Useful video, thanks.  Can I ask what fan that is attached to the engine?  I don't have one, is it essential or just a nice to have?

Happy to help, it's a cheap generic (36mm/ 540 size) one off eBay, we've got them fitted to both our mt10s but fit them to all our cars especially in the summer, they are very useful to have especially if you're running 3s

Hey all,

 

Brand new MT10 owner here, came from an SCX24 crawler so bit of a difference in speed 😀

Out of the box I replaced the servo with an ecoboost along with Fastrax servo arm, RPM front/rear arms, gorilla taped the shell, Traxxas Foam Body Washers (outside and inside), Arrma body clips (rubber retainer ones).

Running on Overlander 3s lipo so she rips with a FlySky GT5 and have SVC/gyro turned on although reasonably low.

 

Good day ripping in the woods not far away, plenty of space in a big valley, kids have built dirt jumps etc, plenty of cartwheels, iffy landings, didn't manage to hit anything head on thankfully, one wheel stopped turning and we realised there was a small pine cone jammed in it 😆

Little'un (Six) managed to take himself out, don't think it was full speed but took him straight off his feet and landed belly first, few tears, dirty knees and elbows but laughed it off fairly quickly.

 

From my inspection all I can see is all four sway bar/anti roll joints had come off the arms, easily popped back on but anything better to keep them in place or they designed to 'pop' if under extreme load.

I think the battery straps could be longer, I might glue the hex nuts to the wheels, the hair net is a PITA to get on but probably does a half decent job, other than had about an hours blast with the two batteries 😁

I've still got the scar on my shin from trying to video the car on my phone on a tripod and drive it hard at the same time - nearly fainted it hurt so much!  And I'm way old enough to know better 🙂  Glad you're enjoying the MT10, I love mine...
