Hi

Small quick question, Has any tried putting the Chrome rims onto the Volcano SV, As far as i've been told they fit but just wanted to make 100% sure...

Thanks

ehroof

what chrom rims?

naviuk

Hi

Sorry my bad, the crhome rims that go std with the STX i think, they a std part of one of the upper market redcat trucks...

Thanks

ehroof

the stx comes with green or yellow rims, the sv comes with chrome rims. anything with a 12 mm hex will mount just may need to do a little fixing to make them work 100% since the redcats have a big offset, i put chrome rustler rims on my tsunami and white rustler rims on my tornado sp with wider not taller tires.

Hey guys I got some volcano stx questions if someone could answer these questions that would be great.

Where can you get a fail safe and how much will it cost?
Where can you get aluminium suspension parts?
What trucks have same parts as STX?
Where can i get hump batterys and how much does it cost?
Where can I get purple aluminium shocks?
What kind of gas should i get?

These are all the questions i got for now.

aluminum upgrades you can get fron a redcat dealer or redcat racing website
http://www.redcatracing.com/ just call the # on the site and Robert will help you. To up grade use HPI savage for some parts like 17T clutch bell and traxxas 4146X clutch spring. Use tutorials on rc universe redcat support forum. Redcat also has hump pack and purple shocks ,use 20% nitro at LHS(local hobby shop)

Wow, this thread is awesome. I was able to "repair" my clutch spring (after one tank of fuel) with the info on this thread. I ran my Volcano SV for the first time Friday...what a Rush! If it wasn't for you guys I would not have known what to do when she quit running. I have ordered the replacement clutch bell and spring which should be here some time next week. My wife said she would not find this fun at all...running and fixing...I told her it is a "guy thing". Totally cool. Thanks again.


Redcat Rules! Volcano SV .18 vertex

i could not belive how easy i got the spring on there and got the thing all put back together after reading threads on this forum. people with all kinds of rc's (REVO,JATO,ECT.) post on here because it's the bomb!!! it got kind of quiet on here for a while but i think it's because people just had nothin to ask[8D]

hi there

this is my first post. I am very impressed with the forum here.

why is it so hart to get the truck to idle. it idles for 10 sec's and then shuts of.

please help me with that.

and what are the factory settings on the carb for this truck

thanks
Frank

ehroof

maybe its running to rich or the idle is too low. factory is 2 1/2 out on the high and flush with the collar on the low.

diddlfs

should i see any white smoke while it is in idle?

ehroof

not much, only when your accelerating and driving, you should see a trail of blueish smoke.

I went out today and let it rip.
I had a friend with me. He tuned it for me. 1 pull and the thing is purring like a cat.
I had a great afternoon and the truck was flying. Nothing broke but i did lost the 2 screws holding the exhaust in place.
of curse those where the ones i did not loctite.
I was impressed with the speed of the truck.
