Pretty much yes! Most will say it is one of the most capable out of the box. needs practically nothing modified. How ever there is a thread here you can search called "Biggest single upgrade"
That may help incase you are like most of us and can't leave anything stock!

Common, we need a backstory to this. You likely got a defective one, but at least tell a story like you got so pissed at your truck, you decided to fly it off the ledge.

Be careful and don't break anything.. Might be late May before you can fix anything.

I wish, I was driving gently to make sure it survived an entire battery. Since putting the scx102 axles on my scx, I haven't made a full pack yet. It's a 4s 5200, so a full pack is ~4+hrs, but still.



The replacement, that I bought, lasted through a similar 3hr crawl session.


RCmart still has not responded since I sent in pictures....

Just a tip if you guys want to remove any paint off these housings or the diff covers like me since I dislike red. Aircraft paint stripper works great. Spray on let soak for about 15-20 minutes and I scrubbed the paint off with a nylon brush in the sink.

With the addition of the xtraspeed diamond axles on my scx10ii c2 build, I was able to swap these babies onto my old scx10 c1 rig. I was amazed at how this thing performed and the appearance speaks for itself. Oh, and also got a new set of rubbers all around!

Finally killed one. Ordering two more, one for a spare. This one lasted through some stupid abuse, super impressed it lasted this long!

Interesting... It cracked along the same axis that mine did after a <2 hrs of run time.
It's close enough that I thought that was my picture...

I think they had a bad run of them. When I tried breaking the other 1/2 of my axle, it bent rather than broke.

Replacement axle has 20+hrs on it without issue.

I still have mines and are still rock solid. Those breaks definitely look like some defect. Since these are cast and from China, kinda expected for quality control. But hey, they are dirt cheap, just buy another.

So far mine are great. I can not believe how freely the axle spins now. They are truly like butter. I am very impressed at the quality for 19 shipped per axle.

Just jumped on the bandwagon for a pair of these, for the price, why not.

I've still got two of these axles laying around. Bought 4 to do both my trucks and so far only did the fronts and haven't needed the weight in the rear

That's a pretty good price for a complete axle. Looks pretty good too even though I'm not typically a fan of the fabricated/welded pieces pumpkin look.

Anybody run these yet? These, the portals, or the Spyder axle type are kinda ticking my fancy right now.
