| Re: Axial 1/18 Yeti (and Yeti Score)
Here is a pic of mine with the Traxxas Latrax wheels,and mini rival tires,the added width,and traction helped tremendously, the hex hole on my wheels are tapped out to m4,so I can use my RC4WD wideners when my body shows up. It looks good with the TT body,but the tires look wide when looking underneath,but performance,over looks 1st!That's the servo saver I use for the mg90 servo,they have more than enough power,no need to spend alot on servos,and to ease up any binding in the steering rack,just back the screw out on the rack assembly,you'll feel it loosen up!

Me likey! I considered that when i couldn't find a scale looking tire short enough. But there's that "what if i screw em up and they look like crap" side of me that has always kept me from cut'n up good tires. |

Traxxas LaTrax gears DO NOT work. They are a different size, different pitch, etc. I've got metal lockers coming very soon though. |

Ok guys, I have read this entire thread and I am still having a hard time deciding if this setup would be a decent option. I know there was talk of motor diameter and this is on the smaller side, but after looking at the mamba micro x it looks to be the same diameter. Any input on a budget brushless system would be much appreciated. https://www.amainhobbies.com/hobbywi...030010/p279160 Sent from my SM-G935V using Tapatalk Last edited by microracer42; 02-03-2017 at 05:37 PM. |

I think that motor may be a little anemic. I ran a 24mm motor and it did fine. Too many kV for me so I put the brushed back in and ordered a 24mm low kV to try. A 28mm motor will fit but be aware the longer can ones may cause problems. | |

Ok, that's what I thought. I'm on the hunt for a decent brushless combo for less than $50. If I can't find anything I guess I'll just go with the mamba. Sent from my SM-G935V using Tapatalk |

Here's the motor I'm going to try out in a 3000kV flavor. http://m.banggood.com/Racerstar-2445...p-1116661.html |

That looks like it might fit the bill. Waterproof, 2-3s capable, and the price is right. Sent from my SM-G935V using Tapatalk |

Awesome , how does it compare to the castle system? I see it's slightly higher higher kv. Also I can't seem to find that combo on the hw page. Last edited by Dsss; 02-05-2017 at 01:09 PM. |

Now my TT was completely different. It had zero issues with tight steering and in fact, I'm still running the stock servo in it. | |
