Back from the dead thunder

[OwlsDen]

It's a real thunder 100%. I received is an empty shell. It has a new Faulhaber motor ( not the exact model but a good stand in until I get the right one ) and the hub/cam from and Inkjecta Flite. I modded the straight bar to fit for the initial testing but will soon be modding the give bar, because why not? Currently it has a 6v motor and is a little louder than a stock thunder but seems as strong at 4.5v as a standard thunder does at 10v. Can't wait to fit the give bar in and test that but I imagine it will be a beast.

Faulhaber 1724 is the original I believe although I could make due with a Maxon of some sort or portescap. currently I have a Faulhaber 1717 and its gutsy but I don't think it will last long for what I am asking of it.

Yeah I will have to do something. That 1717 can push T-Techs but it can't push Cheyenne carts.
