Some slow update. After several weeks thinking of how to put the D110 together.. here's what I got. Lots of mistake and improvement that I will avoid and implement for my second D110 build.

Thanks Bro. But my skill so so nia. From far looks OK but near... Embarassed

Hope my second one would be better. Still a long way to go. More work to be done on the body. Now thinking how to do the Roll bar and the carriers.

Thanks laneboysrc. My skill is really not up to it... so hope the roof rack and roll cage will hide all this. Embarassed

. The yellow is deep yellow not like the real sandglow yellow.

Thanks. I still need to figure out how to mount the roof rack and role cage. Was wondering if can build the roof rack with styrene. As most D90 complaint top heavy. I still have to mount the spot lights and accessories. Will DIY a shovel and high lift jack and see how it comes out. Tried to buy a winch but looks like all no stock. Went down to sim lim to see if can find a suitable motor with gear to use for winch but came out empty...maybe i did not search hard enuf, so now will try DIY the winch using servo with 3kg torque and see how it goes... everything is still a question for me.

Chassis:

Front and back uses 4 truss. This is so that I do not need to lenghten my drive shaft. The rear still have about 1cm contact. Will work on the hollow aluminium tubes to cover the 3mm treaded rod. More update after my roof rack is done up hopefully this week.

by boolean21 Tue 17 Jul 2012 - 0:45

Seems like ready to roll out soon! Very Happy

Need to find out how to mount the body up without any screw to the body that can be seen from the outside, thats the best if can. Any suggestion? And where do you guys get your battery from? Looking for NiMh as I have the charger ored. So that I can roll out for test drive while pending other installation like bull bar, winch... that will take time too.

by boolean21 Tue 17 Jul 2012 - 1:35

I mount my landy body only using the 3holes at the rear mud flaps... the front is held on using velcro. I have a hinge at the rear.

Cheapest nimh in sg shd be from jethobby, got 2pcs when I started with my honcho last year... Smile

They are still my trusty swimming pals.... Very Happy

Thanks for the tip. Will try it out. Been to JetHobby but dun seem to see NiMh around. Will ask the boss on my next visit. Thanks again.

Jethobby don't sell the nimh batt already. Try street revo rc shop look for ethan they sell the 4500mah quite cheap bro. Nice job on the 110 built hope to see it soon as we r organizing a landy scale trail soon.

by laneboysrc Tue 17 Jul 2012 - 7:17

Looking awesome and almost done! I really like those rims and the color.

I would recommend painting the light buckets silver on the inside. I did that to ours and it looks so much better than leaving them black. Fiddly job though...

Looking forward to see this truck at a trail soon!
