Older design was using original spring, this new design allows oil dampers, without hurting the original look and feel of the hopper and hornet. details on how to install the arm is on my youtube channel(humble vintage rc), however the process is pretty simple and straightforward. Once you print out the arm, be careful to not break it while removing supports. Because of the angle in the arm, it is a little difficult to remove supports. To ease the support removal, print the arm upside down, I found it much easier! slow-motion video showing front suspension work with Korea's famous penguin PengSoo : https://youtu.be/zE7bjocG2Bs Build instructions and test run : https://youtu.be/ws1WjslrkY8 My new chase video of grasshopper showing the movement of front suspension upgrades https://youtu.be/-FArpeDmI2Y Please post comments in thingiverse or youtube for any feedback or queries! ================================================================= Please check my other grasshopper upgrade parts for all of my designs.
