    This goes back to the earliest Thunder Shot which was raced, had some pretty hard front end hits and A part never failed. You A part fix video was very detailed,well done.

    Thanks Adam for the advice you sent me regarding A5 Part , i have purchased the steel brace from eBay to put on when building but also ordered the alloy upgrade part from RC Mart. Another great video

    Great video and presentation of the problem.
    So the Xtra Speed hop up will be great for Terra Scorcher owners.
    I always try to replace screw pins with hinge pin/suspension pins.

    why dont u drill the hole out a bit bigger? when u change out the A5 part to steel what brakes then?

    • @RCACTIONAUSTRALIA
      @RCACTIONAUSTRALIA  4 роки тому +1

      I guess Drilling the Hole could be an option although the Stress from the suspension parts is Still on the A5 part.
      I’m unsure of what would break next. I’ve been Running these Chassis for awhile now & Find the Weak spot is the A5 bracket

    Thanks for the great video!
    Another thing I've seen was to use a soldiering iron to heat up the screw pin head to get it hot enough before screwing into the A5 plastic. I'd be weary of using a lighter so close to other plastics :)

    • @RCACTIONAUSTRALIA
      @RCACTIONAUSTRALIA  4 роки тому +1

      Yes I did try the Soldiering Iron, but I doubt it heated the whole Screw Pin, the lighter seems to heat the tread section Quickly, yes you must have the screw out enough to avoid surrounding areas.

    Top advice Adam. Shame that Tamiya didn't sort something out with it but at least there are a few options and you are quite the expert on this topic!

    all so vintage grease and newer grease witch one is best? for vintage cars

    • @RCACTIONAUSTRALIA
      @RCACTIONAUSTRALIA  4 роки тому +1

      I’ve seen afew videos on UA-cam on how to fix old white plastics. I think they use peroxide?
      I use Tamiya Ceragrease on all of my cars.

    • @RCACTIONAUSTRALIA
      @RCACTIONAUSTRALIA  4 роки тому +1

      Yes it’s ceramic grease. Tamiya Supply it in a lot of re re kits now. & I use it on all my new & vintage

      @@RCACTIONAUSTRALIA Yeah, I can see that if printed in PLA or not properly printed. But it should be all right if printed in Nylon I think. I'll have to give it a go with Nylon and see. Too bad my order isn't shipping until next month lol.

    • @RCACTIONAUSTRALIA
      @RCACTIONAUSTRALIA  4 роки тому

      To be honest the X Speed Alloy part is the way to Go. $19 USD. Comes with the Stainless Pins & all, 3D parts are more expensive I’ve noticed.

    Mate, you really should get a proper mic (either a lav mic or better mic for your camera). You've got some good content, but hard to enjoy it due to kind of bad audio.

      Yeah I’m finding my sound Quality really drops once I upload to UA-cam. It’s definitely nicer prior to upload as I’ve really been trying to improve the Sound & trying different mic’s etc.

    That Xtra Speed bit makes me want a 2020 Scorcher!!
    I had the Original, broke the A5 within a week. 😖
    We had very little aftermarket support in the 80's, so we made braces for them.
    We used Mecchano steel bits to reinforce our Falcons!! 😜

    Some great upgrades there.
    Just wondering with the two A5 part holes that are under stress when you put the screws in, would it relieve any stress if you possibly drilled out the holes slightly before putting the screws in?
    I dont own a terra scorcher so not really familiar with the A5 assembly.....but just thinking.
