Default repairs and wheel speed upgrades

Beefed up the RS10 wheel speed. 3s is enough for now. Checkout it out. https://youtu.be/ppYkttZy1Dw :lmao :

That is a huge wheel speed gain over stock. Have you looked into modifying the axles to take 540 motors? Think they are a neat truck but am not sold on the 380 motors. I thought I read a while back someone cut up the stock axles for 540's. May be wrong though.

I want 540 cans. That would make this so much easier. I do not want to hack these axles to fit 540 cans though. I want RS8 super slide axles. They already accept 540 cans. The wheel speed is great on these now.

That makes sense. The rs10 has been intriguing me for a while now. A buddy bought one and the end of our indoor crawling season last year. He has spent the summer upgrading it and we will see how he does with it indoor crawling this winter. If all goes well I may add one to the collection. Great work on yours!

I love my RS10. I don't even have $300 into it at this point and I am out crawling most things. I still need to mod the shocks and that should be about it for now. This mod made its wheel speed near a 27T I think. I guess some day I'll get a scale body.
