  • @brandonschaeffer5171
    @brandonschaeffer5171 17 วันที่ผ่านมา

    So fun! Great job! On a track with a longer straight, do you think it can run a good distance up on its 3-wheelie? It looks very stable.

    • @SwiftSlots
      @SwiftSlots  17 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Running it on Ricard Valley is quite hard to make it look smooth because it's a tight fit at 75mm wide, but yes, it will hold the wheelie for as long as you want. I have the power turned down to 50% and at that level it will pop the wheelie at any speed at full power and hold it there. So on a bigger track, with more power, it would be amazing if you rolled the power on smoothly

    As you inferred Rob, these construction techniques are transferable to other projects and not limited to yellow curved plastic fruit. Great video as usual. Oh by the way, the black square cutting tool, a guillotine...?

    • @SwiftSlots
      @SwiftSlots  17 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Yes, I had a very hard job tracking one of these down many years ago. I ended up having to import it from the US at huge cost, but I saw it as an investment as my day job was (and still is) a model maker. It's a great tool and uses one sided razor blades (also hard to find!). Thanks Man, I'm glad you liked the build 🍌
