Please make sure to read the entire description. The ball head is not included, and must be purchased separately.
We were tired of working on our personal rigs on readily available RC repair stands, so we came up with this design. The design is based around a camera ball mount, and the ball mount allows for your RC car to be rotated or tilted at any angle to make maintenance much easier.
The ball mount used, as pictured, is: https://amzn.to/4cFeyih
The larger the ball mount, the more frictional surface area to create a more sturdy stand. Most ball mounts are equipped with a quick release. If additional quick releases are purchased, it allows for a quick change of the RC cradle to fit different style RC chassis' better. Ball head not included!
The steel construction has some weight, and is extremely stable. The steel construction also allows for magnetic components, such as magnetic helping hands to be attached to assist with repairs, such as soldering, when holding multiple wires is helpful.
This repair stand kit includes:
- Main Steel Base - The sturdy base is constructed from steel, and is welded for ultimate durability, even with the heaviest of rigs. The steel also allows for magnetic accessories to be placed on it, to assist with your projects.
- Chassis Cradle - The steel cradle that nestles your RC vehicle on the stand while you work on it. We have them in different configurations to accommodate your vehicle.
- Truck Cradle - This works well for 1:10 scale short course trucks, stadium trucks, buggies, and crawlers.
- Car Cradle - This works well for 1:10 drift, race, and touring cars.
What is required to finish the stand:
- Ball Head - Any ball mount may be used. We include a 1/4" hole in the base and RC cradle, which may be easily drilled out to 5/16", should your ball mount have that sized mounting hole. Many ball mounts have a 5/16" hole, some with a 1/4" threaded adapter to reduce the 5/16" hole to 1/4". The one used in the images is: https://amzn.to/3ZGdfLj
Finish:
- Hammered Black Powder Coat: As pictured, an ultra durable powder coated finish that matches just about anything.
- Raw Steel - Want to finish the stand your own way? This is the best option. The stand is raw steel, and ready for your prep work to paint it anyway you prefer.
