Slugsie Posted August 10, 2012 Share Posted August 10, 2012 Took mine out for a spin last night to test some new batteries. Some work well, some not so good (3rd hand LIPOs that may well be past their useful working life unfortunately). Also looks like I still haven't fixed my problem with losing rear wheel drive. Play was ended when the pinion gear came loose - at least I hope that is what happened. Still, while everything was working it was just awesome running it on 2S over open bumpy grass. More fun and stable than my Slash 4x4 if I'm honest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slugsie Posted August 14, 2012 Share Posted August 14, 2012 Have you got them front and rear? Do they remove the slop at all? Where from? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smash Posted August 14, 2012 Share Posted August 14, 2012 I've got the full set, loads less slop than stock but i still put a thin shim in to take up what was still there, got mine from liquid rc.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.AJ. Posted August 14, 2012 Author Share Posted August 14, 2012 I've only got the rears at the moment, I also got them from liquid rc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt B Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 Looking good guys! I've now got one of these after having a go of AJ's, and I've been getting to grips with how it goes - it's just mad! I quite like the stock motor, it runs with more than enough pace on a fully charged 2s pack, and on the half-dead 3s pack I tried it was insane! The rear diff cup is really worn on this one with it being used though, so I'll see if one of the older style RS4 diff cups I've got fit (once I've got the Rustler back up north to pinch them off) and I'll report back with how it goes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
