Tape your tires and put a decent bead of silicone caulk on each part of the bead. Tighten them down evenly and be careful not to strip the screw hole, which can happen VERY easily. The caulk will...
Looks like a rear bumper, a piece of lexan, and a lot of tape. Pretty interesting design.
I believe it is a Hobbywing WP SC8
I think I am running 54/18. Too bad I didn't see this a few hours ago because I could have checked when I had it all torn apart to fix the damage I did when...
Having different spur gears just gives you some additional gearing options. They are more difficult to replace so most people just change the pinion.
MIP Xduty, Tekno M-6, or X-o1. Can't go wrong any of them. Traxxas makes steel CVD's that are supposed to be pretty good too and will also fit with your aluminum carriers and hubs. Mip is the only...
I'm though I have used 54/22 before.....but now I am doubting myself because I'm not sure what spur gear I had in at that time. It's very possible I was running my 50t spur at that time because I was...
Looks great. It's a real blast flying down the road at 55mph. I haven't done any speed runs in a while and it is making my trigger finger itch. It looks like you have the Castle 2650kv in there, and...
You should be able to run the highest gearing possible with a 2200kv motor on 3s. If you are just buying pinions get a few different ones just to be safe. I believe you start running into fit issues...
I am assuming you are having this problem when the truck is on the ground. If this is occurring when the truck is in the air with the wheels off the ground just ignore my post because it will not...
I never saw the thread, but I have to agree...they don't last long and they are very cheaply made. I haven't used my telemetry in a while and when I went to check it yesterday I realized my temp...
you have to go into the garage in the app and select telemetry setup (I think that's what it is called) and hit refresh. That should reload all the sensors you have plugged in. Make sure you have...
I would hope it would be WAY BETTER than the SC8 since it cost over $100 more. For an extra $100 (or more) it should toast my bread and make me coffee. Since it doesn't do either, I wonder what it...
The OP is using MIP's so Tekno hubs won't be of much use to him.
It's like Deja vu. It is the exact same first post in the other thread.
You need two 5x11x4mm bearings for each rear hub. Just a tip....Use Loctite on your wheel nut and don't crank down on the nut. Get it nice and snug but don't go crazy. Also let the Loctite dry for 24...
I used very similar lipos in my Slash way back when I wanted to test 3s. I had 2 2200mah 3s lipos laying around from a heli I no longer wanted so I put them in to see what it would do. They powered...
The et-3s and the 2400k motor were great options about two years ago, but once the word got out that it was a excellent buy the price skyrocketed through the roof. Eventually the price climbed so...
This stuff works great and is so easy to apply. I also use it to cover my decals. It stops them from peeling off or getting scratched up. My latest body is beat to crap but all the decals look like I...
Just get it snug. You can move the piston up and down to check if it is working. You should feel less resistance when you are pulling the piston back out. You should feel a noticeable difference,...
Avid bearings has their Revolution bearings, which have rubber on one side and metal on the other. Normally you face the rubber shielded side out because the rubber shield is better at blocking dirt...
Yes, the Traxxas transmitter can be bound to more than one vehicle but you will need a traxxas receiver in each vehicle. A few options cheap options are to either buy a Spektrum DX2E or a Traxxas...
The grub only keeps the hex on the axle when you pull off the tire. It is not necessary as long as you don't mind popping the hex out of your wheel every time you take the wheels off (if they are...
Thanks for the link Jimbo. Gonna buy a pack now.
I've done it, but not very often. You can put the connector in a vice (not too tight) or just wedge it between two boards and push on the metal with a screwdriver to pop it back out. Most of the time...
I can never find the male/female connectors for JST plugs. Every time I search all I find is preassembled connectors on a few inches of wire. Do you know of a good place to get unassembled JST...
