Stumungous Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 It was Savage XS day today Fitted my new warranty replacement 'Vapor Pro' (lives up to its name!) ESC into the Savage XS and tested it around the garden. Soldered Deans connectors onto 3 packs of Turnigy 5000 nano-tech 35-70c batteries (they can just about squeeze into the Savage XS battery compartment!) Fitted ground assault tyres all around so it might get some traction! Washed and furniture polished the body shell. ... that's about it.

Noj Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 replaced a rear drive shaft on the Stampede, which annoyingly let go when testing the clutch setting yesterday!!!! Replaced one of the centre driveline yolks on the Maxx and gawped in amazement at the deformity to the old part Am about to tackle the Rustler - RPM rear shock tower (the original feels so flimsy) and the Slash steering bellcrank mod, the fit a heat sink and fan to the Slash, which will involve re-routing wiring oh, and the air is filled with the hum of 2 chargers happily filling up Lipos for the weekend Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TobyH Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 Made a new Spoiler and deflectors for the rear axle to stop crap getting on the drive shaft area. All made from Kydex which is brilliantly easy to use! Not sure how well the deflectors are going to work, but the original spoiler is so flimsy it cracked after only a couple of rolls. Will be looking to add a sheet under the chassis to give it a bit more protection and stiffen it a bit. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DreXeL Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 (edited) Installed a larger pinion to my e-muggy, and also installed some motor fan/heatsinks, and gave the electrics a general tidy up Edited January 21, 2012 by DreXeL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TobyH Posted January 22, 2012 Share Posted January 22, 2012 cooling? It was a toss up between cooling and hitting the motor and spur gear. I've already got a chunk out of the motor, and the spur is open to the same thing. The ESC has a fan on it and the motor has fins in its design. I've put some holes in the shell to add a little cooling but perhaps some more may be required. I've seen plenty of other chassis bottoms with no holes in so am pretty confident it'll be ok. I've not 'tuned' it much either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
