@cousineddie7444 2 года назад

I don't know what exists for shock limiters, but back in the late 90's when I raced nitro stadium truck, we used to put a short length of fuel tubing over the shock shaft as a stop to keep from grounding the chassis. It worked well enough that I used it as a preferred setup racing 2wd on-road... no springs up front, just riding on fuel tubing... green springs in the rear and the whole truck was stuck to the ground. Might be worth a look if options are slim.

Dude you've got a great channel. And I just got into RC about a year ago and you know what's funny is that RC Madness used to be on route 5 and Enfield and then one day it was just gone. But I wasn't into RC so I thought they closed. Years and years and years later I found myself wanting to get into it and I looked for a local hobby shop and I found that RC madness was still only 10 minutes from my house! Lol I was so happy about it. Went over there and picked up a basher and now I'm like 5 grand into this crap lol. Most recently just picked up an LC b-12 as my first kit. Going to start running the carpet track soon!

The RTR is a brushed set up and as Greg mentioned omits some of the upgraded parts that comes on the pro. Not to mention the ESC is an ESC/Receiver combo unit so you'll also need to purchase a new receiver too if you upgrade the brushed motor for the much preferred brushless.

Hello. :) I'm looking for a recommendation for an adult guy (my future son-in-law!) who would like to have an R/C car but who probably isn't going to get into it as a big-time hobby. (Maybe he will, but he's never had one -- always wanted one since his childhood.) I am completely lost with what's a good deal, what's not ... and obviously, since it'd be a first vehicle without knowing if he'd get into it as a hobby, I don't want to break the bank. Thanks for any help -- I truly appreciate it! (He'll probably just be using it outside, if that makes any difference ... not even sure if there are any tracks around here or if he even knows about tracks. Also, he's almost certainly not going to modify it in any way -- perhaps this is not the right stream to ask this in, since you all seem to be advanced! :-) Sorry if it's misplaced!)

Here's a good video with RC Cars under $150. The Losi Mini-B or Losi Mini-T are a lot of fun. There are shopping links in the video description. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-avhHtEEAN8M.html

If you haven't already got hum something, one of these, RTR would be a cool gift... there are only brushed buggies, and the Mini-T truck there's a faster brushless version... personally, for someone brand new, a brushed Mini-B RTR and a second battery would be where I would start... Other options, depending on interest and your location, of you have rocks or parks with appropriate terrain, etc... check out videos of RC rock crawlers, there's some mini ones of those too.... not fast, bit run a good while on a charge and may not be as likely to break.... Best wishes to you and family, RC is a great thing in many ways, a positive in this often dark and crazy world... cheers...

Yellow wheels are slower cuz the die the use is extremely heavy so it slows the car down lol 😆 😂 🤣 😅

More inertia, thrusts the car forward! 🤣😂🤣

The SX107 servo IS a problem...it's a piece of garbage. That's why it was almost always one of the (if not THE) first things replaced in the Capra - plastic gears, slow, underpowered...and, worst of all, NO 'overload protection'. In other words, it's SUPER easy to "kill".

@rcdriver 2 года назад

I’ve never had an issue with them in any of my bone stock Mini-T’s or B. Elsewhere yes and it’s an absolute no go in this roller after only holding up for 3 laps. I have a good servo recommendation for this car in my video description.

@robbryan3044 2 года назад

@@rcdriver The 640T is also what I initially replaced the SX107 with. In the end, I replaced that with a Powerhobby 59MG - slightly slower (0.11sec) & more powerful (80oz/in) at 6V, and equally fast & even more powerful (95oz/in) at 7.4V (the 640T maxes out at 6V). Plus, it's slightly heavier (20g vs 13g) then the 640T, giving the front a little extra weight, helping to bring the Mini-B closer to a 50/50 front/rear balance. I should mention that I've also replaced both shock towers with carbon fiber shock towers (stronger & less flex than the stock towers, plus helps to lower the vehicle's CoG).

@RayBMaven Год назад

@@robbryan3044 , Are you still happy with the Powerhobby? I just ordered a roller and need a servo. Was is drop in or did you need to modify anything? Were you able to use the Losi Alum arm or did you need to use a plastic from the servo kit?

@robbryan3044 Год назад

@@RayBMaven Still running the PowerHobby servo, and no problems. As for the servo horn, I was originally using the included horn, but I did have to use the shortest length hole, I had to enlarge the diameter of said hope to and I had to shorten the length of the horn. A could months after I installed it, I started working (mostly via email, but also via a could phone calls) with PowerHobby's lead engineer, developing an adapter. I'm still using the 3D-printed prototype...but, the finished version should either come with the servo, or be available separately (I know they told me it would be included, but I have no confirmation).

I wonder how this will stack up against the LC racing variants

@rcdriver 2 года назад

LC is 4wd, can’t really put them up against each other.

@skylar1112 2 года назад

@@rcdriver you are right about that. However this one is intriguing. I own 4 LCR and wouldn't mind adding one of these into the arsenal

@skylar1112 2 года назад

@NOTREALLY HANKAARON I'm actually curious about it. I also think that having a 2wd will make you a better driver. It looks well built.
