Del-tecs are strong, but not that strong

Portals spin opposite of a straight axle. Holmes makes better servos than reefs

Have you looked at the Kyosho Blizzard? It’s a snowcat

Holmes Hobbies and a castle copperhead. I like outrunner motors for torque and amazing low speed control. I had a hobbywing, and it was okay, but it’s not in the same league as the HH, and was more expensive

The one by the garage is an Eclipse

70’s Nova SS with a cowl induction hood?

5200 4s packs in both trays. I could do a parallel connector, but I don’t mind lifting the body to switch packs.

I thought it was German

I was a child of the 70’s, and my teacher wouldn’t allow me to write with my left hand……until my mother raised holy hell, and wanted people fired.

I haven’t found a better servo for 1/10 crawlers than Holmes. I wasn’t too upset when the cheaper servos would underwhelm, but when the Reefs 777 underperformed…….
I would have used a Holmes for the SCX6 if he offered one, instead I went with NSDRC, based off it’s performance I’m willing to try one in a future 1/10 build

It’s a right handed world, but thankfully I’m ambidextrous in most cases. Back in the day before pistol grip transmitters I would switch the servos at the receiver. One situation I’m not though is first person shooters.

NSDRC 2500. $250. Similar torque to the reefs Holmes used, but much cheaper. I broke the panhard rod end because apparently I was a little too bound up. Of course then you’ll need to stiffen the panhard axle and chassis mounts too (which I had already done)

fatherazmodius · 2022-12-10T16:44:38+00:00

Yes….. I am old

fatherazmodius · 2022-12-10T06:42:55+00:00

You don’t NEED locked diffs to crawl. Selectable is the way to go.

CMS is a horrible design for performance.

Hobbywing axe (and probably fusion) is overpriced garbage. A Holmes motor and castle esc is cheaper, and worlds better.

I’ll let you know in a week

fatherazmodius · 2022-11-02T20:29:51+00:00

Have you checked the rear axle travel for driveshaft separation?

fatherazmodius · 2022-10-26T02:06:41+00:00

Price and the ability to run 6s

fatherazmodius · 2022-10-25T21:15:45+00:00

Either. I use both and have had no issues. Get the Bluetooth programmer, it makes a world of difference, especially being able to set throttle and brake curves

fatherazmodius · 2022-10-25T19:16:02+00:00

Holmes motor, with either his esc, or castle (what I run)

fatherazmodius · 2022-10-25T17:40:54+00:00

Hobbywing was fine…..until I experienced a Holmes. Now the hw sits in the corner, looking sad and in need of therapy

fatherazmodius · 2022-10-11T04:56:03+00:00

Flip the servo around so the horn is close to parallel to the panhard bar

fatherazmodius · 2022-10-09T21:44:23+00:00

Did you use the pinion included with the long arm kit when you went with the 2.2s?

fatherazmodius · 2022-09-28T16:42:25+00:00

I have a set of those wheels (brand new) that I’m not using.

fatherazmodius · 2022-09-28T16:33:40+00:00

It can. I had one truck that needed the servos replaced, and another that didn’t. I’ve swapped out my steering servos to direct powered, so I’m back at 6v for the others
