The only upgrade I'd do besides bearings is a 3rd shock mod, or buy some stronger torsion springs for the rear axle pivot (Those stock ones don't last long). I ended up with some stainless ones from...

Wow, that's a sick T Maxx! That thing must haul some serious ass! I have ran those in the past, but I prefer the starter shafts that fit into a drill because I have a really nice cordless drill. I...

Right on, clean it out well and it should work. I converted mine to forward only years ago, though it now runs a gray trans anyways because it's a big block build. It was worth losing reverse for me...

If I were starting out with monster trucks these days, I'd start with something smaller and less expensive personally. I'd definitely say stick with Traxxas simply for the parts supply. Take a look...

Take a look at the Hobbywing Quicrun WP 860 Dual, it's about the cheapest brushed dual ESC there is. I've seen them in Clodbusters and many other old school dual motor trucks. It only has one battery...

Wow, that's a hell of a drop test! It sustained much less damage than I would have expected. Now, if you can get it to land on it's wheels from 50 feet, that would be interesting:D

This is an old thread, but I'll throw an opinion at it for the hell of it:D

I've seen pictures of the internals of this engine, and it looks similar to a standard RTR .21. It's most likely a...

Awesome info here! I just took a look at some of the Novas. I like looks of the Roma .25 and the Plus 28-7, but can't find any with a pull start. Is that an accessory that needs to be installed later...

I'm a huge fan of O.S. and LRP both. Agree to disagree I guess;) The O.S. engines are generally not as fast as most Italian mills are for sure, but easier to tune in my experience. Though it has been...

Brushes

Hey all I have a few questions for the old school brushed guys. I recently got 2 electric trucks, a 1/16 Revo and a Lunchbox. I run brushed motors in both of them at this time. I have sealed stock...

I'm not an expert on the Revo by any means, but I'll share some big block conversion experience and things I've read about it. I think you can still get the Traxxas big block kit for the Revo, but...

Well, I'm really not sure either unfortunately. You should definitely be running hardened steel pinions when running a steel spur, though. Even if the gear mesh is good, that steel spur can still...
