You can get the Traxxas pins in 15mm length or 13mm. It's likely the shorter that don't stick out as mine do not Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

IT'S ALIVE again. Have to finish up cleaning up the wiring but I am back in business. Waiting to hear about my new 13t HH500 Puller from JRH himself. |

Rig is looking great John. Wish I could have made it out to run some with you, but family things needed taken care of.

| Re: Wish I was a prodigy, but now I can drive one. Well, I'm getting all the bugs out for Nationals. Over looking my practice area at St. Peter's Village. Today I toasted a stock Spur gear, most likely my fault or all the Torque I get from my Br00d LE motor or both. I talked to several members and bought both the 32P and 48P spur gears. I have never run the 32P so we will see how I like them. My local hobby shop has really stepped it up in the past year and is starting to carry things I need and will now order whatever I ask for. Two years ago they only carried go fast stuff and did not even stock alum servo horns. So here is the refresh. Now to get back out there! |

More bugs. Loctite it your friend , I am glad I am getting wheel time in right now. I changed the oil in the shocks to 60wt from 35wt. It is slower than I am use to but feels more predictable. The new spur and pinion combo with the 35T motor feels quicker but I have not noticed a drop in torque which is good. I moved the drag link up one hole in the Robotronics arm and the servo is much happier, running much cooler now. I stood the shocks up a bit but I feel like I lost some of the sidehilling I had so I am going to be laying them back down a bit. Testing one change after another takes time but it is paying off. |

| Re: Wish I was a prodigy, but now I can drive one. Went out to two local spots today Ringing Rocks in Pottstown and Green Lane Park. I have not run my Leopards in a long time so I wanted to compare them to my narrowed VOODOO. I have always loved the Leopards, but the narrowed VOODOO bite and grip much better. Everything held together today. Should be getting that 3D printed skid tomorrow from Turbo Tech, more info on that to come. Last edited by Jslick; 07-16-2014 at 09:24 PM. |

| Re: Wish I was a prodigy, but now I can drive one. Testing out spare ECS and RX. I may be down but I'm not out yet. I'll have to wait until tomorrow to see if the other electronics are ok. Keeping my fingers corssed. Figures I just bought a new Microsidewinder and servo and they go for a swim. This is the first time that has ever happened to me. |

Should be ok, all of our local spots are by water, we dunk our rigs far too often, the sidewinder micros I just switched out were several years old and had been dunk atleast a half dozen times. If you get the battery unplugged immediately and let errythang dry before plugging it back up more often than not they come alive.

For sure. It was hard to watch! I'm running micro sidewinders in both my pros. Water resistant is just another reason to stick with them. I'm sure you will be good J. I'll be up around noon. Txt me with an update. I got out of work |

Brian had one on his rig at RI and at the NENQ. It seemed to slide well and felt better then delrin. (My fingers aren't rocks tho) I am looking forward to what you think of the skid. A great option for a lighter, Slichter skid! Last edited by winnerone23; 07-18-2014 at 02:30 PM. |
