yeah that's ill :-) much fun for him I think. great driver

what it overheats ??? with 3s-lipo perhaps. Look at my thread there is a picture of my summit with the cooler installed. I have no shutdowns with driving on 16Z and 53Z. And 19Z with 53Z gearing....

Hi there,
I use the steel driveshafts now for a while with 3s-lipo and a 16Z 53Z gear. Now 19Z 53Z gear for little more speed with 2s-lipo.
No problems with this shafts, seems to be stable. But I...

So, after some test drives the truck drives very fine. I changed some parts again .... at the same time the original battery cover breaks :-( I think this aluminium one is better.
...

Look at my summit with some mods thread, I use this cvd's with 3s-lipo. working very nice. Also I use the aluminium revo rockers

This is my cooling solution for the summit, still working fine with 3s-lipo using.
The ESC is not shutting down, enough cooling. The motor is a little hot after two 3s-lipo drives.
...

Soooo, today I was on the race track abow post #18. I drove four 3s-lipo and two 2s-lipo empty :-) that was my new record about 2H driving.
The GPM aluminium shocks with the golden springs are...

Ok, my new shocks have arrived ... fit perfect to the summit and the golden springs are the stiffest ones ! I will try these on the offroad track and I hope that they don't leak the oil.
There pre...

Yes I use the stock summit springs with the blue mark. The springs from the Integy piggyback are too soft. I will check how stron the springs from the GPM shocks are. I think for my offroad track do...

Today I drived on the offroad dirt track three 3S-LiPo's and the center diff works very fine, no wheelies and good traction. I have 2 piggy's in front and the stock shocks rear. I loose oil on the...

The red stock springs are fine, they have a BLUE color mark on the end.

I drive with 3s-lipo my mini summit and have air cooling on the control unit and motor! works fine

the stock springs are very good in my opinion. I made some test drives on a offroad track. I have the Integy Piggyback shocks with the stock springs. But one problem ... the piggybacks leaking every...

I orderd a center diff for my summit, I will try 50k oil. Now there's to much power on the rear wheels. Perhaps I will be faster on this track with a center diff. And a good working shock, must...

thanx,

today I drove some Akkus lipo 3s ... drive shafts are wonderful, the piggyback shock looses oil today. The seal is broken. I noticed that after few rounds on the race offroad track, the...

yes you're right but ... my first car since years and I want to mod it a little :-) looks nice and drives fine too !!
I think on a fast crash I got problems with the aluminium stuff .....

uff ... that's bad. I have such aluminium center driveshafts. I have four driveshafts for the wheels but the thinn steel like this:

I did two drives...

It's the last picture after many modifications. transmission parts are changed, the 2 diff cases and gearbox, and all driveshafts.

thanx guys, the servo has no problem, the steering is working easy. The truck has a little more weight.
the cvd are the steel drive shafts....

Ok, what a hard work to finish this all .... here are some pics. I only made a testdrive in my living room yet :-)
All working nice but I use the org. Traxxas spring for the piggy shocks, they are...

Aha, ok I will take a look of the shocks if they leak, the piggyback are a little softer as the stock. I use medium oil and the red progressive spring .... I have to wait of more parts now to finish...

Is it possible to get a closed diff in front and rear? The diff's are open on top so there can be dirt inside ....

I removed not the heatsink, only the blue top case so I can put a fan on the heatsink / capacitor.
today I filled the integy piggyback shocks with some medium shock oil. We will see if they are...

the 1:16 cars from traxxas are amazing, I have the summit, it runs very fine but I ordered some aluminium parts

Hi there,
I have this RC car ... my first car since 100 years :-) I decidet to get not a big - heavy car so I've got a 1:16 summit. I was surprized about the power of that brushless system. I use...
