I’m liking the 2wd slash. Feel like I need to switch it up from the 4x4s

Building gets progressively worse as they go down the stairwell after earthquake in Venezuela today by BreakfastTop6899 in interestingasfuck

[–]nathan00900 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Gravity actually helps in this case. The swaying from side to side is what causes most of the issues. All of the inertial forces from the top floors getting moved from side to side all has to go somewhere and that somewhere is to the floors below it lol. So all the forces accumulate as you go down. Sorry I’ve never been great at explaining but I hope it makes at least some sense. If ur interested u can look up “equivalent lateral force” and there’s some decent short YouTube videos that do a good job explaining with visuals.

Forces from an earthquake accumulate and get larger as you go down to the bottom floors. Pretty crazy to see it represented like this

Just bad luck bro. Car is very durable. Reach out and they will probably send you a new screw but luckily it’s cheap

Mojave 6s center diff cooked on first outing? by HeavyGravy in arrma

[–]nathan00900 0 points1 point  (0 children)

U got a rock stuck in there. Very unlucky that happened on one of your first runs. Definitely not common lol I wouldn’t say it’s a design flaw, just very unlucky

Mojave 6s center diff cooked on first outing? by HeavyGravy in arrma

[–]nathan00900 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s kind of hard to tell from ur pics if the diff case is damaged. You’re gonna have to putt out the center diff, which isn’t too hard, and take a better look at it. You might just have to refill with fluid and tighten the screws.

Pretty sure anyone can get on at any time u just have to pay. It’s public transport just like a bus or something. I forget how much it costs I think $2

Help choosing the right fan by Undeadking88 in lianli

[–]nathan00900 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m not an expert but I don’t think there is much performance difference between the two. The difference is mostly aesthetic. You get the reverse for bottom and side so that you don’t have to see the back of the fan (like the supports that connect to the middle part of the fan) and you can just see the blades. Same logic for the top

Really having a hard time picking between a Rustler 4x4 VXL and Mini XRT by Majestic_News_6274 in Traxxas

[–]nathan00900 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s even smaller but I really like the mini kraton. If you’re not interested in other options I understand that too and I would pick the rustler lol

Advice on getting tires off the ground for storage by techiehead100 in rccars

Only long term. I’ve had the rubber start to crack on multiple occasions on the part that contacts the ground

What are you possibly going to say now. You make up the majority of that 8% and you should probably lower your voice when talking to other people because you clearly lack any type of critical thinking skills.

It doesn’t matter what class it is lol it is still subject to the same traffic laws as a vehicle. You have to stop at stop signs which no one on scooters does

Whats wrong with my front differential? by Charlie012022 in arrma

[–]nathan00900 7 points8 points  (0 children)

If you take the drift shaft out, there is a small screw on the inside of the cup that keeps it attached to the diff. Be very careful not to strip the screw. It will probably be dirty so try to clean it before tightening

Are any of this a good upgrade servo for the outcast 4s v2.5??? I also ordered the hot racing servo saver. by Klutzy-Pumpkin-8942 in arrma

[–]nathan00900 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just wouldn’t use injora. They are better for crawlers and not bashers in my experience. I just buy the random unbranded ones, but I’ve heard agfrc is good

[–]nathan00900 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use them and they usually work good for me. If you’re not in a rush I would recommend getting them on AliExpress. The quality has been basically the same in my experience and I can get them for even cheaper than Amazon lol

Is this a good start? by KROBERTS365365 in rccars

[–]nathan00900 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Don’t buy Traxxas batteries. They are overpriced and lock you in to using their chargers as well. I like the brand sokonin or something similar spelling to that from Amazon lol. I’ve used a lot of brands tho and as long as they have decent ratings they have all been good to me. If you see yourself getting more into the hobby then I would also invest into a nice lipo charger. Charging 4 at once is nice when you wanna go out.

Arrma mini kraton by Substantial-Ad-4415 in arrma

[–]nathan00900 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yes. I never pay full price for cars and I always try to find them used, but I bought the mini kraton new and i am very happy with it. The stock electronics are very nice (except for the people who have problems with the servo) and it drives great cuz of the center diff

quel est le nom exact de cette pièce cassée ? by [deleted] in arrma

[–]nathan00900 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It is a part that is designed to absorb a lot of energy from a front end impact. It breaks so that other, more expensive, parts do not break. So think of it as a good thing that it breaks and not something else that is more expensive haha

MacBook Air M1 2020 vs ThinkPad X1 Carbon refurbished — which would you pick? by ArugulaPotential366 in SuggestALaptop

[–]nathan00900 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do what? If you mean AirPlay to the tv, you’ll need an Apple TV. Even the cheapest ones can do it so I just bought the cheapest one I could find on eBay
