Outrage rebuild
Posted: Mon Dec 25, 2017 8:33 pm
I’m currently rebuilding my daughters outrage in preparation for our new vintage class.
It’ll be running a 60amp esc and a 17.5t motor and a reedy round stick style LiPo. It’s going to run the stock tires and wheels until I get some jconcepts for the rc10 classic.
I’m having a couple issues though. I’d like to run a slipper clutch so she doesn’t strip another center gear. So now I’m going to try and adapt the optima rere slipper clutch. I’m hoping the optima center gear will work as well since I’m having a hard time finding a new one.
I have a few things I will try to stiffen the chassis since there is so much flex and get some ultima shock towers as the outrage ones are softer than jello.
Right now it has 2.2 wheels and tires on the front and traxxas stampede rear wheels. It was what we threw on it to get some traction on the old clay track. Now we have a turf track.
It also has an old rc10 body which will be swapped for an outrage body or old bug body.
If anyone has any input to help me with the gear issues I’m all ears.
