Under brushless power you would be better to totally forget about the RPM shock towers. They flex too much. I had a problem with my Emaxx not accelerating in a straight line from a standing start. ...

Half a turn seems to work best for me.

The blower fan fits without mods but its really not a quality piece of kit. Mine didn't seem to push a lot of air in the short time it lasted. You won't need the fan if geared reasonably well.

I don't remember getting any pins when I bought the adapters and AKA's site doesn't list them as part of the kit. I'm using the stock ones and I've never had that happen. Lost an adapter nut...

I finally received my FLM diff cup. I had to file down the inside of the cup a very small amount to get the gears installed. All the screws fit just fine though. Hopefully it can handle 3s now. ...

I've had the battery tray extension on for so long I don't even think about it. Worth getting, no doubt.

I find soldering to always be a bit of a pain in the rear. It's not that hard to...

No problem mon! You are right. The dimensions on the site are wrong. Using my measuring tool purchased from Hong Kong I come up with the following:

152mm x 49mm x 27mm.

On the site it shows...

I just received a ******* ********** 5000 3s 45-90c and it fits the Slash 4x4 easily. Wires come out the top on one side so you don't even have to trim the chassis. Just use a little foam for the...

I've had the adapters for many months and have only lost one right after I first got them. I do check them often for tightness though.

On USA ebay a place called Hopmeup has them. I've ordered...

Stinger30, I have a couple of these chargers and I'm glad you posted this information. Thanks man!

You can get a set a 4 pre-mounted buggy tires on eBay fairly cheaply.They have been working well for me.

I use an Align DS610. Fast and strong. Can be had for $60 or so.

As long as the plastic retainers hold the balls in well then it doesn't matter if they are plastic. You would still get the benefit of aluminum knuckles.

Maybe some people do that but I didn't. I have 2 sets of them and one was fine and the other set was not.

Fact: There is definitely a quality control problem with some knuckles.

My ESC is in the stock location as well. What I do is just leave the parallel adapter hooked up and only connect one battery to it. Maybe not the best solution but it works.

Yes, they use the same bearings. Old balls are removed by unclipping on the top and bottom of knuckles. Needle nose pliers work. Reuse the balls.

The only thing I have to say negatively about the Boost battery I received is the connector wire is too short. Another inch would have made it easier to deal with in my set up. Wires are definitely...

I thought 50k was stock in the center diff.

Anyway, many of the diffs when purchased have little to no oil in them. Best to open it up and take a look. Mine had very little inside of it and I...

If I break it bashing I will come back and comment. So far its all good. I've definitely subjected it to some g-forces when jumping. Time will tell, just like always. :-)

I just noticed that every one of the items in my wishlist now show as being out of stock. I probably have about 20 items and most showed in stock several days ago.

Something seems strange with...

I can't say what the best ones are but they did help reduce roll overs and handling in general. I think I bought the Hot Racing set.

My thoughts are that 1/16 is too small for 2" grass. Even though 30x30 feet is not that large, 1/10 scale would be much better with grass that deep.

I run my MERV on grass but I keep it shorter...

Look into a Sidewinder 1/10th scale ESC. It dropped my ESC temps about 25F. Lots of information can be found on here.

Sorry to tell you but no ESC will stop the motor from overheating. You're either going to have to gear it down further or replace both of them. At least, that has been my experience. YMMV.

Yeah... reduction of heat was what really interested me in these motors. Price also.

Know that these won't work with the stock ESC because of them being 4 pole. Also, cover the vent holes when...
