Haven't been up to much lately and I feel bad about it, Work and lack of motivation have contributed to doing very little, but I have been messing with the 3D printer and managed to print some wheels and upgrades for Lunchy#2 and Frankenhopper
These are the suspension upgrades for both giving them double wishbone suspension, All I have to do extra is make some upper arms with rod ends and threaded bar. The Traxxas screw pins are for the suspension. Also printed parts to stop the bar in the gearbox moving which will make it more stable. and no holes or modifications to the chassis either. This is just 1 wheel of the set for the Hopper Then I printed some alternate wheels for the WPL C24 Toyota pickup, here they are with tyres fitted. They are not the best but If I wanted to I could reprint on super fine setting. These however will be good enough. Thats it for now. Oh and a couple of replacement wheels for the wheelie bar That really is it.. Regards

Well Flo, I am hoping that with the new suspension setup this will be stopped. I had 2 broken ones from jumps on the lunchbox.
It should work well on the Lunchy, Hornet and Grasshopper Regards

Not the Ampro one Flo but the same.
Here is how it looks on the Hopper chassis which I have found is a GH II chassis. Even more now its a GH II chassis I still do not have a clue where it came from, I never had one. I just have to make the bars a little longer, .but it works great. I've had to order some knuckles for the Hornet/GH as I only have 1 for some reason. The suspension struts had snapped off so this is something I found on Thingyverse which seems to work. Now to find some shocks to fit. Regards
