Ascender K10 So been reworking my K10 since installing most of the GCMRacing goodies. I noticed alot of angle on the steering link pivot ball (on the servo horn) thats binding when the axle reaches a certain point how can i fix this so its not binding? Im not running a droop setup. Without lowering the the servo? Itself to take off the binding on the pivot ball. I can not afford new shocks that are shorter. Just need to solder a few things and the K10 will be back on the trails shortly. And pictures to be uploaded shortly. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
Re: Ascender K10 Pictures. So GCMRacing setup. Reworking the wiring. Switch to a 45T 550 i had kicking around. Will be installing a smaller pinion its currently a 18T going down to a 16T running 2s on Trails not just rocks. New 20kg/277oz powerhd servo will be picked up. The old blue hitec has been with me since i started rcing and can no longer turn the 1.9s. Proline KO2’s OD of 4.35” on Gmade SR03 beadlocks.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...35d7144efa.jpg https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...dd5ac7db96.jpg https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...cf1bafdb70.jpg https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...786d30b4f5.jpg https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...f56a2cac41.jpg https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...471fe7c041.jpg https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...dbffea7669.jpg https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...84a54ee96e.jpg Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
Re: Ascender K10 New servo PowerHD LW-20MG. Had a TRX4 servo horn kicking around and the spline count matched up so that will be the servo horn used. Out with the old Hitec HS5646WP it had a good rub but can no longer keep up with moving tires. Motor being regeared from a 18T pinion to a 16T pinion.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...9da9b30f3d.jpg https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...ba7ae85546.jpg |
Re: Ascender K10 Also changing out the pivot ball and rod end for a more traditional steering rod end which should allow for a few spacers to lower the ball. Not really needed to be done but opens up some adjustability https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...902fa3ef9a.jpg Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
Re: Ascender K10 So the steering link was lowered a total of 2.75mm not enough to make it parallel but its closer. Need a longer screw to lower the steering link to parallel with the Panhard. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
Re: Ascender K10 Have you thought of mounting the servo from the bottom instead of from the top to get the arms parallel? Pretty sure that's what I did with mine... |

Can you share you setup with a picture? Im no sure im understanding how you set your rig up. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
Re: Ascender K10 4 Attachment(s) Yeah - it's not pretty - I need a different length steering link - mine is jury-rigged but it works just fine, as the links are almost perfectly parallel: |

So you rig is set up with the servo to on side of the frame. Mine is going across the frame. I will see if i have those parts to make it change the servos position Also im curios as to where you got that bumper? https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...24b0d9dee2.jpg Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
Re: Ascender K10 Realized that the 1.9 beadlocks I have did not have enough offset to keep the K02 from rubbing the rod end so I am using it my old 2.2 that clear. Would of been easy enough to buy a wider hex hub but that's not in the current budget. And size wise these 2.2s aren't that much bigger than the 1.9s. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...cabd4878cd.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...5614568267.jpg Sent from my FRD-L14 using Tapatalk |
Re: Ascender K10 here's a pic before I switched servo orientation - shows how I mounted the servo from the bottom: http://www.rccrawler.com/forum/attac...161754half.jpg |

Re: Ascender K10 Here's a pic of that bumper before installation - it is a WertyMade Ascender Flat-top stinger model - but WertyMade seems to have gone out of business -you MIGHT find one at an LHS or somewhere, if you're lucky: http://www.rccrawler.com/forum/attac...reequarter.jpg |

Re: Ascender K10 Found a mistake younger me made. A longer upper link. To smooth out a drive shaft angle from the pumpkin by switching to a 66mm upper link. Over keeping it stock link 61mm. There is a "i told you so" coming my way. Which created a few problems to do with the steering. After laughing at my own mistakes for some time. Got 110mm shocks installed.

Re: Ascender K10 Alright almost everything done now time to charge a 2s lipo up. And go test it out on the melting slushy snow windrows. 4600mAh pack. And I might try 3s as well. Sent from my FRD-L14 using Tapatalk |

Re: Ascender K10 Also ordered a new K10 cab while I was at the local shop. With all the truck convoy blockades to the US it may take some time to get the cab. Sent from my FRD-L14 using Tapatalk |
Re: Ascender K10 Test run outside done. List of needed improvements is as follows. 1. Work out why I have a pogo sticks amount of travel. 2. Let there be suspension articulation! 3. 3s lipo over 2s. Thats the list. Sent from my FRD-L14 using Tapatalk |
