Hi All, Thanks to Oli4ke i am now a proud owner of a pile of bits, lol, that will be my main 4wd once it is ready. Can anyone help me with my only problem, I need to get some of the alloy arm mounts, plastic ones are law30 i believe but if I'm gonna race it i need ALLOY cos' it's rough in our region, lol. When it is done i will post some pics.

Thanks A, K, Nut. Simon

Welshy40 23-06-2011 07:22 PM

I would suggest buying the plastic items and getting vega to make them for you as they are superb machinists.

Hi, thought I would put this up here.

I have recently restored a Lazer ZX-RR out of mostly used and cleaned but also some NIB parts.
The car is a complete ZX-RR: Equalizer shocks, new front C-Hubs, rear uprights with additional parts, new Slipper, slightly changed ball diffs,...

Right now it sits on my shelf. If anybody is interested just PM or email me.

Nice, now you need to upgrade it so you can use lipos and show these new cars what a great design can still do.

Yeah compared to all the brass yes much much cheaper but that wasnt why i got them more just because i could do it...........

Welshy40 02-07-2011 09:48 AM

Well i went racing at RCArena last night (on the club listings) and was a bit unsure on how the car would go with my designed front mount. Ive still got issues with being unable to go flat out round corners as the back end comes out so front shocks and front ride height need adjusting to better it. I also found that the centre weights that sit on the CF block are giving too much weight to the front so am going to cut some in half and scew to the back hole on the CF block which should balance the car on jumps.

Other than those issues and the fact that the front belt had over stretched itself so was only giving 50% to the front the car performed very well. I took tq against a durango and my lap times were almost all identical so seems to be almost dialed. Pity the belt was shagged as i had to run my zxs in the final but was fun never the less and ended up driving like a spaz but who cares.

Shell attached. Looks good and in two weeks time will be going properly. :thumbsup:

isobarik 04-07-2011 03:40 PM

Looking good welsh

Some hefty attack on that wing.

mvh Isobarik

Welshy40 04-07-2011 04:29 PM

I dont use the zx or zxr one but found a solid one piece wing mount and seems to be molded at the correct angle. Just a few things to sort out first before im happy.

rondoolaa 04-07-2011 09:58 PM

Which would be the best fibre lyte front shock tower to buy?

Thanks for advice

Welshy40 05-07-2011 05:57 AM

I prefer the semi circular on on the zx page but the copy they made wasnt an exact copy. Im talking to them today to remodel the bottom of it. Ive never managed to break one so are well worth buying.

isobarik 05-07-2011 12:40 PM

Not a problems mate. Front gearboxes are useful so let me know how much more for another mate.

Maybe i will send one for free and you will be my BFL....ha ha ha

rondoolaa 05-07-2011 08:37 PM

thats cheap, can i buy one for that price ;-)

Welshy40 06-07-2011 05:29 AM

You are already my bitch for life with all the items out there that can now be bought again for the Lazer including my most recent spur and zx/zxr lipo tray.

However ive got the very first design lipo tray for the zxs that is wafer thin but does work well. Once ive found a case to put in to protect it i will send onto you. The one i wanted to send you seems to have gone missing.

adam lancia 06-07-2011 07:19 AM

Hey James,

Where did you get the LiPo tray from? I'm looking for something to fit Trakpower 4800's in a Mk.1 chassis. I was thinking of using the B44.1 tray since it's one piece, thought it would make mounting it easier. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I have discussed the front semicircular front tower with Fibrelyte. Im awaiting the cad drawing to see for myself but should be ready for buying next week. Also my version ZXS copy to fit the ZX is good as im using that at the moment but am also having it remade with a mod too it and will also be ready for rnext week.

Adam,

B44 one doesnt fit hence why I did what I did. Have a look at my pics several pages back and youll see my lipo design. Its basically based on a TRF511 design but is significantly different. I will be talking to Fibrelyte today and will get a template drawing made up fort he ZXR as the design I have currently done is for my design chassis only. Cost may be a bit steep (I think around £30), but its made a hell of a difference for me. You will need to either drill two holes in the centre of the chassis or stick it on with very super sticky adhesive tape for the middle bit and the other two halves just screw into the batt post holes. I have designed it so you can add up to 85g on each side using three cell hole zimmer brass plates (each 15g) and one 40 rudebitz plate for the ZX5FS which needs a bit of filing to fit perfectly and of course you can add quite a lot of rudebitz 511 centre chassis plates, I am currently using three (each 17g). Hope this is of help.
