Sorry, no drawings of the diff/motormount though. Just made it up as I went along.

So far I had no chance to race it against a nitro truggy. You don't see much truggies here, most nitro guys are still into buggies here. This summer I will take it out with me on tour, and maybe I'll even pay you guys on the Island a visit. I'll let you know when I'm around, would love to drive on your track, Cabking.

And I'm sure when you get to know your tranny revo better, get the turn sweeping throttle technique down, you'll catch up with the nitros. Even on tight tracks.

Daf. if you make it as far as the South coast of England, we would love to see you and your Trucks.

Cabking, I meant it in a good way! Keep going. Didn't want to suggest you can't drive.

Yes, I'll sure let you know wen I'm in the UK the next time. Always ready to make "short-cuts" for a lil' RCing. When I'm traveling light, I may only bring the BL MBX5, though.
Your location is cool for me. I could even come by ferry, via France.


Sylvester, thank you very much. But there are plenty of other awesome RCs around, really. Everybody has his style, and no one was the first one or will be the last one. And most times it's only just about to turn an idea into reality. Imagination is all it takes, and patience, of course. Spare money is always nice in our hobby, too.

Cheers lads
DAF

Well I have to say dafni has some sweet rides. I can't say that others can't do it. Just whether they choose to do it.

Rene has some clean rides to. He just don't show them all off to everyone.


Peace!

Hey Cabking the G2R likes to drift a little, or mine does so try that. I also moved the rear upper suspension pin to the lower position

I did the exact thing. It really gives it that "bite" on tracks or any surfaces.

Yea, daf. There are many beautiful trucks out here, and every member here that owns any truck, must have his/her own taste of what they like, and if they dont like it, i dont see why they bought/made/created it.

Yea, just check out Steve Slayden's Revo setup guide. Theres several parts to it. Some pertain to Revos in general and some to just nitros. You can check it out at Traxxas.com.

Another update: Truck still runs very well, smooth as butter. Drives just like a buggy with big wheels.
Finally found the diff oil setup that suits my driving perfect, and the suspension is also dialed now, for rough tracks. Learned quite a bit more of Revo setups on this truck.
