Update - 12.21.2009, 04:57 PM

A lot of things have happened since my last post. As it turns out brushless + 6s lipo = very, very, very powerful... My fiance and family members pooled together and bought a pair of thunder power 3s 4900mah 40c lipo for my birthday. Because of the new batts I spent most of the summer replacing the drivetrain. I also had a lipo go bad on me (thunder power replaced the batt under warranty) so I really didnt have a reliable truck until the end of summer.


I had problems with the roll pin in the top shaft of the transmission always breaking. I replaced it with a solid steel pin. So far so good.




I also made a pin "cover" to protect the gears just incase the pin snaps again.







I also upgraded to a ue steel idler.



I will post some more pics of the chassis and upgrades later this week.

So its update time again... This truck has gone thru a lot of changes since my last update. I am now running a Slipperential with center diff mount and custom lipo trays from RCM. I also picked up a 1520 when Castle had their sale going on a while ago. I thought the 1515 had torque, I was wrong. This thing is nuts! I'm running 10k in the Slipperential and it will still pull wheelies from a roll!
