im a big fan of the selectable diffs.i try to go without locking them at all until i get stuck. i usually lock the front first since it helps pull the truck over obstacles. but for trails i sometimes...
update on this. i put in the underdrive gears and got some heavier wheels. im waiting for my dual stage foams to break in but it is doing fantastic so far.
Looks like you are doing good. I suggest trying petg for its durability over pla. It prints as easily as pla and it's better at withstanding heat. I use it for printing Lay down transmissions for...
Tierod ends always get sloppy for me. Only traxxas ones though.

I'm trying to improve my climbing abilities. So far I'm mostly stock with the exception of the steering servo and controller. I also flipped the bumpers for more clearance. I'm thinking about...
The fs-gt3b is popular.

My trx4 has been bulletproof. All I've done is upgrade the steering servo. The brushed motor is still going strong and the drivetrain seems to be unphased even if I get it jammed it in low gear. From...
Traxxas used to build race cars from what I understand. For a long time though they just relied on their old 2wd and 4wd platform. Those designs are now close to 30 years old. They sell well to new...
What surfaces are you running on? The rustler doesn't stand a chance against a t5m on carpet. If you are on dirt then just throw a titan 12t in and practice. The fastest stadium trucks at my local...
I found the best setup to be the revo setup paired with a tmaxx brake disk. Worked on 6s and on 2s.

Graupner has a 32 channel radio. You can expand each channel to 16 more channels with the right telemetry module.

I've been out to leisure hours! I ran my t5m and sct410 for a little practice on their indoor clay.

I ended up with a aluminum servo horn. I also fed the servo full 2s power using the jst connector on the esc for more torque. It seems to like it. Its not the only servo I'm running over voltage. My...
The first pic is at my lhs. The second and third are from my place.

Notice my diff servo horn position and battery tray mod. My diffs are either on or off. But always the same for...
i have a hobby shop less than an hour away from me. they lost all their outside space last year so all they're left with now is a 60 X 40 indoor carpet track maintained to national standards, 1:10...
outdoors clay is a lot of maintenance if you want traction. my local track is clay. when its damp theres a lot of grip. when its wet it is muddy and slick. when its dry its hard and dusty. indoor...
anything from revolectrix is good. you will need an external power supply though.
Since it's been a while since my last post here I would appreciate it if you started youtube while you read my post for added effect.

I'm using a prusa i3 mk2s. I will admit that I wouldn't have a lot of faith in a 3d printed spur.

The larger the can the more torque in general. And the more surface area for cooling. Bigger can usually means more power. Of course rotors make a difference too. Stronger magnets mean more torque...
I would love to look at a tesla. I have seen them driving around cedar rapids but I've never seen one up close.

That looks like a ton of fun

I think it a base model. Maybe one package up. Kinda wish I waited to find an autobahn but the only one in the area was 2011 with 122k miles. Mine is a 2015 manual. It had 17700 miles when I got it....
