Roadblasters optical yoke to spinner??
(1/3) > >>
Dexter:
Hi all,

I have a roadblasters controller that I can salvage the optics, gears etc. from. Is it possible to convert it into a working spinner and has anybody undertook this project before??

Cheers

Dexter

It should be pretty simple.  I haven't taken mine apart yet, but it looks like if you remove the "stops" on the front bottom, the springs inside, and the button wiring, it should spin freely.  It probably has some heavy duty bearings designed more for strength than speed, but it should work fine anyway.

Isn't road blasters a 270 wheel.  I think it uses potentiometers not optics.  If so you can't really make it into a spinner.

Be really careful handling that tar stuff that those rubber bumpers turn into.
It's (almost?) impossible to get out of the carpet, clothing, etc...
It will eventually come off of your hands, but I think you have to lose the layer of skin it's attached to first.
