Awesome! we didn't do any unboxing pics at the time. Wish we did now. Liking the Blue/Black combination too. It goes well with the seals and anodized parts. Now go play, +1 on breaking her in proper too

Once you power her on, listen for any buzzing, I'm sure if you have read through Summit and Revo forums you've heard of making sure the steering servos are aligned and not fighting. Also, with the body off, shift the transmission from high to low and back. Watch the servo pull and push the pin in and out of the transmission. You can also unlock and lock the diffs. I'm sur this is a little boring, but you are accomplishing several things.
1. You are familiarizing yourself with the proper functions and their movement.
2. If something's not quite right, better to find and adjust now before a servo goes south.
3. You can ooh and ahh at all the cool features that you could only read about before

Summit is Beast!!!

Help me out folks. I ran my Beast of a Summit at the park last night and hit up some ice puddles that I broke through and drive the summit around in. Probably as deep as the hood of the truck and the MOTOR DIED! Whats up with that? I thought this baby was waterproof? Maybe I need to Corrosion X it? Ideas? Thoughts?

Summit is Beast!!!

Hmm thats strange bc ive had mine over the roof in water more times than i can count on both hands and never had a prob with the titan. Ive been thru 2 titans but only from overheating. Id call traxxas.

Hmm that is what I thought too....I'm on my second Titan also, first one was just used a long time. I installed the new one maybe 6 months ago but only ran it maybe 20 times. It died in the middle of a puddle and the motor smelled burnt as heck, steering was still responsive but no go on the Titan. I've already bought a new Titan motor but i'm a bit wporried why it died in that puddle. I'm running Turnigy 2S lipos, same one;s i've been running in it since the first motor a while back.

Hey Kenny what tires/wheels are those? I am currently running the Big JOe's

I turned my truck on and the steering servo on the left does make some noise the right on is silent how do I go about correcting this I have never had a truck with dual servo steering

Summit is Beast!!!

Unhook the steering arms just leave the servo horns on. Turn the truck on and center the steering on the controller. Then u will have to adjust the little links that connect them. They have that little nut in the middle u will see it. Just get everything nice and square as far as the servo saver goes. Then adjust the turnbuckles till the tires r str8.

Well after saying nothing had broken on the summit, as far as a arms bumpers and such, i broke my front bumper today. I got alot of video and i think the hit that broke it so ill post that up later.

Mayberry Kid

I smell an RPM replacement part coming along

So far that's the only original part that has broken on mine too! Iwent to fleabay and got an RPM Revo bumper mount so Icould lower the body a little more without haggling the front of it for clearance.

I did pretty much destroy a revo wheelie bar, totally my fault.

nave88

Thanks for the video link and other tips on adjusting my servos guy I think I have it about as good as I can I'm not getting any buzzing accept here and there but I touch the throttle or steering and the buzzing will stop. I'd like to get it more dialed in as my trim is to the left a bit but not enough to bug me... Yet. 

Summit is Beast!!!

New video from today. Dont think u will be able to watch from a mobile device, has to be pc for some reason when i post from iphone.

Summit is Beast!!!

Those are the 40 series rok lox tires and axial beadlock 8 spoke oversized wheels.

That place looks pretty awesome to drive at I hope I can find something like that around here I plan on doing a little bash hunting this weekend. I have a couple ideas one of which is right in front the court house its a summit play ground out there but we'll see. I dont need anymore wreckless driving tickets.

nave88

What springs do you guys use? I'd like to have a little more stiffness so it doesnt bottom out so badly when I land. If I just tighten the coil overs would that be enough you think or will that put too much pressure on the shock caps and potentionaly break a seal?

Summit is Beast!!!

Just move ure push rods to the last hole on the a arms.

You called your new Summit a Pig??? shame on you Nave
