Status: offline 		Is the stub axles a major weak point on tsunami, or nitro rc. Have my tsunami for two week now, and broke three stub axle and two rear axle holder's. (Have no part in stock ) Broke them off going over very small speed bump in garage parking lot. It jumps about 3 inches, land and snap. . Being a mechanic I fix them up with welder and cotter pins, but want to know if im just driving it wrong or just bad parts in general.

Status: offline 		As I have been converting my buggy into a Tsunami I have learned a lot here are some pictures of what I have already, and with the aluminum upper plate I like it because it makes it look better I think, you have to have a hump pack battery for it if you switch to the aluminum upper plate, you can have the recharging plug to the side behind the steering servo, thats how I have mine.

]

I broke two within a few minutes of one another
It was cold out and I was really abusing my Tsunami
I own 2 tornado's and a himoto road car also and I never broke a axle
I believe the stance and big tires might have done it-could have been the cold?
I have big proline tires on all the rest of my cars-but with wide 2.2 rims---maybe the 2.6 rims stock on the Tsunami is the problem??
Never thought about welding the broken ones (I'm a retires ASE tech)-great idea I have a mig and gas welder here

get the 42 and 47 tooth spur gears

06032, 06033


When would you use the 42 vs the 47?
I want to get both but not sure when I would swap them out.

Status: offline 		direct fit, plugs in the same way the regular battery holder does. It depends on the mah but they should last longer and have more power than typical alkaline batteries.
