better wheels and hexxes. the 3905 comes with metal hexxes.id use them or upgrade to 17mm adapters.

[whitrzac]

we have major big problems...

is it worth upgradeing to center CVs??? or will that take out other drivetrain parts??


NO, I will NOT loosen the slipper


after 3 runs...

I do have it slightly loose now, but I think this might have happend trying to do frontflips when I first ran it

the trx wheelie bar is a POS

[whitrzac]

got back from the track today...

damage list
front skid plate
front bulkhead
front driveshaft
3 servos!!!
someones pride


this thing has muched 3 of my best MG servos that I have, a JR650, JR590, and an off brand 202oz .13 digital servo!! 1 was because I had the epa set at 150%, and the 2 JRs just developed sooo much slop that it wouldn't center

it handels fairly decent, but I'm defently going to get a set of truggy tires for it.

I beat the 1/8 buggy a guy brought out, he had almost a lap on me and then flamed out he wasn't the best driver, but still

Mmmm, backflips
I love 30+ foot tripples

BTW, I circled a divot(1.5 in deap,) in the ground(casued by the maxx) that broke the bulkhead.

[twisted8]

yea end points are a very important adjustment. i also read that if not properly adjusted it can pull power to much from the mmm bec.

i set my steering epa so the tires turn and stop right before they lock out.

got any action pics ?

[lincpimp]

None of those servos are enough to run the steering on a MT, you need 250 min and that is with a digital servo. Run a pair of the 650 jr servos, or some 645 hitecs if you feel cheap! I like jr 9100t servos, only need 1 but at $120 each they are a bit pricey. They can be had used for 80 bucks if you look carefully. (cough, crawler forums, cough)

no...

[rawfuls]

I don't see what's wrong in this picture:


Then again, I don't have center shafts, watch it be so obvious I'm too stupid to notice em..

[mkrusedc]

Get some dogbones for your centers and you will be done oh and 17 mm hexes will take care of the wheels.
