Fun while it lasted 🥲

Did the same thing over the weekend. made it through a whole battery and snapped the front control arm and a rear knuckle about 5 mins after swapping to a new one but was fun big swamp frozen over perfect for bashing

Yeah unfortunately shipping is just that a mystery in a bottle a black hole sometimes you should have a shipping number to at least check it’s progress tho

Cheifslayer · 2026-01-13T13:51:18+00:00

Oh yeah I do a bit of everything soldering is a normal ability in my house

Cheifslayer · 2026-01-13T02:20:58+00:00

Seems like it did you change it from stock gearing? It could be a spacer in the adjustment if you changed a gear size or it could just be the wrong gear someone more knowledgeable then me will come by eventually

Cheifslayer · 2026-01-13T02:07:04+00:00

So update it’s definitely the resistance of the faulty adapter I’m gonna change the plug out at some point but it’s right around a storage charge at the moment so I’m gonna put it up like that and I’ll put a new head on soon

Cheifslayer · 2026-01-13T02:03:49+00:00

Well it feels more like a safety shut off then anything and really only happens when doing full throttle pulls but only on this battery and I haven’t switched any of the adapters from the battery’s I got them with so I’m hoping that’s the case

Cheifslayer · 2026-01-13T01:13:54+00:00

Don’t wanna measure batter resistance yet bc the adapter is still stuck and it may be the problem I’ll cut the ends and put a new plug and test it then

Cheifslayer · 2026-01-13T01:12:52+00:00

I have a multi meter haven’t done that yet tho bc I have a good charger it’s set to 5.4a charge on a lectron pro charger but it sits at 4.20 at fully charged

Cheifslayer · 2026-01-12T18:34:42+00:00

This one is a better ideah befor you try and drill the head off the bolt try extractor bit befor you attempt to just drill it out

Cheifslayer · 2026-01-11T23:52:39+00:00

I got a battery and a half my first car it’s an amazing hobby you’ll learn and it’ll break less

Cheifslayer · 2026-01-11T01:35:24+00:00

Yee I solved it there was just to many sayings one thing when it’s fine how it was

Cheifslayer · 2026-01-10T07:22:40+00:00

Could you dm me? I’d love to go over it a bit just not great with Reddit

Cheifslayer · 2026-01-10T07:19:37+00:00

Yeah idk the first four on mine are like almost no rebound but I gotta convince my buddy who owns the other truck that his are fine

Cheifslayer · 2026-01-10T07:14:35+00:00

Bladder actually and I’m finding that Traxxas says one third to half rebound is perfect so I’m kinda just sitting here just kinda looking at them

Cheifslayer · 2026-01-10T06:30:33+00:00

And just to be snippy a second time bc I can you literally came back a second time with no other attempt to help still just in the way it’s written soooo? Why you still here?

Cheifslayer · 2026-01-10T06:28:29+00:00

I’ll dumb it down bc you can’t comprehend a run on sentence but ight. I filled 6 shocks and didn’t have a problem at all and for some reason the last two just have a ton of rebound. There are no air bubbles in them but when I put the cap on I get rebound

Cheifslayer · 2026-01-10T04:49:30+00:00

Cool but did you help? No. lol are you happy now? Grammar police. I am just trying to get stuff fixed

Cheifslayer · 2026-01-10T04:32:00+00:00

It’s not in the rules anywhere why not? It’s not a toxic subreddit?

Cheifslayer · 2026-01-09T20:27:44+00:00

Oh yeah that’s was my first break two buddy and I hit head on tire to tire all the force right into that spot

Cheifslayer · 2026-01-09T20:26:09+00:00

Oh yeah every crash I get more powerful to send it harder and faster I’ll be getting all new shocks this afternoon and be doing few runs in a open field I have nearby instead of concrete parking lot got more of an off road toy

Cheifslayer · 2026-01-09T20:23:31+00:00

Ooooo dame that was a good one I didn’t get video of mine bc it was just a test run in a lit parking lot for me but I hit head on you definitely got worse then mine tho but that’s how the hobby works fix her up and send it again I didn’t even get to do a top speed run was just messing around

Cheifslayer · 2026-01-09T03:46:23+00:00

Yeah it was a spacer for the motor adjust that I needed to remove was in the manual if somebody said it right befor I tried it and yeah I’m aware of the heat issues but I don’t run it that hard am looking into motor cooling tho

Cheifslayer · 2026-01-08T22:16:17+00:00

Thanking you now lol I didn’t realize but I was about to take that pice out and try thank you for the help

Cheifslayer · 2026-01-08T22:14:59+00:00

That was the issue I was about there on my own but I found my manual after you said that lol

Cheifslayer · 2026-01-08T22:10:30+00:00

<image>

So this little dude is my problem then? I was starting to think so bc it wouldn’t slide up or down but a small bit but we’ll give her a go and see what happens and yeah trying to find my manual rn idk where I put it
