Hope you don't mind, Jboucher but I took your idea of using the Holmes Revolver 350 and paired it with a Mamba Micro X (crawler edition but turns out thats mostly just marketing ... and bigger bullet connectors lol). Man it runs PERFECT. Exactly how I want it to run. And that's before I've even got the Castle Link so I can fine tune it a bit more. I do get what you mean about the noise. The motors do emit this pitch that I have never heard before in a brushless motor. I don't mind it at all though for the low throttle resolution. Thanks man! |

I did! And temps are perfectly fine so far (120F-ish max using a IR thermometer). Just a heads up it comes with tiny bullet connectors (2mm?) not the standard 3.5. And the Mamba Micro X comes with 4mm lol. [edit] I should caveat though that I dont really use this for rock crawling. I use this as a surface FPV platform just to drive around the park and have fun. My Yeti Jr is heavier than most since its carrying a Runcam Split HD camera, video transmitter, OSD, GPS, and even a torn down walkie talkie receiver lol. Yes, I have 3 frequencies either broadcasting or receiving on this little thing LOL. Last edited by the.ronin; 11-01-2019 at 10:42 AM. |

That sucks about the shocks, did anyone think of using 1:10th scale shocks (90mm) like the proline dualrates. that is probably what i will use for the rear and stock for the front | |

No need for complex designs The stock trailing arms and A-Frame rear link is fine for speed runs. The hot racing trailing arms and real 4-link uppers are best for Crawling and trails. Boom done Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk |

Mine is still the same as it was 2 years ago Never broke more than 1 front wheel shaft and 2 open diffs until I went full lock front and rear. My issue is the body. My old rock racer body is beaten to death (4 year old son drives it) and I can't find any replacement. The new maverick Can-am body dosent fit either... Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk |

I put a newbright Polaris body on my original yeti Jr score. I'd pick up another score truck if anyone has one to let go of
