RE: -Official Traxxas JATO Thread-

I agree with above. I was just thinking that, if you could find one that came with a 2.5 (some did a while backnot sure if they still do...?), the slightly lessened power would make it more...

RE: -Official Traxxas JATO Thread-

:D actually, that is a very good point. And YES, better batteries are the key. If you buy the VXL, you buy a car that is already LiPo ready. I am somewhat inexperienced in my own usage of LiPos, but...

RE: -Official Traxxas JATO Thread-

It's been awhile since I had my Jato, but it is quite the handful. If you'd really like one, go for one with a 2.5 engine. The TRX 3.3 is a pain to keep running, and it's honestly too fast for its...

RE: Looking at a craigslist buy: Vendetta ST. Go or No???

Well, it WAS a balance charge...but after that first time I charged it (when it didn't actually say that it was done), I charged it again yesterday and it got all of the way to the full charge mark...

RE: Looking at a craigslist buy: Vendetta ST. Go or No???

Well. Last night was my first chance to run it, and it was a blast. I popped in the Lipos (straight out of the package!) and got about 15 mins of run time each.

...I thought that they had been...

RE: Looking at a craigslist buy: Vendetta ST. Go or No???

Yup. Backwards.

Also, as a further correction to the problem (the arms were still quite loose), I ended up making dogbone springs from a pen spring, cutting it into VERY small coils and putting...

RE: Looking at a craigslist buy: Vendetta ST. Go or No???

Well, here it is to anyone who wants to know: my new (old) SC18, bought for 40 bucks missing a brushless motor, lipos, and a charger, which I have already ordered. What do you think? And suggestions?...

RE: Looking at a craigslist buy: Vendetta ST. Go or No???

Lol, guys. I was looking through craigslist again today, and I quickly realized that I was FAR too impatient to wait a week or more for this guy to call back when he was in town. I've set up a...

RE: Looking at a craigslist buy: Vendetta ST. Go or No???

Actually, it was. I went ahead and looked it up, and it appears as if at least the buggy shares a near-identical platform with the LRP Shark. I'm not sure if the ST has a counterpart, but a lot of...

RE: Looking at a craigslist buy: Vendetta ST. Go or No???

Gahhh... I wish I didn't have to give up this lead. I always liked being the odd one out (and a Vendetta is kind of that way).

One secondary line of approach consists of this: snag the car, buy...

Hey guys, it's been a LONG time since I've been on rcuniverse, and I used to be involved in the 1/10th scale scene. I had a Rustler, a Jato 3.3, and a Redcat POS.

RE: -Official Traxxas JATO Thread-

All u need is the carb body, the same thing happened to me a
month or so ago, they make those carbs extremely flimsy. Either way, it's an easy fix, so u'll be ready to drive in notime.

RE: Official Traxxas Jato 3.3 Thread

The stock rims are 2.8 but most of the time (besides foams) it's good to go with 2.2s when u run normal tires. Just make sure they don't rub on the wheel hubs cuz sometimes the wheels don't have a...
