Liquid masking also works depending on the plastic. I have sucecsfuly used, dish washing soap, vaseline and peanut butter. The problem with liquid masking is you have to be careful not to disturb the...
Hot glue works great! I only suggest Elmers because not everyone has a glue gun or wants to buy one (even though they are cheap), and most anyone can drop a buck on Elmers.
LOL I know right? I do have a one of a kind Duncan FHMG worth roughly 700.00 It was a stock FHMG that cost 550.00, then I had my buddy add a custom one off powder coat to it....
Thanks! When it comes to dye I have been doing it for many years, same with bearing maintenance. Most of the yoyos I do cost between 15-25 bucks, when I get done some have sold for over 200.00. The...
http://www.flickr.com/photos/lickinfrogz/327675297/in/photostreamYou don't dip into boiling water. You boil the water to let it activate the dye. Let it cool a little bit, not too much, then you dip....
When dying yoyos I use standard Elmers glue. Put it on semi-thick but make sure it has plenty of time to dry. I have used it on more yoyos than I can count and it works every time, even when I use...
No shake or spin. The hole forces the solvent through the bearing to "blast" out the crud.
LOL wow! These things are just now being used for RC bearings? I have been a competitive yo-yoer for almost 10 years now ( won a title every year) and we have been using these things since roughly...
My first paint job. It is really messed up. However since it will be abused, I decided to just go with it! The red sticker on there is a yoyo store I frequent so I gave em some free advertising while...
The dice cam video is fine! looks like it would work!
To follow my GoPro alternatives post, what about motor alternatives? Everyone seems to love the mamba systems. What about budget builders? Can someone buy for example, buy a HobbyWing system and...
I'm liking those generic key chain cams! I thought about an old cell phone but my old blackberry is being used by my 70 yr old mother. :)
As the title says, whats your favorite cake icing flavor? Oh..umm I mean, what is a good alternative to dropping 200+ on a GoPro? I am not worried about super top of the line high speed 3d images...
Make sure to use proper paint! Run of the mill spray paint will not cut it, trust me. I ran out of funds and had to use what I had on hand. It is one **** of a 20 footer though. :) Also google...
Oddly enough after posting I decided to pull the slipper apart. It all seems well. The pads have some wear but they are far from gone. Maybe I should run it Sunday cranked down?
Last weekend I did my first ever 3s run. Worked great for about 23 seconds. Did the walk of shame to get my Slash and smelled some major funkiness. Something smoked! So this evening I get around to...
Well I am completely lost now! I too am looking for a near future upgrade, thanks to tax season. I plan on following this thread so as not to ask these same questions in a week or two. My slash 4x4...
Just curious, here, do the losi shocks have to be modded or are they a direct fit on the slash 4x4? I would like to look into new shocks in the next month or so myself, but didn't know if they were...
My first love is yoing! I hold a number of championships in the state of GA as well as the southeast. I have won the GA state 1s division title since 2004 and twice won the southeast regional contest...
I too am a newb so take what i say with a grain of salt. It seems we run the same set up with the fans and stuff. My gearing has been the same as yours. I run through 2 2s 5200mah packs with a small...
Heat sync has been on it almost since I got it. I do know I will break stuff with the 3s which is why it will be the last battery I use on Sunday. lol . Thanks for the help I've come to expect from...
I have been running the 12p and 54 spur gear for a couple of months on 2s with no problem at all. However I do have the stock pinion as well as the optional 18t pinion and an additional 14t pinion....
I have read many posts suggesting low pinion( 12-14 ) with a 54 tooth spur. However in the manual and the site it suggests an 19 tooth pinion with the 54 tooth spur gear. I just purchased my first 3s...
I got my first taste of Badlands yesterday. It was storming here in GA, but I had to bash anyways. I did most of my running through semi-grassy areas with lots of puddles and some road. These things...
