RE: Traxxas Summit
Does this look like a good way to break in the titan? Or does any1 know of a better way?

RE: Traxxas Summit
Ifinaly got the chance to take mine somewhere other than my yard. We went camping this weekend and there was a couple small rock and graval piles that I could play on. Got some good air with it a bunch jumping the gravel piles and did a little rock crawling with it on a rock pile. The only isues I created are a torn CV boot on the rear axle and a bent front rod that goes up to the shock. I must have hit something good and hard cause its bent clear back to the drive shaft. Now all I need are better batteries so I have more bash time. I will put a couple pics up when I get them downloaded.
Oh ya one Question. It seems that the slipper cluch was good and tite when new and I would only hear it slip if I stabbed the throtle on pavement but now I am hearing what I balive to be it slipping a lot more. Is this something I should tighten up now that its starting to wear in?

Awesome dude. , and yeah i've bent 2 front pushrods too, i have black ones now whichI love.
And for the slipper the general rule of thumb is to tighten it all the way that turn it out 1/4 to 1/2 turn out as a starter

RE: Traxxas Summit
I just checked out that servo Beast and it looks good for the money but it has a 23T spline, you might need to buy [link=http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&W=002155014&I=TRAC6345&P=K]these[/link] and use the horns made for JR servos.

If I were you I would open up the servo and put some around the gears, just for good measure.
