Spare Parts

Hey, Tiny, I don't suppose you have a spare set front wheels. If you do, I'd be willing to buy them off of you.

Thanks for any help.

Right, but a pound is a measure of weight (force). A gram is a measure of mass. Mass is not weight. Torque is not force. It's work (force*distance). People always confuse metric masses for weights.

Do they sell it by the foot at Home Depot? That's nice. I wish we had one around here. The only way you can find Cat 5 around here is either in overpriced pre-made cables or by the reel. I'll find...

A little lube can be a good thing. You're best off with a dry lube, probably, though. You can get a little tube of graphite powder at the hardware store that should do the trick quite well.

Toyeast is great. The shipping is a little pricey, but just order a bunch of stuff to make up for it. They have some pretty excellent prices and a rather good selection.

The wheels in the front don't move. The rear wheels are independantly driven, hence two motors. They also use proportional control. They're controlled by IR, which can be both good and bad. About the...

Just wondering... What is involved in making one of those? I can't imagine you hand wind them. It would seem that with the volume you put out that just wouldn't be possible.
