Its about 0.2v out and I can't get it to level out with the other cell. So time to treat myself to some new lipos, 2s and 3s ready for when I get the Arrma Outcast. So any recommendations on Lipos?? 0.2v.....nothing to worry about imo dude...0.5v or more I'd worry Edited December 28, 2017 by evssv 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

novamadcars Posted December 29, 2017 Share Posted December 29, 2017 I have just finished putting my hpi rush evo back together after months of it sitting in the loft in pieces. Hopefully today at some point me and my son can take it on a test run. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ghazghul Posted December 29, 2017 Share Posted December 29, 2017 Cleaned up desert truck and removed large amounts of countryside from it. Found diff. is all notchy. Pulled it apart, cleaned greased and reassembled and it's still no good. Sure I have another one about somewhere.... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

everclear1984 Posted December 30, 2017 Share Posted December 30, 2017 Spent most of last night and this morning completely tearing down, cleaning and rebuilding 2x Turnigy SCT's I recently acquired. Managed to build 1 very clean car and one spares car from the parts. Just waiting on new diff internals before posting it in the sales section 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nr73 Posted December 30, 2017 Share Posted December 30, 2017 Spent the last couple of hours going through a slash 2wd I recently bought off here. Have given it a general tidy up, adjusted the shock positions, replaced the noisy Titan 21t motor with a spare I had, stuck a Flysky 2.4 Rx in there and soldered a Deans connector onto the XL5 ESC. Will be going brushless soon on it if it runs ok but just wanted to check how the gearbox and servo perform and whether there are any misc problems. Just charging a lipo up then will give it a spin hopefully! Seems to be on the speed gearing 23/86 and the grub screw is rounded so I fully expect the pinion to halt play. Will be replacing with a 16/90 anyway for general bashing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisT Posted December 30, 2017 Share Posted December 30, 2017 Finally fitted the 'C' parts received from Tony's which allowed me to fit the front damper on the Thundershot. Only parts C4 & C6 were required. Also fitted the BZ motor Haven't run this at full chat yet but gave it a blip on the carpet at home with an 8.4 nimh, and my god can't wait to get this out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mo_miah Posted December 31, 2017 Share Posted December 31, 2017 Whats the foam on the motor for? Wont it cause it to run hot? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's for keeping all the dirt/stones away from the end, it's got little micro chippy things all over it lol Doubt it will make a difference in temps, it's very thin and breathable. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm assuming that's a bank of tiny caps to reduce rf frequency noise etc .....must be better absorption compared to the older ceramic type?

Zannu Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 Followed the usual pattern with my rc's. Bashed it and broke it. Spot what is wrong here: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nr73 Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 Had a nice little first bash with my newly acquired Slash 2wd just to work out where the problems are. Put two packs through it with zero issues, temps are fine, was good fun despite it only having the stock brushed motor. Also having been away from RC for a while I had to bring my skills back up to speed, so inevitably there were a few high speed impacts but the slash took them all with no breakages. Impressive!
