Re: GoolRC Brushless combo?

Well, I discovered the 1/24 scale Losi's and really want one... so I went the cheap route with a replacement brushed motor. I ended up with a Electrifly S-600. It was reviewed well by the traxxas guys as a durable alternative to the Titans. Ground a flat spot on the output shaft, opened up my motor ...

Re: GoolRC Brushless combo?

Are capacitors required on the newer brushed motors, or are they built-in?

Which ebay brand did you end up going with?

GoolRC Brushless combo?

Well, my GreenMachine2 finally burnt up so I guess I'll make the jump to brushless! I was leaning towards a Turnigy Trackstar 13.5T combo, but I saw a GoolRC 3100kv on Amazon for half the price. Any experiences with the brand? This is really just for backyard bashing with my XXT on 2S lipo My other ...

Can you point a guy in the direction of this mythical "improved" nut? I just stripped on of mine too trying to crank down on it.
Thanks!

Re: Another XXT Resurrection

I flipped the rings, but didn't replace. Did a "break-in", checked the dif. Ran it some, checked the diff... stripped the nut. It had the 6 washers called out in the manual, but that was leaving only a thread or two engaging the nut and nothing into the nylok which is why I think it loosen...

Re: Another XXT Resurrection

Haven't updated this in awhile... I'll try to get some pictures up later What I thought was just a busted upper brace turned out to have cracked the servo saver as well. After getting those replaced I stripped out the diff gear. I need a job as a destructive tester! So it was time for some noticeabl...

Re: New Member - Trying to rebuild an XX-T

If your seals aren't leaking, you can just drain/clean/refill the shocks. I just did that to mine with 35wt oil. I was going to replace the o-rings, but had ordered the wrong ones. I've seen carbine recommended for the diff balls over ceramic because they don't slip as easily. But ceramic is best fo...

Re: XX/ XXT upper brace

While I am looking for that XXT CR Body I know I have somewhere, I'll keep an eye out for the upper brace. Does it have to be new? I am sure I have some gently abused ones in a box somewhere. New, used, plastic, graphite. Even slightly damaged! Think i have multiple spares of these parts. Pm me if ...

Re: XX/ XXT upper brace

ebay is your best bet or you can check with http://oldrc.com off an on. He is one of the vendors on this site also known as sabula tech and goes by mytimac.

XX/ XXT upper brace

Well, I let me wife drive my XXT and she quickly found a mailbox. Mostly unscathed except her pride, in her defense it was pushing when on-power. Guess I need to lower the front some.

Anyone have a lead on an upper brace (part of A4110)?

Re: Another XXT Resurrection

BUHAHAHAHHAHA.... It's alive! Ended up with a Vans' 6500mah 2s. Soldered up new 10ga wiring (10yd BoyBoy wasn't the best at soldering) with some Deans connectors and just got done letting her rip at little. I was a little worried that the electronics were bad, but everything came up just fine. I mus...
