Lol. Yelp not so quiet when ur round lol. I usually run batt dead on iPad an cell phone every nite I read till I get a headache lol. I've learned a lot just a readn I've read bout every post n the venom thread all the way back to way back then. Well batt is goin dead on iPad now lol. Gonna plug it up an get phone.


Need a few ideas on a good servo for a dig unit.......

 

[winnerone23]

Mmmmm.... Dig servo..... I went, how do you say it, Overkill!.... I'm running a Hitec 645 with a metal horn... Adjusted my end points an all was well... Then during comps, I would cranck up my epa, to get back into 4wd.. for added insurance.. its the way to go if ur serious.. anything like a Jr 590z, 80-90oz would be good, I just didn't find mine till the 645 , 133oz, was on..

I got a big bright dumb idea the other nite an started cutn an hackn before I did ne measuring....neways tho the idea wuz to widen the top of my xrv2 chassis to run a bigger batt because I have been runnin it on top of the trans inbetween the top chassis plates.......so I cut the 12 spacers down an it workd but it didn't look right so like two days ago one of my buddies sold out an I wuz able to buy a few more small 2cell lipos so I want to put my chassis back in the right width....if nebody with same chassis could give me the measurements on the length of the chassis spacers it would b greatly appreciated I have sum delrin to make more from.....stupid idea lol.....note to self don't f#@k with it if its not broke. Thanks

Thanks troy......goin to get btl servo plate after Christmas ol'lady says I have to wait. At suxs. Lol. An a good bearing kit an new ring an pinoins mine r startn to chip off n little pieces......an that new fusion tranny it looks bada*# she don't know bout those yet tho. Lol

 

[winnerone23]

Hmmm... I'll look around, I may have a set of ring an pinion gears that came out of axles I bought for the housings.. I know I have one set for sure, still in the axle, never used..
It's weird tho, I comped mine hard all season an haven had a ring an pinion problem.. email venom, they may just take care of ya for free.. or cheap anyways.. there service has been said to be great!

The btl kit is awesome! Before I got mine, I put balls in between the tabs an my tie rod on top. I saw a big diff just in the 1/4"-3/8" I gained from that, then I got the btl kit.. wow! What a huge diff it make! That an a safe servo is a happy servo....

The fusion tranny looks sick for sure!

I think I figured out my pinion issues were the result of a failed bearing.

 

[winnerone23]

That would make some cents.. what did venom say bout replacing them?
