Re: Capo 1:8 Jeep CD15823
Work continues, stayed up late last night and spent some quality time with the jeep. The bearings were really tight on the steering shaft, and very loose fitting into the housing. So i pressed them in with paper towel. Also shimmed the shaft so there is no up and down movement. End result was a nice slop free steering arm.
Routing the steering cable. This was the easy part. Things get a lot trickier on the servo side.
This is how the servos mount together.
And heres the cables mounted up. Your basically stuck using a futaba type 25t spline servo because thats the only size horn included with the kit.
This is where the servos are mounted for steering and diff lock.
Thats it for now. Will be working on it some more today so the next update should be soon.
