First AX10 and Looking for some suggestions

[Wheel_Works]

Well Got a slightly used Ax10 from my Uncle, went down with the Tri City Crawlers for afternoon and then did a bunch of surfing on here.
When I got it it stock mostly stock form

After a few mods it will twist up pretty good




Has a Novak Rooster Crawler and 55 Turn Novak Motor combo, AE 1015 Servo, Spectrum 3C System, Bent Lower Links, TCS 4 link plate on the rear, TCS Battery plates on the front axle, Hot Racing Skid plate
I have the TCS Internal Medium spring kit. Should I run them in droop or Not?
How does my link placement look? Just looking for some suggestions from your guys experience with these things.
Thanks,
Rich

to much suspension travel can hinder performance. Rig will tie itself in a knot if one wheel drops in a hole. Better tires such as rovers or chisels will make a huge difference over the rock lizards. Driveshaft rings will help keep the yokes from coming apart

change out the tires to the hb sedonas or rovers link palcement looks alright if you stay with the setup that you have

get rid of that plastic geared servo that wont last long

[theloudone]

Thanks guys
NO plastic geared servo on there. Actually pretty capable servo DS1015 Hi Torque/Hi Speed Digital Servo: Team Associated - Champions By Design - Nitro and Electric RC Cars came out of my race truck

wow tell me you didn't pay $150 for that servo!! anyway, tire change will be the most noticable. you have way to much suspension travel. need to 4 link the front end. aluminum c hubs and knuckles as the stock plastic one's are weak.

with the stock chassis, you can only go so far. if your serious and wanna run an ax10, look into a better chassis. made more difference on mine than i could explain.

Pd $100.00 for the servo new. Worked great in my race truck, sold all my race trucks and it was still kicking around so I decided to use it. Actually works great.
Tires will be very soon, along with Aluminum C, Hi Steer hubs and rear lock. Dont wanna be a Pro rock Crawler, just have a capable rig to hang out with buddies with
