.AJ. Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 Took mine out for a run today, it was cut short by a busybody council worker who gave it the old “you can’t run that here” rubbish, I didn’t even get a chance to get a vid, but I was more than happy with my gearing 17/46 on 4s, i was probably getting around 50mph ish.... Fingers crossed I’ll get out again this week and I’ll make sure there’s no mini Hitlers about lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
masch.tab Posted October 2, 2018 Share Posted October 2, 2018 My full bearing sets have arrived from Jim's Bearings in the USA. I'll be tearing both E-Revo's apart soon and replacing them all. Got a set for the Arrma Typhon at the same time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris_torx Posted October 2, 2018 Share Posted October 2, 2018 ive been neglecting my revo since i pulled the threads out rear bulkhead, rear body tower mount and bent both rear shock shafts. but i finally got round to ordering the new plastic bits and got a steal on ebay for 4 as new shocks which are the upgraded bodies and ti nitrate shafts. put thicker diff fluid in front and rear, thicker shock oil and stiffer springs. got it all back together with longer bolts going through the shocks to bulkhead as the old bolts didn't reach to the end of threads in bulkhead. diffs and suspension travel feels much smoother and more resistant to landing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tug Posted October 2, 2018 Share Posted October 2, 2018 Good point, I've got longer bolts in my V1 shocks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kpowell911 Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 How you all getting on with yours? Im still waiting on the new springs, but Ive not even used mine haven't had the time. I literally just checked the Lipos were still in condition haha. Its such a stunning looking RC! Ive still got all the upgrades in the same place on the table as when I laid them out for the photo!

.AJ. Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 Not run mine lately, same as you, I’m flat out at work, but I’ve got a week off for half term soon and a mate has just bought a Outcast so I’ll get out then hopefully ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tomzac66 Posted October 14, 2018 Share Posted October 14, 2018 Finished the dual servo set up, was really simple to set up You went with the duel set up, any reason you avoided the single setup ??Are they a straightforward swap or any fettling needed. Did you use a Bec ??? Cheers Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.AJ. Posted October 14, 2018 Share Posted October 14, 2018 I already had one of the servos, so it worked out cheaper to get another than one mega spec servo. There’s no BEC, the one in the Max 8 is plenty good enough, the installation was straight forward 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomzac66 Posted October 14, 2018 Share Posted October 14, 2018 That’s your call, Ive got a couple really good servos that I could fit, this is probaly the most suitable... http://www.rcmart.com/holmes-hobbies-230100006-hv500v2-brushless-high-voltage-36kg-servo-p-75380.html?cPath=1099_103 Or this one , or possibly a pair https://www.rprcdistribution.com/product-page/srt-cl6023-lv-coreless-waterproof-servoI bet that servo would fit the UDR.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tomzac66 Posted October 14, 2018 Share Posted October 14, 2018 Yea it would [emoji106] When my Savox gives up that’s next on the list then. After a bit of reading this will fit as well SRT CL6023 but at 6v I wouldn’t need a bec. Choices choices. [emoji41] The waterproof savox draw to much current, they had issues with some ESC’s.

Kpowell911 Posted October 14, 2018 Share Posted October 14, 2018 One month into ownership I decided to fit some parts. Still waiting on the Silver front shock springs.I didnt take a pic of the wheelie bar, but its on there trust me!Blue Springs, 70wt oil, Yeah Racing Alloy M3 Rod ends thread locked on. Traxxas alloy rear chassis brace. The 2.0 seems to have a plastic one anyway so didnt really need this?Twin Power HD 23kg Servos with Alloy Horns. Still need 2x M3 nuts to capture the screw ends. Got them centralised. I never normally bother with twin servo set ups, Im sure one is enough but they were on offer on RC Mart so picked up a pairI did buy enough Alloy Rod ends to do the Suspension Linkages, but If Im honest Im too hungover to changed them today! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

willb Posted October 15, 2018 Author Share Posted October 15, 2018 (edited) Was out with my Revo the other day but something happened. It drives along fine but when you floor it from the off, there is a nasty grinding sound. Hoping to pull it apart later on if I get time. Anyone have any idea what could be up? Fearing a diff...

masch.tab Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 Diffs are pretty strong in the 2.0. Could it not just be some stones caught up behind the skid plate for the centre driveshaft? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tug Posted October 16, 2018 Share Posted October 16, 2018 Check the slipper, could be loose, but wouldn't normally make a grinding sound. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
