Noobie txt build questions
 

Hi all,

I'm new to this forum and new to crawling as well. I've been into RC cars planes and helis for about 15years though. I picked up a stock TXT-1 last week and would like to start doing some crawling with it. I'd like to change the wheels to bead locks and softer springs for the stock shocks. I've looked through the forum and can't seem to find specific information about what works with the TXT. Any information would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Sean

Search harder.

Lock the diffs, improve steering lock, lower the CG, revo shafts, lose the cantilevers, see what works best for you...

Thanks, but that doesn't answer my specific questions. I've already read that thread, and it doesn't mention anything other than "borrowed soft springs." I've already done everything you've mentioned, and now I'm looking for beadlocks that will fit and softer springs. Any advice, like recommended offset, etc. would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Sean

I see I misread your question. Why not take a look in the "Super" section and see what those guys are running. I run stock wheels cut, with cut stock tires. I can't complain.
