Twisted Spahgetthi :)
 

Well, before running my e-maxx today, i was just thinking today, ive got all these things on my e-maxx, but yet my stock center cvd's are still there, well i thought too soon....

I went out for a run, i got to test out my new ramp, which i already trashed because i need a bigger one, so i went jumping, some bashing in the backyard, when , somthing stopped, i thought i had stripped the spur or pinions, but no, it was my two center shafts, Wow! They twisted all the way, but this was just the rear, so i entered my house, discouraged that i cant run it anymore, but than i thought, screw it, front wheel drive only, so i leave to have some fun.

I drive around, let me tell you, FWD is not very fun at all, it only looks cool when its in damp grass it just spins like crazy :) After about 6 minutes the front wheels stop, uh oh! There goes my Other Shaft, so i think, ill just have to get some shafts from mike, i think ill get the MIP ones, will they work, i do not have extended chassis, so i hope they do.

get this

works great for me

thats for extended chassis.....

nope, this one is though

If you want to have some fun until your upgrades arrive, cut the old left-over slider shafts (front/rear) to the lenght of the centers. Voila. They should last a run :L:

What set-up were you running the stock drive-shafts on?

stock!

rock on!!! I'm running stocker sliders on a 2000XL and 18cells. The front sliders are fine, the rears are a different story. They've twisted about 90degrees after some outrageous wheeling in 2nd gear. So far they've lasted about 5 runs. I think the slipper clutch is taking quite a bit of the brunt tho (stock + 12 pegs fully tightened) - that's gonna need replacing soon......:p

a strobe or a robinson racing slipper would be a good investment.

<------------Getiing bl soon (XL3600 on 12 cells)

I'm definately gonna be getting the strobe when the stocker goes, its a bit stronger than the robinson I believe. Still, I'm quite happy whilst the stock one holds out :)

Sylvester, thats gonna be an absolute beast on 12 cells. I personally prefer the lower kv, higher voltage set ups. I get about 40 minutes run time (NO KIDDING) with 3300's.....it actually begins to get boring after 40minutes.....:rolleyes:

me too, but the stock is holding up fine right now :P

you might want to reconsider. im usually saying yea get the 3600 or 4200. i will never tell someone that again. i have the 3100 and its so fast i cant control it. and thats on 12 cells with a 14/66 gearing.

A gentle finger is all that counts Squee.. Better have the extra power and not needing it, than needing it and don't having it..

Amen ;)
