FINALLY, I think it's fixed....

As many of you know, I finished my e Revo about a month ago. I've been having bs issues after issues getting it right.... mostly the MGM controller.

I thought buying a Neu motor, MGM and a 5S battery, I wouldn't have any issues or problems because I skimped.

Anyway, my main problem lately is the damn truck nose dives at random at any speed and not able to duplicate it at will.

The first time I thought it was because I installed a 3905 ring and pinion in the rear axle and never changed the front. After counting teeth, I realized that they were different. It was like having 4.56 gears in the front and 4.11's in the rear.

So I changed gears in the front to match the rear and it still does it.

Then it was suggested to me to change the programming from low rpm to race mode and install a li-saver. I'm not sure how that helps the nose diving but I'll try anything once.

Now that I've done about everything I can, I noticed it's getting really bad... more and more nose diving. It's gonna trash my truck because it'll come to a sudden stop and end up doing 4-5 somersaults.

Anyway, I took the front diff apart tonight and couldn't find anything wrong. At the last minute, I applied pressure on the front diff pushing the pinion gear into the ring gear. I noticed it basically locked up until the pressure was released.

So simple solution, I placed a small washer in between the pinion gear and driveshaft and voila, no more binding when letting off the gas.

I took it out about midnight and beat the crap out of it on the lawn and never once saw it nosedive. I may be wrong but it seems to finally glide to a stop instead of nosediving.

I'm so happy.
