| Saturday 2/9/13 trailing at the zoo
Hey guys, hope all is well. Just wanted to see if anyone would like to join us on Saturday morning for a little trail action at the zoo. Depending upon how many people would like to come out, we could meet at the Hilton on Greystone blvd and then carpool from there. Sorry meeting time will be 9am hopefully by then it won't be so cool, however I am open to anytime if you would like to start earlier. Let me know who's in. Thanks guys hope to see you then! Address for the Hilton 230 Greystone Blvd Columbia,SC Last edited by Ajppsc; 02-04-2013 at 07:01 PM. |

So I finally dug into my transmission and found 2 problems. First was my output shafts coming loose second was my idler gear flat spotting. Not to mention that a 3rd pinion bites the dust. Now it has eaten a 9, 10, and 11t. Sent from my Super Smart Smart phone using Midi-chlorians |

All I had was the gen 3 slipper with a 32p pinion and stock gears. I now have rr gears in it and a beefy top shaft on the way. Sent from my Super Smart Smart phone using Midi-chlorians |

No that was a 32p 9t pinion. I destroy them. I am going to order a .8 mod 10t pinion. Sent from my Super Smart Smart phone using Midi-chlorians |

Traxxas 2075 due to the water proof, affordability and the durability but now not so sure so I believe I will switch to the hitec 645wp. Looking at a savox too but still undecided. What do you recommend in the scx I have a lot of weight in the wheels so it will get a workout.

Apparently the pics are being hoarded offshore somewhere. I've yet to see pics from the last 2 outings yet there were flashbulbs going off like it was Hollywood Blvd.

Getting a "waterproof" servo isn't all that important. I would recommend the Hitec 5645MG at a BARE MINIMUM and realistically if you want one that you can rely on for quite some time I would look into something more like the Hitec 7955TG or the 7954SH. The 7950TH is always my choice...and I understand the price point is up there, but once you buy a high quality servo you'll never go back to the cheaper options. That being said...if I was building a scaler that I planned to dunk on occasion I would shoot for the Hitec 7955TG and spend just a little time with some clear silicone and apply it around the joints in the case, where the wires exit, and just a dab where the servo horn attaches. | |
