Word to the wise, Atomic Diffs aren't good with the Vendetta

Now, keep in mind I was running the diffs at 1/4 turn out but I wasn't on it too bad just driving around with a wheely here and there. The last wheely really screwed it up...
Even though it was a...

RE: Rebuild Vendetta ST Ball Differentials

Rebuild Vendetta ST Ball Differentials

The differentials on my vendetta are shot. When I spin the diff it is very ruff. How do I go about rebuilding these?

What balls will work etc?

RE: Need help with power supply

Apache 2500.

It only works once in a while... UGH.

Help please?
The charger says that it only accepts 12-15v.
Would it be bad to use a 4A 16v supply?

RE: Pure beginner....

I would read up on Li-Pos. There is a lot to learn about them and I don't want to get into too much detail but I recommend buying one of these:

RE: Need help gearing my Vendetta ST (Brushless Li-Po)

Alright, well if I smooth the throttle out the cogging goes away.
I tried with 2 different Li-Pos:
2500 mAH 15C 3S
2250 mmAH 25C 3S

Both cogged but smooths out.
I have stock spur which I...

RE: Need help gearing my Vendetta ST (Brushless Li-Po)

Alright, so I got the gears and began running. I think the term is cogging. Well it does it non-stop and gets way to hot to touch.
I am running a Mamba 25 ESC. My hobby shop said that that esc may...

RE: Walmart Warning!!

I would disagree. I highly doubt that walmart is going to stock all spare parts needed for the monster/expensive vehicle. I think if anything will happen it will boost the LHS's income.

RE: How to convert an ATX power supply to rc use

Alright, I figured out what was wrong. It MIGHT help to actually plug the thing in. It worked and yes the fan turned on.

Now instead of buying a 10w 10hm resistor, can I use that bulb as a load?...
