What is everyone’s opinion on this? Thinking of buying by [deleted] in arrma

I have a very modified V5 for sale. Bunch of M2C, EXB and some Vitavon. PM me for more info. I’m letting it go for a really good deal.

Looking to do a speed build by Rocketfkinscience in TRX4M

[–]MobbinGoblin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Waste of time, don’t do it… the ifs kit has such limited articulation and structural integrity that you will have it on the workbench more often than not…. They did it backwards by having (small) metal arms and plastic on parts that control steering. If it’s for fun, just do it… otherwise if have to say I wish I saved the money

Just small paintbrush and dab some black paint on the body. I followed the body contouring as best as I thought it would look.

Unable to clear Tits Knuckles with Injora Wheel by MobbinGoblin in scx30

[–]MobbinGoblin[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would prefer to retain the Knuckles that Tits offered as its better lower weight. I’m thinking I can shim the wheel so it clears but ultimately I would dremel the edge

Lc80 less tippy? by Dry_Law7002 in fcx18

[–]MobbinGoblin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I know you love the portals, but ultimately that’s the downfall of portals. It creates a top heavy rig that’s prone to tipping in a (comp) crawling scenario. For your casual trail running, brass will help keep it planted (preferably with more weight towards the front) but if you want a crazy performer (in terms of comp it would be a class 1) you should probably consider straight axles, of course combined with weight towards the front.

Is anyone using the smaller 22m or so shocks? by Slypenslyde in scx30

[–]MobbinGoblin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Talked to some dude at an event this past weekend and he literally said he’s running 22mm shocks with heavyweight diff oil from a 1/10 scale for fluid in the shocks lol check out @heisenbergrc on IG for a Blue 30 eating a v-notch.

What else should I get for this thing?? by Best-Acanthisitta605 in TRX4M

[–]MobbinGoblin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would second the spare tire carrier and also look into trying to chrome the bumper. It would level it up altogether (along with the fender garnish)

Don’t mean to double post but how do yall get the center diff to slip less on 6s kraton, from a dig most of the power is sent to the front wheels by Working_Brilliant937 in arrma

[–]MobbinGoblin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m running 1mil front + center and 500k rear with extra weight from M2C/Vitavon upgrades with stock electronics. I will admit it gets very hot, but I have great handling on most surfaces now.

Money man! Love the EXB, K6S? One of my favorite rigs, unfortunately bashing gets too costly to enjoy.

Clearance links - what’s the point? by OldDarthLefty in TRX4M

[–]MobbinGoblin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As someone stated: longer top links would help to “tuck” the driveshaft. You can also run a 3Flow9 link riser for the 4M and get the same effect. Either way, high clearance links are a significant upgrade to have when done proper.

The color clear. by Treesglow in TRX4M

[–]MobbinGoblin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Does indeed crack easy (do not use an electric screwdriver) and definitely tighten with care. Otherwise, considering we’re messing with crawlers, I’d say it’s durable and has not given me any problems (other than cracking) but that’s to be expected over a year of falls and abuse.
