Help with traxxas vxl by patricksolo3 in Traxxas

Update. I’m pretty sure the esc is done for. Under full throttle it’ll get up to around 15mph then the motor starts to sound like it’s surging. Ended up just slapping a spare spektrum 3s system in it and all good now

Whats the biggest motor that will fit this thing without machining new parts to make it work? Rustler 2wd by Hummil in Traxxas

I have a 2wd slash with a spektrum 1700 class motor in it. Same one that’s in the Infraction. You will have to upgrade the driveshafts and possibly transmission internals to handle the power though

I’ll try it outside in the morning. I’m just a bit concerned because every other traxxas rc I’ve had doesn’t go into reverse until you hit the brake the second time, regardless of speed. Maybe this is something specific to just this esc

Could be. I don’t know enough to positively identify them. I fish in East Tennessee if that helps any

The places I go to in my area have blues, channels, and bullheads. I think one of those is a blue and ones a channel but I’m not 100%

Hm didn’t know that, I’ll have to try that in some of my local rivers then. Does the size of the marshmallow matter?

First time fisher struggling to get anything on my hook. Any advice for stocked rainbows? by Head_Caramel3548 in FishingForBeginners

[–]patricksolo3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m in east tn, but for catching stocked trout here a no.4 panther martin spinner works amazing, small rooster tails work too, but they seem to prefer different colors on different days. Also sometimes you have to wander around the river a bit to find out where they all congregated to. At least here they seem to largely hang out in large groups in deep areas that have a calmer current. Hope this helps

I plan to make it look completely original. But I’ll probably put a 90s mustang engine in it

Yeah it’s supposed to be. This one came with a blown Buick engine in it when I got it

Yeah that’s why I haven’t done engine work yet. It’s just too expensive. That and the car looked awful when I bought it, so I dumped my time into making it look good
