So uh anyway to slow this thing down? AX10 DB RTR
 

I bought an AX10 Deadbolt RTR and put a venom 5400mah 2S 20C in it.

The speed and throttle control is fine for me but its going to be to much if I want to let my kids learn and play with it. They are 3 and 6.

Is there anyway to limit the throttle on it, because I sure would like to let them play and not destroy it.

Program the throttle curve with a castle link if your running the ae2 esc. Or drop your pinion size down a few teeth

They come with a 20 turn motor stock. Can replace with a higher turn motor. Like a 35 turn or even a 55 turn.

Can you explain the castle link a little more?

Castle Creation castle link allows you to program castle creation ESC .

I like this idea too. It's supposed to be a crawler. It doesn't need that kind of top end.

Buy a new radio with Throttle end points.
Then turn the end points down. That will limit the trigger to
0-100%
So say you turn it down half way.
then the squeezing the trigger all the way will give you %50 throttle.
Tuen it down more you get 25% ect ect.

That would be the easiest way to go from fast to slow without taking it all apart.

Also sounds like the most expensive. I picked up a 35T motor, I'll start there and then re gear if needed. I will keep the different TX in mind for future builds though.

Change the motor, problem solved

Hi, I am running a 35turn Novak Terra Claw and its ALOT slower, but the torque is great!!! :mrgreen::mrgreen::mrgreen:

Added the same motor. Novak 35t. Excellent speed for crawling and my kids. I'm happy!

Don't replace the motor unless gearing-down isn't good enough. Gearing-down converts the motor's power into torque, which is useful when crawling, whereas a higher-turn motor has higher electrical resistance, thus lower power throughput, thus it's a weaker motor overall -- which *isn't* useful when crawling. The sole exception is if you keep cooking lower-turn motors even with the lowest gearing you can get -- then you really do need a higher-turn motor.
