RE: OFFICIAL Redcat Racing TRUCK thread

Yes, I've picked it up, and looked at it while holding it in my hand (just like up on a block of wood). It does appear the rear tires rotate at a much much much faster rate than the front tires.

RE: OFFICIAL Redcat Racing TRUCK thread

RE: Stripped Gear Perhaps?

I will play around with the servo tomorrow night when I get back from traveling and let you guys know what I found out. It doesn't move the arm at all when I break, so it sounds like that might be...

RE: Stripped Gear Perhaps?

RE: Redcat Racing Volcano Thread

RE: Average Runtimes - Volcano

Yes, I was thinking ballpark of 200 and I will be happy. When it was running at 165, it seemed sluggish with a much lower pitch on the engine at full throttle. Now (as of last night) when it was...
