Re: Axial 1/18 Yeti (and Yeti Score) Which pinions work on the hobbywing motors? 2.3 traxxas? How many teeth should I gear it at? |
Re: Axial 1/18 Yeti (and Yeti Score) I installed a 2445 3000kV sensorless motor. It has a 2.3m shaft and the Losi Mini pinions have a smaller hole than the stock pinion. The stock pinion fit the 3000kV motor and it netted nearly stock speeds. So I dug around in my box of gears and found a 22tooth that fit. I had to file down the set screw so that it's clear the motor plate. It has good low speed and a fair amount of speed now. I'm happy with it. |

Re: Axial 1/18 Yeti (and Yeti Score) Yes, The first prototypes came in, but were very far off dimensionally from what they needed to be. I had them re-run them with the tweaks, and those were supposed to show up Friday, but didn't, USPS shows maybe today for delivery. I will probably have something to share tomorrow if these are dimensionally correct. |
Re: Axial 1/18 Yeti (and Yeti Score) Made some new trail with the Yeti Jr in mind- bigger berms! A lot less flipping. Moving the battery foward helped too. <iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/Z7dwLsCw6Z0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> My front ring and pinion is starting to slip under heave load, maybe a shim will help. I need to tear it open and check. |

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...psf7ssuaja.jpg I need to get these installed in the yeti and get some testing done to make sure there are no problems. I expect to start a pre-order thread very soon for these. Pricing will be discussed in the upcoming thread in the vendor's section, so please do not ask in this thread. |
Re: Axial 1/18 Yeti (and Yeti Score) Are there going to be axles to accompany that beauty? |
Re: Axial 1/18 Yeti (and Yeti Score) I need that. The open diff makes it really hard to do anything with my JR. |
Re: Axial 1/18 Yeti (and Yeti Score) Same here. I may just try some Silly Putty. |
Re: Axial 1/18 Yeti (and Yeti Score) Has anyone replaced the upper rear link with 2 links with balls on the end? I know it kinda acts as a natural sway bar, but I don't like the way when the axle rolls that it bends the tabs on the chassis where the link mounts. I'd like to replace all of the rear links with turnbuckles, I just wondered if anyone know of any that fit. |
Re: Axial 1/18 Yeti (and Yeti Score) Any updates Monkeyracer? I'm gonna crack open this rear axle and superglue everything if I can't get a locker soon. |

Re: Axial 1/18 Yeti (and Yeti Score) Lower links aren't exactly the first thing these things need. Where is the 2 piece front bulkhead to make pinion mesh less of a guess? Where are the metal diffs and axles/shafts? We need those things, not metal trading arms... though they are nice �� |
Re: Axial 1/18 Yeti (and Yeti Score) That's the easiest thing to make. |
Re: Axial 1/18 Yeti (and Yeti Score) Major problem with solid lower links, you wont get any articulation out of the rear. Currently the flex in the nylon links allow for the axle to articulate while also acting as a sway bar. You make that rigid and the only thing the rear axle can do is travel up/down. Careful buying those. Quote:

Re: Axial 1/18 Yeti (and Yeti Score) Seems like these are fading away. I run mine nearly daily for 10-15m but it's just because it's so small I leave it on the chest freezer in my garage. So it's right there for a quick spin around the driveway. All the hype before the reaease and the novelty is quickly waning. |
