It is the same internals as the standard R2........so the same will hold true.

I will be installing one in SticksNStones BMV as soon as the other 2 trannies show up it is BL

Do you actually have to stop the truck to re engage four wheel drive ? looking at the vid it stopped every time you re engaged 4wd , will it not re engage without stopping first ?

no it will engage on the move as I did several times, it was more so the video operator can keep up LOL:lol:

Interesting. . .

Looks like it works just like it is supposed to."thumbsup" Did you try the freewheeling mode or was that always lock. I didn't see the rear wheels roll any of the times. Good luck with the R2 and brushless, unless they are small motors, I learned my lesson the hard way, and now run brushed again in the comp rigs, I threw the brushless in the scaler.;-)

on one of em I did start out on coast and then to dig half way through the turn

it works OK and does bind once in awhile and you need to rock it a tad to get it unstuck

Are you testing it for rc4wd or just testing to see if you like it?

Interesting, I was wondering if it was totally smooth everytime or if it hangs up once in a while. Good to know it has quirks, just like most other setups.:)

try to shift it while its on a steep incline and pressure against the mechanism....anything is hard to shift....of course Im just using a hpi sf1 throttle servo also

Looks good, nice video thanks "thumbsup"

Ive already changed the mounting bracket and servo and arm made it much more compact and no need for any linkage:mrgreen:
