@@theoagrc oh man , it took time . I spent days tweaking and messing about to get 10 clean laps. I had so much recorded i didn't know up from down come editing time. Thank you for watching!

Thank you for taking the time to watch . The sub is much appreciated! You can see it's a tinny channel. Your channel is my next stop.

@DustyFingersRC Hey man, thank you! That's pretty high praise!

@Paul__FC I watched the video 3x. Lol The audio was at perfect levels with the lap counter. Worked really well. Did you have to do anything special to make that work or was it just picked up by the camera recording?

I actually used an external mic on the camera and a Bluetooth boom box for the lap counter. Then just some guess work.

@@Paul__FC Oh OK, cool. Worked a treat 👍🏻

I've done the same! Sweet green monte!

Sorry, I just saw this post. I bought the fronts and rears as a package off ebay. Here is the link. www.ebay.com/itm/355013490958?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=y4nd9mggrxe&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=RrQ6h-1RRDe&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

@yodadarksideGreenHawksRC thanks man, I tried hard to get the blue screen to work, but the light was all wrong and turned the video black and white. Your logo was one I tried to get to work.!

@Paul__FC Ah cheers for the thought buddy......i think everyone was more focused on that little hopper trying it's best to show off it's hidden race pedigree anyway!! 😂 Very much looking forward to seeing what vintage icon graces the track next time around..... weather permitting of course! 😉 👍 👍

Well, happy 50th! I was hoping you would pop in. I'm thinking of knocking that jump/bump down and giving the Hopper a "Redemption" run.

@Paul__FC nice hopper aren't great jumpers.. they are ok with launch type but front end is always all over the place.. . Ever think about wood ramps with grass so you can quick change track up without having to digg.. maybe little kicker ramp. Will be looking for redemption run brother

@reitplace4765 i was out this weekend looking for outdoor turf rugs but stores everywhere have removed them for Christmas decorations. :( so I bought a new sledge hammer instead.

@@Toystheyrenot puts it all into perspective. 🤣 it took days to pull off 10 clean laps.

I dropped a few F-bombs. That was days of crashing until I got that stupid little jump right and pulled off 10 clean laps. You can hear the last lap bell on 6 different crashes. I was losing my mind!

@@Paul__FC The look on your face was priceless! We've all been there!

@UncleBobsRC I love the old school gear. I should have test drove the track with my frog. It's the golden rule of the track I made for track. If the frog can't do it , it too hard.

@@Paul__FC I have a few (6 to 8) old Green Machines stockers and a few old mod motors too.. My old ESC's would knock your socks off.

HULK SMASH!!!! Was all I was thinking until I re-shaped the jump. Easy peasy after that.

@@Paul__FC 😄🤣

Thanks, buddy. Days went by before I could get 10 clean laps, and by that time, I had recorded hours of time out there. I didn't know what went with what.

Hope you get hornet evo.

I certainly will.

@bradkalman2353 I originally built this kit 4th of July 2017. It took until now to show it any love. I have to say , the kit was resentful. If there was 1 mod, I'd would pick over any other it would be the Axle brace. The suspension actually started to work.

It went soooo bad I had to show it. Intro was Halloween themed, but by the time I got 10 clean , we were halfway to Thanksgiving!

Nightmare, in the end, I re-shaped the little jump, and I was able to get 10 clean laps first try.

@acecapone8086 Thank you, I struggled with this one and got disappointed, but it was received well.

Thank you so much. That might be the nicest thing I've heard said.

Hey , thankyou very much.

@theoagrc Thanks, buddy. Can't wait to see your top secret project come out!!

@JoevsRc yep , 10% . It was in the spectrum receiver. Which meet it's end when the ESC went up in smoke.

@Paul__FC my flysky gyro with stock settings would cut the power to the motor when activated. I went into the settings and shut off the power decrease and it went faster. Maybe you have that settings?

@@JoevsRc I know now to look!!

@@Paul__FC hope it works 💪

@JoevsRc oh god, the transmitter has settings for it, and they were set to active.

@coygtrc Thank you . It was enjoyable running with everyone. I certainly agree, I feel like I'm committed a crime wiping out these vintage units.

Thank you very much! I'll have some track stuff to share. I most likely will not be in front of the camera. That part I don't like so much.

Your crash was top of mind at the when I mentioned crashes. That's why I mentioned you and your closer. I seriously thought you were going to turn green and smash. It was that feeling I had looking at those motors, but I was mad at myself for missing something and causing it. I don't script anything or have a plan. I just turned on the camera and blab it all out.

@@Paul__FC It was frustrating and I was pretty angry but going into it I know there is the risk of epic failure from a crash or from a fire or even getting run over! So it was back to the drawing board and start over! I am 100% the same way, I rarely plan anything out, it shows many times but if I had to plan everything and script things there would be no fun in it and it would not be me. So I wing 90% of everything and the other 10% is vague planning or dumb luck, mostly dumb luck! LOL!!!

@Rcprescription You did excellent, too. I had a great time watching your video's. See you next time for sure!

@TeamJunkYardDog Well, it's a learning curve. It seems the braided wire to the brushes on 2 motors seems to be cooked. Too tall gearing and too much juice tuned my motors into little space heaters.

@@Paul__FC We did that with our 8 turn last year. We tried to run it this year and got 47mph last year it pushed our tt02 to 69mph. I am suggesting a current production only rule for next year.

@TeamJunkYardDog I'm going brushless next year. I feel really bad about trashing that old gear. I floated an idea that would mitigate the issue, but I don't want to give it away and have someone beat Fil to the punch. With a solid start date next year, it will be easier to get a motor deal done.

Thankyou very much , I'll be throwing my likes and comments back at you!

@@MarkBryanRC A draw and a pint it is!! I'll keep an eye out for your next video!

Yeah. It happens. I see a silver lining. I'm shopping around for a good micro lathe and a stock pile of the needed brushes. I found my Orion has a badly burned brush lead and I'm praying I can save it. It o my had 2 runs on it. Thank you for the kind comment. I hope it was fun!

It certainly started getting ugly at the end. Everyone pushing harder and harder. That's what it's all about and not one walked any with less knowledge.

@UncleBobsRC Oh I don't mind paying for something that if I burn it up, I just buy another. It's these vintage motors that are going extinct that bums me out. I'll never see another new in package Orion Orbital 2 again. I am going to buy a micro lathe and try to repair these.

@yodadarksideGreenHawksRC it was a good time!! Now, I can make time to winterize the boat and clean up the track.

lol , At least somebody is!!! I'm bringing up the rear.

Dammit!!!!!

@@Paul__FC 😂 😅 🤣 👍

​ Common Bob...... Ain't you guys in the same time zone? It's nearly 4am over here in the grim UK!! 😂😅🤣 👍 👍 👍

@@yodadarksideGreenHawksRC ohhh ... he rubbing it in now...... gets popcorn.

@JoevsRc that's the insta 360 ace pro.

@@UncleBobsRC Just this one. It used to just be my name but I switch it up after Fil sent me that sweet banner. Thanks you for watching my friend . Great to have you.
