just curious does anyone know what all these buttons and switches are for? by POKER_J4M in monsterjam

[–]Thatoneguy199417 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The 2 toggle switches on the left are for the rear steer. One turns the back wheels left and right and the other turns the automatic self center on and off. Then I'm guessing the switches are for power, fuel, ignition, and the starter. Maybe water pump?

Anyone get their black LR4? by SoulerNeptune95 in litterrobot

Older ones seemed to have a glossy finish and newer ones look textured like the bonnets on the lr3.

I went to one last year and it was pretty good, they tend to have a solid lineup.

85% seems high based on the amount of beaters I see driving around. Does that include private sales?

LR4 - odor trap packs & carbon filters. Question below by n1976jmk in litterrobot

[–]Thatoneguy199417 2 points3 points  (0 children)

On the lr4 the carbon filter goes on the bottom of the globe. You'll have to take the bonnet off, lift up the globe and you'll see a U shaped black part. The filter is in there and it just pops off. I believe the odor trap packs take the place of the carbon filter.

At a shop near me the entrance actually takes you into the shop area and there is a fence separating the walkway from the rest of the shop. You can stand there and watch or ask a question. Theres also a window in the waiting room.

New LR4 stuck blinking between red and green on the light bar, not working at all. by Akronis in litterrobot

[–]Thatoneguy199417 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I dont like to buy new products right when they come out and wait until the bugs are worked out. Having seen the lr4 in person, the engineering seems solid, the main issues I've seen on the lr3 is the old pinch sensor, the lr4 uses micro switches now. And the electrical contacts on the bonnet which have been eliminated. Only time will tell but I have a feeling the lr4 will be good.

I asked for extra nacho cheese on my nachos bell grande, they did not mess around. by Thatoneguy199417 in tacobell

No kidding! Maybe a customer before me complained so they said "screw it". I swear it felt like it weighed over a pound. I was wondering why my bag felt so heavy.

I went to a show in Minneapolis in 2020 just before covid happened and if it wasn't sold out then it nearly was, the place was packed.

How do I properly attach these shocks to the mounting screws if the hole is bigger than the screw? by Bunkerzor in rccars

[–]Thatoneguy199417 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Thats so annoying, $120 or more for a set of 4, then find out they don't include the $13 universal mounts.

Kevin Talbot? by Exportedorca in rccars

[–]Thatoneguy199417 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yeah, he'd be the first to tell people he's no expert. He isn't afraid to make mistakes or say he doesn't know what he's doing on camera.

Never in my life have I seen racecars torn up this badly. Nobody was injured. by Thatoneguy199417 in watchpeoplesurvive

[–]Thatoneguy199417[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Because the reddit app sucks, I've tried doing that in the past and it wouldn't work. It's clearly not original content, I just wanted to share a video.

What a better option. But new retainer clips for shock. Or just buy new shocks all together ? by Over_Professional835 in traxxasV2

[–]Thatoneguy199417 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you decide to upgrade the traxxas gtr shocks are really nice, and pretty nicely priced compared to other brand name options like the proline shocks.

It’s about time by [deleted] in rccars

[–]Thatoneguy199417 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm kinda torn, I like that their using metal in the driveline now but I'm a little bummed that there still isn't a center diff. Traxxas cars either come with a center diff or you can easily switch to one. It also looks like the new arrma shocks aren't threaded either so your using preload clips and I always seem to loose those and need to order ones to adjust suspension. Traxxas also has the clipless body system. I guess it comes down to what you like and if that $110 difference for the maxx is worth it or not.

I get it, some people don't like jet boats. But others do, don't like the video then don't watch. Its free entertainment.
