I'm thinking there needs to be a specific forum for HSP Pangolin, Redcat Everest, and Exceed Maxstone 10 rigs. They all are identical rigs and there are quite a few posts randomly placed in multiple forums. Anybody know what it would take to get a moderator to create another forum? |

Does pretty good gonna order a 20t motor today needs alot more wheel speed, made my own 4link lower mount to bolts to the stock one so i don't have any fitment issues due to the thickness also filled up the shocks with more oil seemed to help out quite a bit with the torque twist, i see tractor tires in my near future lol |

I like the Blazer body on it. Getting rid of the stock body is one of the best upgrades for a E10, after chucking the turd of a motor. All I need to build another one is a tranny, tranny plate and a set of links. I'm thinking I may need a mudder now Finished up my daughters foo-foo colored Chevy body tonight. I'll get some pic's posted so everyone can have a good chuckle. Looks like a friggin Easter egg but she loves it Scored me a bunch of hugs and the best dad in the world award for a couple of days anyway |

As promised, the Redcat FOOFOO 10 Added 3/4" tubing to the shocks and I think the flex seems about right. Not as cartoonish as it was stock. I hated drilling holes in it for the lights, but the kiddo had to have turn signals and all that goes with em. |

Made some through the hood headers and also cut some lugs on the stock tires till i can get some different ones, already smoked the stock motor in it due to not enough wheel speed and too much peanut butter mud but i got a rc4wd 20t on the way |

I run a 12 tooth pinion with a 27T and a 2s Lipo. Seems to be plenty low geared. It will slow crawl like crazy. In my opinion a 12 tooth should be about right on your 20T. If you find a spur that fits let me know. So far mine is holding up, but I'm sure it'll let go at the worst time. |

And in case your wondering, I'm still running the solid rod buggy chassis I built from scrap, added a 20t motor, DNA assassin wheels with cut boggers and wideners, everything else is bone stock.... And I, or the grand kids, or my friends... have yet to break even a single part on it! These things are tough!! Last edited by VoodooSteve; 04-14-2015 at 08:20 AM. Reason: Add. | |

I know what you're sayin. When I mention the E10 people jump right to bashing on it, but it is a great rig for the money. My daughters is bone stock except for modified lockers and a 25T motor, and she beats the snot out of that poor thing and it hasn't missed a beat! Mine doesn't really count any more because I've reworked the whole truck, but not a single Redcat part that's left on it has given a bit of trouble except for a servo that was creating a goofy glitch. $15 on ebay for another one and back to thrashing it. Wish I'd bought an extra one when they were 135 bucks! |
