RE: The Evader Coalition ~ T.E.C.

You had to remove your spacer to get a 6 cell stick in your car?

RE: The Evader Coalition ~ T.E.C.

You can fit the 7 cell without the spacer - or you can use a hump if you ditch the stock battery strap and get a little creative. [sm=wink_smile.gif]

RE: The Evader Coalition ~ T.E.C.

Now that's what I like to hear! :) I'm just going to run it and see what happens. replacing a gear once in a while wouldn't be the worst thing in the world and I try to maintain my truck regularly.

RE: The Evader Coalition ~ T.E.C.

I've been running a few different 6 cell NIMHs up to this point. I had a buddy talk me into getting a 7 cell. I haven't received it (ordered from cheapbatterypacks.com). Now I'm regretting it a...

RE: The Evader Coalition ~ T.E.C.

OK guys, I am going to hash up a subject that just keeps coming back. This forum is so large, it's difficult to find the right info.

RE: The Evader Coalition ~ T.E.C.

But that's just one instance. I have an Evader and my two buddies have Rustlers. I can tell you that they have sunk much more money into repairs than I have.

OK someone with some experience with bodies answer this please.

I'd like to buy a body that has a wing built in. The EXT wing just pops off too much.

Well, let's make sure we are talking about the EXT.

It hasn't happened to me. Are the lock washers still on? I know that might be a dumb question, but thought I'd ask.

RE: The Evader Coalition ~ T.E.C.

I don't think that is accurate in reference to being more durable. I'm using a VXL in my Evader and my two friends are using Rustlers that come with the VXLs and we have about the same amount of...

RE: The Evader Coalition ~ T.E.C.

RE: What is Slip?

Well my first thought was that my mesh was not right and that may be the case since that was the first time I did it.

Let me throw this out there.

Everything ran well today but I noticed...

RE: What is Slip?

Ahh I see.

I appreciate the help.

I think that my slipper was way too loose. My spur gear got shreded today.

Is there a chance that the slipper being too loose would cause this?

What is Slip?

In the Evader EXT manual, the directions involvet tightening the nut all the way down and then back off two turns to adjust the slipper clutch.

The final step says to "Place the truck on the...

I have the EXT.

You mean the slipper is bad or was not adjusted properly?

This is only the second time I've run the thing and only the first time for any length of time.

My day wasn't as successful, I'm hoping someone can help.

However I noticed that my spur gear was shredding early...

RE: Why Is This Hobby Not Too Popular ???

I agree that people shouldn't bash other people's hobbies. Where is the respect?

Anyway, I don't want to get too far OT, but as a card collector I have to put in my two cents.

I'm anxious to see how it goes for you, I've been following your story with the brushless system.

I just installed the VXL last night and I'll get to test it out tomorrow at a track.

RE: TOWER HOBBIES SUCKS!!!!

I agree that they don't suck! They are my store or choice as well and they ship quickly!

But returns are slow and you should never try to exchange for something you need in a hurry.

RE: Why Is This Hobby Not Too Popular ???

I think that if you walked up to an average person on the street and asked them to name a "hobby", chances are some if not most of them would mention collecting baseball cards. It is a HUGE hobby.

RE: TOWER HOBBIES SUCKS!!!!

I'm in the same situation. They told me that they were about a week behind and it was true.

One return took exactly a week for it to show up and I'm expecting the other to be processed tomorrow...
