  2. Finally got my traxxas summit monster truck back together in rwd mode.

    I lost a couple drive shafts last time it was going...street sign.. and I believed the rear diff was clicking. So I took out the front diff put it in the rear and put on a pair of spanking new drive shafts.

    The day comes...and I go out for a quick 10 min run. Through some snow wide open. Had to since the tires are mud tires so if they aren't shedding you aren't moving.

    Turns out I might have suspected the wrong diff as after the 10 min the spider gears were roasted. Like fuck.... 8year old spider gears but still lol.

    To put it in perspective the tire are 7.5" tall.

  3. That thing is a beast. I bought a new shorty lipo for my Team associated sc6m and I've only taken it out once since. I got to get the kids more into their rcs. They just play fortnight these days.

  4. That thing needs a castle brushless motor/esc combo and a big lipo. The newer stuff is unbelievable for power and run time.

  5. Hell no man this is a crawler. Sides that the diffs are getting old now that I think if it.

    I got other brushless rigs for my speed needs. As the summit is one of those trucks you only need replace the worn out items as breakages aren't that common.
     
  6. Heres my rc cars. I have a 1/16 mini e-revo with some lipos.
    Then i have radio shacks 1/24 scale xmods. 5 in all.... skyline, scion ( which is modded ), lancer evo ( drifter). Audi, and a supra.
