12 rc's and only one I can use
Things have not gone my way the past few weeks. I currently have 12 rc's and the only one I can use is my xl1 stampede. One of them I just got too. Here is a rundown of what I am up against and how my luck has went to crap.
Rc-10- black widow buggy. Pulled the tekin speed control for my daughters tlo1
Tlo1- not mine anymore gave it to my oldest for here bday. It now has a baja bug body and sc wheels and tires on it. Looks cool
Rus'buggy- ran it with a 12t double with a 7 cell ended up being to much power for the tamiya battery connector and my soldering iron quit so I can't install my new traxxas connectors
Super Blackfoot-pending rebuild currently dissassembled with no electronics
Corrally-needs lipo saddle packs and lipo ready brushed esc thinking of getting a xl5 for it
Rc10 graphite-Needs parts to rebuild rear suspention
Ltx40- No tx and pretty much going to remain a shelf queen
Rs4 rally- still waiting for it to come back from afganistan in our conex
Big bear-pretty much junk at this point
T3- stealth slated to be installed on widow buggy the rest going into scrap pile for future builds
Sc10-just got it and I broke it. The guy I got it from overtightend the slipper I think because I looked like the spur and pinion where messhing right so I ran it and under full throttle launch it completely balded off the spur. I was able to adapt a traxxas 78 tooth spur with parts from the t3 slipper set up it worked really well except I was a bone head and put on a 31 tooth pinion. And yeah it was stupid fast but I burned out the reedy 3300kv. Oh so stupid. Oh did I mention it was borrowed? Now I am buying it
by choice
Stampede-only one ready to run
So that is how my rc life is going. I am also buying another rustler xl1 for my youngest for her bday I was going to give her my pede but I rather keep it and give her the rustler it is in great shape

Re: 12 rc's and only one I can use
for the corally there is a speed control from dynamite its called tazer 10t lipo it can do the saddle pack easy and it will hold down to a 10 turn double i have used it personally on a test car and i got to admit it holds up only thing i would recommend is change out the connectors on battery side and motor side. use bullets on the motor and deans or the traxxas connector

Re: 12 rc's and only one I can use
both rear arms, dogbones, axles, bearing carriers and shock tower. I took them off years ago and they got lost after moving around a lot. I was trying to make a stadium truck out of it and I have t3 rear arms bearing carriers and shock tower on it now.jwscab wrote:whaddya need on the rear suspension of the graphite car?
Update I got the widow buggy and the rus'buggy running again but then I broke the rus'buggy. Maybe I shouldn't have trusted the tl01 carriers. Ordering a tacon motor for the sc10 on the 15th. And I have the Corally running too.
