n_d_fox Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 Those bearings should just about hold up Nice little delivery you got there too... typical that you installed the new locker just before the HD gears turned up ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.AJ.

.AJ. Posted March 15, 2014 Author Share Posted March 15, 2014 The Alturn servo is just horrid, no way it's 21kg, the 17kg Power HD I had in her first had loads more torque! Looks like its a duff one or Alturn lied about the specs, what a waste of Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex97 Posted March 15, 2014 Share Posted March 15, 2014 Have a look at this http://www.modelsport.co.uk/savox-sw0231mg-waterproof-high-torque-std-metal-gear-digital-servo/rc-car-products/377022, I used it in my st4 and it was very good for the money.

Lumalee Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 Just read the whole thread in one go, great read AJ and many a tip has been gathered. Not been in the hobby long and got two Wraiths , one each for me and my lad, done some of the upgrades using TopCad and some Asia tees stuff, guess I enjoy the outdoors bit more than tinkering but its a fine balance as I have enjoyed doing the mods. My lads seems to keep busting the HD servo, backed the travel off to 65 % on the radio as didnt check it previously and installed new one, this will be the third !! will see how it goes. Love your build and thoroughly enjoyed the read. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
