I spoke to Arthur just Now, about what's Next?! We agreed to focus on developing component that will significantly increase Performance Capability.
So secretive, lol. Spill it!

Can't wait til I get my brass. Just installed a link riser to help keep the nose down, these portal covers will really help the cause. Great work.

Just stumbled across that housing the other day and didn’t realize it was yours. Nice work!

Got some of that brass on the way too.

I really like Vitavon parts, they have all been excellent and in my opinion better than most other aftermarket parts for my Baja Rey at least. I have the trailing arms, front a-arms, transmission and they are of excellent quality. I finally managed to locate an out of production (Novak) 9 tooth 5mm mod 1 pinion for my Baja Rey and am installing the transmission this week. I will for sure be getting the transmission for the Capra as well, thankfully 9 tooth pinions in 32 pitch are easier to find!!

I used the Hardware included, they are Good Quality. Please use them.

And please DO NOT over-tighten (Gorilla Strength) each screw while Assembling. I did each screw a bit loose, turned the output shaft, and you can feel the bearings sit nice and gears aligned as housing is put together. The dig, 2 wheel and 4 wheel runs smooth - yes it really does!

Then gently tighten each screw, making sure there is no bind in 4WD, 2WD. and the Dig Works as you move dig shaft forward, mid, and rear. This must be bind free, as well. Then we can use threadlock, so no need to over-tighten. ENJOY!

NEXT: Installing in the Model then do a Quick Test.

Tried posting my thread this morning, from the website, but it indicated I "exceeded the character limitation" (I've never seen that before). Either going to have to try breaking it up into multiple posts, or post via TapTalk.

There is a nice selection of new release the past months.

Why the Axial Racing Capra 1.9 Unlimited Trail Buggy?
Why do Many LOVE this "petite version" of the RR10 Bomber?!

Well, EVERYTHING is Great! Especially the All New Competition Drivetrain!

We believe that Heart of the Capra's High Performance Drivetrain is the NEW Low CG Transmission with 4WD + 2WD + dig Capabilities, and the decision to Go Portal Axles! The Capra is Not just a Re-hash, but a well thought-out and planned/ executed 1.9 Unlimited Trail Buggy! Low Kit Price is the Bonus.

I Honestly believe that, All we need is to go for quality beadlock wheels + rubbers , and ESC + Motor + HD Servo + motor pinion + Quality Lipo. There is a good selection of-the-shelf, offered at a very attractive price*.

Why Go Vitavon Racing Development Components?
If you find a need to increase Performance Capability & Reliability to Enjoy more Driving your Favourite Capra.

Again, Many Thanks for your Interest and Support!

REVIEW:

Managed to Assemble the Transmission. All internal Kit Components (Shafts and Gear) installed. Please pay attention to how pieces fir back together. Silly me had to spend over 30 minutes to figure-out how motor mount, internal gears, and cover. I should have just be guided by user manual.

I used the all included Hardware. Re-sued 2 flathead hex screws to secure dig cover. Patiently assemble & fasten all screws by hand tool, loosely. Use of Power Drivers NOT recommended. Turned F/R outputs to make bearings sit proper and gear mesh nicely, dig shaft smooth push and pull as well. I remember many years back that when the dig control shaft binded, it causing servo to burn - we were using standard size servo. The Good News, the Capra design is AWESOME! With the Capra VRD Aluminium Transmission Housing precision machined, gets 4WD + 2WD + Dig to work flawless and works from 9T-14T to fine tune vis-a-vis your personal preference for ESC and especially Motor Wind.

AGAIN: Please do not over-tighten each screw, as you assemble. Unlike the stock plastic, HD aluminium housing will not flex to allow the bearings to sit nicely, gears to mesh precisely, and shaft, especially the dig control shaft to properly align and move push and pull smoothly. Once all screws are fastened loosely, rotate. by hand front and rear outputs, and slide dig shaft forward, mid, and back to check that dig engages, 2WD and 4WD, as well.


NEXT: Yes I've installed it in the model, and will power-up to make sure everything works flawless, just to reconfirm. Give you guys an update! THANKS!

Oh yeah, waiting on my Brass Portals Covers. Arthur has been busyy shipping-out orders, the past few days/night. Thank you!

And Yeah, We would LOVE to see Pictures of your Vitavon Powered Capra, read your comment or questions, regarding Vitavon Products Custom Design RACE Components for the 1.9 Axial Racing Capra 1.9 Unlimited Trail Buggy, Right HERE.

Again Thanks for your Interest & Support, Cheers!
