Charging the batteries. These are the batteries I use - they are very good and I can only recommend them!

Mine did the same, replaced with longer screws and nuts, didnt like the look like that and went to solid STRC piece, much happier.

Re: Life of one YETI - Tom Frajer's Axial Yeti build log
 

Yes, I was looking at that STRC piece too ;)

Re: Life of one YETI - Tom Frajer's Axial Yeti build log
 

How much improvement you get with this?
I thought about but not sure.

Rear cage stifener? I think it is mainly about better look. Maybe it makes cage little bit stronger, but it is already strong anyway.

Re: Life of one YETI - Tom Frajer's Axial Yeti build log
 

So maybe I will have look at a green one[emoji4]

Do a twist test on the frame with stock then integy and then strc, theres a difference in strength for sure.
Replacing the stock battery strap with a C.F. one added even more, nominal difference but worth the price and adds nice finishing touches to the rig.
And yes. .. they look very cool in place.

Just broke last stock driveline piece, rear driveline, had integy cups and spline, lasted 3 months on 3 s , cant complain. MIP on the way from RPP.

Re: Life of one YETI - Tom Frajer's Axial Yeti build log
 

MIP is great. I have two, one in use and one spare. Does something similar for the front exist?

Re: Life of one YETI - Tom Frajer's Axial Yeti build log
 

Another two packs went well. One 3S followed by one 2S. Very hard bashing on the dusty road!

No damage to the Yeti, but my 3S battery wont charge. Seems like connection to one cell is interrupted completely... should I return it?

Short hubs arrived together with few parts for open rear diff. I definitely put shortest .225 hubs to the front and .350 to the rear. I also ordered new 3S battery and will send failed one for warranty replacement. I cannot run on 2S as it is booooooring. Now I use 2S to get to/from my bashing sites so I do not have to carry my heavy Yeti in my hand [emoji13]

Re: Life of one YETI - Tom Frajer's Axial Yeti build log
 

Supershafty had a kit specifically for the Bomber that had front and rear center shafts by MIP.

Re: Life of one YETI - Tom Frajer's Axial Yeti build log
