Randum Posted January 19, 2017 Share Posted January 19, 2017 Really? That's a bit pants. Does it not fit in the other box? Not seen one of these in the flesh but couldn't be dealing with that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rustypeb89 Posted January 19, 2017 Share Posted January 19, 2017 Yeah doesn't seem the best really. It fits in but waiting on my receiver then will see if it does, think it might of you don't have a switch between the battery and receiver or have it somewhere else as that's meant to be in the box too.

locky Posted January 19, 2017 Share Posted January 19, 2017 Use the Hyper 7 V2 H87603 radio/battery box which has compartment for switch/receiver and one for battery, all enclosed, you will have to trim down a small part of side guard if i remember but uses same mounting holes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vr5fx Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 I converted a ST and today was the first run. One of the rear drive shafts (Universal shafts) are constantly turning into a banana, I wasn't jumping on one occasion, did a few laps and hey ho, had to take it out and smack it straight, as it was that bent it came out. It's like something in the rear has too much play, but can't figure it out. Anyone have any ideas? Is it possible the drive shaft is weak from being straightened too many times?

If it was my truggy I'd buy some new rear driveshafts to see if it eliminates the problem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've some vague memory of their being diffrent length UJ's for front and rear on the PRO pn 86012 front UJ for Pro - 129mm pn 86217 rear UJ for Pro- 132mm Poss you have front UJ's in the rear? Worth noting too that it was quite popular to fit the RTR's rear dogbone set up too - thicker, stronger and cheaper than UJ's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ya know, I think you might be right about the uj's being different lengths. Its been absolutely ages but I think my ST may have had the same problem at one point Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MAZ Posted February 5, 2017 Share Posted February 5, 2017 Any recommendations for a new RX box for my brushless ST? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vr5fx Posted February 5, 2017 Share Posted February 5, 2017 I ended up buying some standard drive shafts and cups, wasn't too expensive, so it was worth a punt. I also bought new rear uppers, checked everything was as it should (I've had a few ST's before, so I'm no noob) Took it out today, And this time, same side the standard dogbone came lose and the pin ground down. I was driving silly though. Something is playing silly buggers with me. 2 minutes ago, MAZ said: Any recommendations for a new RX box for my brushless ST? Firestorm Flux fits nicely on top of the servo, ran it on the last one I had. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
