Getting a Stampede - FML parts?
Ive been reading a little about this car, and FML...
my plan is to get the Extended chassi (the 150$ version) Steel idler gear Steel diff (but i did see it was out of stock ,ny ideas when it will be availble again? WIth the extra wide arms,will it be needing the extended CVDs ? (i think yes) How about some tranny parts from the BL-Stampede? will that take 2-3s lipo and a 4.5t Orion for an example? Aand finaly, do i realy need to buy a rtr stampede for this? a list for me,as i am new for this brand and kind of cars(only racing 1/10th buggy normaly) what parts il be needing if il get loose parts for this one, and where to buyém.. /Thomas |
i have a pede, and first off i love it. IMO, theres no reason to do the flm wide arms, and only do the chassis if the smallest jump u hit send it is 30 ft. i think u should get the VXL, it comes standard with the steel tranny. my list of must have upgrades: RPM arms/bearing cariers/caster blocks all around(and maybe toers, i haven't broken one), integy bulk head, integy piggyback shocks, slash body mounts, extra spurs/servo savers, and rear nitro rustler wheels/tires all around (yup, it works, i run them)
|
I have most of the same but a CF chassis - Keep the front bulkhead plastic IMO - Nice to have one sacrificial cheap part!
Buggy front shocks in the rear and revo shocks in the front... The config in the pics is for a speed project but easy as a basher too! I've run this with a Castle Neu 1515 1Y 2200 on 4s... http://www.rc-monster.com/forum/show...ght=speed+pede |
Sounds good..can Buggy or "truck" shocks from ex Losi or AE be used on this truck ?
Il think il go for the FLM chassi anyway:lol: i like it. even if im no "bling" man, i realy like it. Ok, so getting a VXL, and then upgrade the other stuff ya saif...how about the FMLs steeldiff gear? i can get a Pede for 134$ what does a VXL cost...im no need of a BL motor or ESC; have that @home.. Since i have some LRP sphere esc here @home, do we think it will be enough with 2s lipo and say a 4.5 motor? ok, i can edmit that i would luuuv to run 4-6s on a low turn motor, but some controll would be nice, what da ya think ? |
With the amount of flm you want I would just by the traxxas bits you need on eBay.
I'm runing a 7l now with is fine but if I was buying a motor now I would buy a medusa 50mm 3300 with a mm. On the diff I just use the traxxas steel ring diff from the vxl and the steel topgear. |
Sounds Nice m8, may i ask one more thing..There is no chanse that you can help me with a "More" specefic list on what il be needing besides the flm chassi?
name,link and store. that would be ACE of ya :):) /Thomas |
Hey Thomes, I have a vxl pede roller (no motor, esc, rec, or servo) that I could sell you... It has a brand new body that was never run, the truck has been run maybe 3 times, less than 30mins total. It has the full steel tranny gears and the revo style slipper, so it is about bullet proof for brushless. Let me know if you want some pic or info.
I also have a flm pede chassis, not sure if it is the ext version or not... |
Lincpimp, il have to get back to you, sounds real nice
Arct1k, what can i say :d...thank YOU!!! EDIT, is that tranny case a must? (or mostly pimp, or is it neccesary ?), bearings and so? just get a full stampede kit ?, no more parts in the tranny?, should i get a rcscrewz kit ? Other stuff is now sold, so it will be ordred Saturday night or Sunday :P EDIT2: What rims fits this truck? is it regular 12mm hex rear? ex HPI,RPM, for rears...what kind of fronts does it need? |
May i ask, thoose -->17mm Hex Wheel Adapters that they offers, im not sure, what rims can be used? since im gonna use the super EX chassi and wide kit, any tip of what can be "cool" ? or is it a waist of money ?
|

It uses two bearings in the wheel to hold the front wheel on and spins more easily.
Also "beefier"... |
perfect, mailed the store owner, and hope he can change it :)

Ok, sounds nice...mailed and tried to PM T.Arnold about rodlength for steering, but without any succes :(. It seems that i have to build the car first,then order rods..
My Amain order arrives Tuesday (UPS called me yesterday) rc-monster, not sure, maybe this week, then :D:D....Tower still missing, maybe this week, kind of imported my bearingkit is in that one. |
Q: Did see that they offer 17 and 23mm hex for Stampede...any idea how truggy wheels/rims will look on this car ?
what tire/rim series/size can be used with thoose hex? i mean a 40 series arnt they REAL big? |
I'd use Buggy wheels on the Stampede. Truggy wheels and tires will really hard on parts. 40 Series tires are for 1/8th scale only, they're very large and very heavy.
|
Thanx Unsullied :)
|
No prob. Get the steel output yokes, at least 1 spare diff, a few driveshafts, and plenty of spare stub axles. Traxxas had a good design ~15 years ago but it's a bit weak for modern power and bigger tires.
|
Since i bought the CVDs from rc-monster dont the steel Output Yokes come with that kit?
I got one extra spare VXL diff besides the one that i will mount "Stub axles"..hmm not sure what this is :( |
If you've got the CVDs you should be fine. An extra diff is good to keep handy with large, heavy tires. The stock diff is fine for most use but if you're putting down enough power and/or using large enough tires there are several ways the stock diff can fail. I wouldn't worry about stub axles if you've got the CVDs, The ones that come with the kit should be plenty strong enough.
|
Thanks Unsullied again :D. About the 17 and 23mm hex just a thought, im gonna run the 30 series Dirthawgs and Mashers 2000 only.. :) hopefully they will be a little more gentle to the tranny then bigger other tires ?, or should i stick to "stock regular 2.2 tires"
|
Ohh, i missed, what Ballstuds can be used? regular 4/40 like AE ? any links wold be great to the ones that fit
|
Ahh just saw you 7700KV motor - you want the 4600 or ideally just by a mm and buy a medusa 50mm 3300.
|
Arct1k gonna buy the Medusa 3300 count on it :D the MM 7700 combo will be here @ Tuesday :P

Looks great!
|
man, i must say it feeeeels great :D...last thing will arrive this week, then i will polish the mamba motor, "sleeve" every cable...hopfully, if im lucky a test trottle, this sunday..but no body yet,
|
any ideas, the front casterblock + hingpins, they do not fit, had to drill a 100 of a mm..(they that fit the steeringblock..)
The plastic ones didnt fit at all..sandning, and drilling to makeém fit 80%... WIll the Orginal traxxas alu fit better? or should i go for plastic casterblock ? |
