Bump

so the originals the rear prop plastic outer shattered in to a million pieces. The first set of after market ones sheard a pin in the cv joint and the 2nd set is Fastrax FTAX23 - Fastrax Axial Hd Universal Driveshafts (2) Honcho/Dingo ** CLEARANCE ** | Axial SCX10 Dingo Spares | Wheelspin Models and the cv joint has fallen apart on these.,

Evening all, My lads mauler is killing center drive shafts, running stock with hsp diff gears, 1080 esc and a 2s lipo. Stock shafts, after market ones none seem to last more then a pack or two. My lads only 7 and ita frustrating he can run it around the garden with out center shaft issues. Does any one have any bullet proof shafts that will fit?

As per title, I'm after a losi mrx 3100 brushed esc/reciver combo from a losi micro. The dsm version to work with a spektrum. As above I'd take any spares or complete cars too Cheers

As above I'm after a pair of chassis plates for and old wild dagger project I want to convert back to standard The chassis will fit the following 57727: RTR Mighty Bull 57729: RTR Over Lander 57825: RTR Blackfoot III 57839: RTR Mud Blaster II 57840: RTR Bush Devil II 58231: Wild Dagger 58309: Twin Detonator - TL01/TL01B Twin Motor 58312: Blackfoot Xtreme - WT-01 58366: Double Blaze 58396: Dualhunter 58498: Blackfoot III - WT-01 58514: Mud Blaster II - WT-01 58523: Bush Devil II - WT-01 58603: Volkswagen Amarok - WT01 Custom Lift

Absolutely, I have metal ones front and rear on both diffs. I'm actually tempted to see if I can replace the pins with bolts. Here's my 13 year old resto mod (Niton to brushless conversion) which I have just finished

time wise id say 20 minutes each is about correct, plan on changing the gearing from 17tooh to 19tooh as I'm still experimenting, its got back of acceleration but runs out of puff quite quick. its also constantly scrabbling for grip. so hopefully a bigger pinion should give a little better top end. cheers

I have a axial ryft that I bought some gens ace harce case 3s lipos, 4500mah 40c. The ryft has a Spektrum Firma 130A esc. The batteries are fine in this truck temperatures are not excessive. I have just relifed my trophy truggy 4.6 with a scream 1965kv and an 80 amp rage esc, I checked one of the hard case lipos in for the first test run and I'm massively impressed with the truck. However when the lipo cut off kicked in the battery was much warmer, I don't want to say hot, but compared to the ryft it's much hotter. By my calculations the gens ace are 180amp so should be fine in the truggy? I also have some trunigy 5000mah 20-30c batteries which I calculate as 100amp, now these do not fit the ryft but I mounted the battery Box on the truggy to suit these batteries. Am I correct in saying they will be good for the truggy? Cheers

See I knew this, but it's so simple instated doubting my self.

So I am resurrecting my told trophy truggy 4.6 with a brushless conversion, my new rage esc came today and it has a y harness on it. While this may be a daft question, if I want to run it with a single battery do I just make a jumper cable for on of the inputs? Cheers

Not sure mate, standard 4.6 size 😄

As per the title I am resurrecting my trophy truggy 4.6 with a brushless conversion. I have got my hands on a FluxRage 80amp Esc Scream 1965KV Brushless motor from ebay, I have the motor mount, however I'm after advice on pinion? I'm planning on using the nirto center diff (unsure if this matters) Also a simple batter holder would be useful Cheers

Unfortunately i have tried this. There is no epa on the controller it came with. I'm guessing the combined esc/reciver is dead. It's just a pain that it works apart from reverse. It's not the end of the world his birthday is coming up end if this month, and he wants 4ws so I have a new raido set and esc for his gift so we can set that up. He will just have to make do until then unless any one had any ideas.

Hay all, My lad got a mauler for Christmas's, and he loves it. However today it's decided to only have forward. It will no longer go in to reverse. All the controller trims done effect it. Is there any thing else it could be? Cheers

Any one have an adjustable front steering arm? I reckon the car would benefit from an ammout of tow in on the front end. Much say this car is the best fun I've had in a long time. Absolutely love the ryft,

morning all, Im looking at a small not crap RC Car for my 7 Year old lad to bash around the house. He has an FTX Mauler he is getting the hang of but that's been banned from the house my SHMBO due to how filthy it is. with his birthday coming up i have been thinking about the FTX Hooligan JNR are they any good, is there any mods that can be done to them, what's the battery life like? cheers

After several uses on mine i have ended up locking both the center and rear diff and have 500000 cst oil in the front, its a much better truck for it. cheers

So today i added a power hd servo, its from my 4ws maverick scout, its sister servo died and I had this one lying around. The difference is night and day coupled with the new servo saver. It has magnified how give the tyre have in their side wall. A gentle reminder this truck is not for high speed bashing. Does any one have dimensions for beef tubes at all? Wanting to make some if possible??

Good morning all I have a question on noisy gear box's since I had the Ryft i have noticed the gear box is very noisy, I stripped out the motor and gear box, and the noise is coming from the mesh between the spur gear and the main gear, i couldn't get them to mesh any better so i added some Teflon grease and carried on. a couple of packs later and the noise is back. its only off load, if I i am using the truck its all seems fine. is this usual or should I pull the box again and re inspect? on an separate not I'm tempted to lock the rear diff and only have the front as it is. cheers

So replace the front link, only have spare bent ones so used what I had. I have ordered some straight. However the rears have loads and loads of slop in them, it's obvious the eye is ovaled. Is it worth sticking aluminium arms on? Or will this cause other issues?

What cheapish servos do people recommend? Also I guess what servo saver?

Quick video of the accident that ended it all. 20230114_133131.mp4

So picked some 3s batteries up yesterday which are awesome. Took the truck out for a bash at a local national Trust place called carding Mill Valley. Love the truck it's a blast, need to lower the center of gravity however. I think the stock servo saver has died on me because under minor bind the servo can go lock to lock with out moving the wheels. I have an lst one the way though. Also broke a front link on the arm. Can't wait to get this fixed and back out. Its such a blast.

Kinda embarrassing, took the ryft out today up in too the woods with my lad and his ftx mauler. He asked what all the knobs and switch did on the spektrum controller, it was then I found the throttle limiter switch 🤣🤣🤣🤣 So much more fun with 100% throttle. One of my 2s lipos however had balloned while in use, so that's destin for the scrap heap.

gota ask whats a slow hub?
