Revo V Curb......

NAAAAAAA your all over reacting looks like front bulks and ,maybe some steering parts more of a ball ache than anything else.

mine it a curb after it just pitched into second once but jkust the front wheel thi the corner so it launched up 4 feet did a dodgey flippy roly spin and landed T**S up bust knuckle is all.

Estimate for the damage £40 most (unless you got unlucky and did servos in then £60) and a good few hours! :good:

Thanks for the replies, I was er going flat out, and the road I was aiming got too narrow....well that's what I keep telling myself :)

I've not started pricing things up yet, get paid on Tue, so will do it then :) The chassis is slighly bent up, which I can straighten. The servos / diff appears to have survived, so v lucky.

The parts I will need looks like :

the plastic part that holds the diff, also the wishbones link into this part

Wishbone pivot pin

the small piece of metal that was a skid plate I assume

1 parts that the servo link to in the middle to turn the wheels

Possibly 1 rocker, if I can't drill out a screw that sheared.

Think I will start looking through the exploded diagrams over a pint tonight to ease the pain :)

i crashed my rush evo into a kerb, luckily we fixed it for less than £20!!!

but that looks nasty lol

Some reason... when i hit kerbs its pops off the ball cap pop off and i loose a little bit of steering...

the long term are the front arm screw cant grip and the servo starts to shread the horn :)

but nasty mate

All part of the hobby :)

Cant Revo's climb up kerbs?

not flat out Ben, its like driving your dads car up a breeze block ;) - think... kerbs are higher than the centre of a revo's wheel, so its gunner get stuck rather than bounce up :P

The damaged parts - 1 wishbone is slightly damaged, but have left on for moment. Good fun rebuilding it, really easy to work on, well done Traxxas.
