The absolute best upgrade that you can do is not a specific part that you can buy... It's time and patience and listening and seeing what the fast guys are doing and taking their advice to heart and then applying it to your race program!!! Great video Ryan 👍👍

@brendand.2269 2 года назад

Yes but the best drivers in the world are sometimes separated by a tenth of a second over 5 minutes. So the mods add up to those tenths. A car with ceramic bearings, pucks system, high quality electronics, polished hinges, slipper eliminator, etc…. In the hands of the same pro will be faster than the stock version

@hondofourfivetwo9347 2 года назад

One of the things to consider with titanium tie rods is that the lack of flex can cause more broken parts. I have had an increase in broken parts with new ballcups and titanium turnbuckles. The flex may be more forgiving for beginners who don't land every jump the right way. Protip- If you are upgrading to titanium from steel parts and accidentally mix them up:steel is mildly magnetic while titanium isn't. You can use a magnet, or brushed motor, to quickly determine which is which.

@stanmore1972 2 года назад

Aluminium servo horn especially if your running a high torque servo. Plastic servo horns can’t always cope.

@RCHobbiez 9 месяцев назад

This was definitely very useful. I learned with my first rig that you don't want everything aluminum. If you have some durable plastics, the flex from an impact will help so that the metal doesn't stay with that odd shape after an impact. For my bashers I always looked for Proline plastic parts as they were stronger.

@blindj 2 года назад

Finally someone said it. Different parts does not necessarily mean "upgrade". Some people want to change/"upgrade" parts on their RC so badly they don't even drive it stock to know if what they are switching is actually helping or hurting their performance. Love the content , And I am not even a dirt racer. Keep up the great videos.

@NeoIsrafil 2 года назад

Im driving a wltoys 104001, the new 4wd race buggy they put out, and honestly i love it. Ive got the electronics converted to a brushless 3s setup, the aluminum swapped to 3mm carbon fiber, and honestly she handles as well as any associated or losi buggy ive ever seen. Was SO pleasantly surprised. I did manage to break the front driveshaft on one side, so i swapped it to an associated b64 set and it fit perfectly and was probably a durability improvement tbh, hasn't broken since. For a 150 dollar car its just unbeatable, i paid 230 for an ebay order when it was backordered everywhere and i dont even regret overpaying, its just that good imo.

@chadchristians607 2 года назад

The cars today are so good out of the box you don't need to upgrade, put the upgrade money towards tires. With that said, Ryan's advice, when doing a rebuild, is a good time to add some upgrade/option parts. If you do want an immediate upgrade, ceramic bearings for your 10th scale car is a good bang for the buck and is worth considering with a new builder kit or rebuild. As always Ryan, thanks for the channel.

@bobtierney6946 2 года назад

One of the best RCCA articles I remember said this about "hop-ups". They will either improve strength, lower lap times or improve looks. Some will give more than one of these. The more the better. The rest are up to the owner. For me if it improved strength and lap times, I was in.

@TheMassEffect 2 года назад

Metal bulk head (option between the metals) is a must at out track. All the team guys run them on there 2wd(track specific kind of a thing). Other then that spot on. Also we have a guy who 3d prints a block for a fan that fits on the battery and cools the motor more effectively. At least for us team AE guys

@limberg2005 3 месяца назад

I just started racing on Indoor Carpet and have been working with one of my Rustlers to improve it. I added an Aluminum front bulkhead and an actual front bumper (also aluminum) to add weight in the front. It also surprisingly made the Rustler a lot more durable. Not as durable as a Slash but definitely a major improvement.

@danidv2218 2 месяца назад

Best way to have both aesthetic and permormance upgrade is changing the wing and the "cover" of the car (idk the english name) some wings come in many different colors and design and they can make a big difference (mostly track specific talking about 1/8 scale buggy) and covers i mean, some of them have attentions to aerodynamics which is cool and also kinda good for performance but you get a transpatent one and you can have a go at painting it or just pay someone to paint it for you and now you have a cool distinguishable design

@truckerdude17 2 года назад

Good info Ryan!! When I purchased my B6.3 most of the guys in the Facebook group suggested an aluminum bulkhead. Some said they broke it the first day on the track. They say that and the titanium screws are the 2 upgrades to get before building. Me…I did not!! Maybe later. Lol

@kennymsd 2 года назад

Yet another good video.. I run mostly on turf/ carpet and our front ends take a beating. Hence, i run aluminum front bulk heads. They are more durable and we can afford to lose some flex (grip). The down side when running "upgraded" metal parts, especially ones that have so many parts tied in, is being extra careful to use a thread lock of some sort and even then you have to pay attention to the car as things can come loose even when thread lock is applied. Taking away flex adds stress to other areas...

I'd agree with pretty much all of it, except the bit about the bulkheads. It's an option part with most brands, usually having 3-4 options(plastic, aluminum, steel, brass.) Most of the local carpet cars here have brass. Added durability of the metal ones don't hurt either.

I could see them being less common in the dirt world though, with carpet we're all for the most part trying to get the weight forward and low.

So I just built a AE B74.2 and automatically got the front center and rear aluminum housing for the diffs, the weight difference is so negligible that I feel it was worth it. I got colored aluminum wheel nuts, the ones that come with the car are steel and are a noticeable difference in weight. IMO Aluminum vs Plastic isn't that much of a weight difference. Main issue with Aluminum is it doesn't spring back like plastic dose. If you full send your car into a curb something's gonna break, don't matter if its aluminum or plastic.

Not mentioned in detail are something more than obvious that DOES have an impact on your speed/handling/whatever - CONTROL ARMS. I got tired of replacing dogbones and CVD shafts on my Tenacity every time it barrel rolled so I bought some aluminium control arms and haven't bent another 'bone. They're a bit heavier but come with more adjustment points for the ball studs and shocks so it's an upgrade rather than an option. And the elephant in the room is SHOCKS. Stock shocks on lower-end RTR and race kits are often lacking in one way or another. Just throwing in a different set of spring front or rear could drastically change your handling.

Grease bearings are fine. Millions of them are used in heavy duty industrial applications without issues.
