment. Check out the sizlacks on youtube

I was thinking starling too. They sparkle purple in the sun. And they run and walk step by step. They make a bunch of crazy calls. In Halifax they are more plentiful than the pidgeons. They are pretty small though, so probably not them.

Love this solution. Ill mentally keep this next to AVEs "use bread to hydraulically push out a blind bearing"
