You will want to overlap the tape on the ends at least, otherwise the tire will stretch in the place where the ends of the tape meet. So go around slightly more than once. However, if you wrap...
I am too. But I want to run 4s and ballooning is an issue at such insane speeds.
Ok everyone, I finally unglued my tires from the rims. It turns out that the gorilla tape did not split, but the adhesive failed. So I don't think there is a tape out there that will work. I don't...
Interesting idea to Belt with carbon fiber. This might be the solution to my problem. I can't wait for the tutorial. Could you post here with a link to it once it is uploaded? Thanks!
I've been thinking of getting a slash body and cutting out a strip in the middle to shorten it. But reattaching the front to the back might be a bit tricky.
Mine is 8lbs, and getting heavier, lol.
From the manual:
See if changing the throttle trim on your transmitter fixes the issue.
Gorilla tape is superior to duct tape in just about every way especially in strength and adhesion.
Yes, I did.
Oh, I didn't realize that the tape could split. I assumed that the adhesive was failing. I know with the carpet tape that I tried, the adhesive failed, (I only did one full wrap...
This exactly^^
I'm glad I'm not the only one :)
Its been just sitting in my garage because I don't want to run it with flappy wheels <_<
EDIT: I have no idea if this would work, but has...
I'm still having this issue. The only thing I can think of is just not taping the trenchers at all, but on 4s, I am worried.
Does anyone have any ideas on this subject? The tape is coming undone causing imbalanced wheels and I have tried both joint carpet tape and gorilla tape. I don't know what to do at this point. ...
I did one and a half wraps, and balanced with clay.
Yes, It looked nice and smooth.
I used the three inch wide stuff and cut it to the perfect width.
Alright, I cleaned the tires very well and I taped the tires with Gorilla tape. After applying the tire glue, I balanced all four wheels. I made sure that the tire surface was completely clean when...
I went to the store today and got acetone and Gorilla tape.
I directly compared the carpet tape and the Gorilla tape and it turns out that the carpet tape is slightly stickier than the Gorilla...
Ok. Thanks guys, I didn't realize the power of Gorilla tape. I'll go buy some Gorilla tape and acetone to dissolve the tire glue. Will the acetone dissolve the foam inserts as well?
I used the carpet tape because I thought it was way stickier than gorilla tape. I can't imagine a stickier tape than the carpet tape. It is practically permanent. I must have been mistaken? Has...
Hello everyone,
I recently glued my first set of wheels so I could have a 17mm hex for my P4de running the mamba monster system on 3s and 4s. I mounted 2.8 Trenchers on 3.2 Revolvers using the...
It sounds to me like you are having brown outs. I had this problem as well with the stock servo. It usually went away the next day, but it was very annoying. From my research, I believe that the...
I had this same problem with the new MIP axles/hexes. I did end up super-gluing the new MIP hexes in the wheels, and it worked for a while, but eventually they became unglued and stripped (I was...
I feel your pain. I just got my truck back together after three months of waiting for backordered parts and I went to drive it and my radio transmitter fried. *facepalm* I ordered a replacement,...
It could also be the slipper clutch. See if tightening the slipper clutch on the stampede helps. Just be careful that it is not too tight because then you might break something in the driveline.
I believe you are talking about the led lightbar, traxxas part #6784.

Thanks for the help. I will get the StableMaxx offset.
Thanks guys. Is there any major performance difference with a wider stance?
