I run the Fatuba s3305 in all my rc's and have not had any issues, IMO, very good solid servo.

bigstang

Same. They r a very good servo.

ok.. uhm my nest won't start, and when it does it gets hot as fast as a light bulb turns on haha but im kind of worried about it, and right now i can't afford to go out and get a new motor, or a rebuild kit..... i still have compression and i set the needles back to factory, im running sidewinder 20 % with 12% oil.... i really don't know, problems started happening rite after i did the diff rebuild kit[:@]

docphysics

how does the engine run? how hot is it getting? how do you know its hot?

Need you guys opinion, I have 60$ to spend on my vader. I have tossed around the idea of the new anodized tuned pipe for my new OS motor, do you guys think it's worth it or worth maybe gettin some alum. knuckles and stuff instead. I just don't know if I will see any big difference with the new pipe verses the DTX ones. I really take you guys opinions seriously and could use some opinions to sway my thinkinThanks!!

drunkenjustin

im not sure but i took it out and put my other .18 motor in... it's not as fast but it works, i have only plastic arms and trust me these arms are like unbreakable, i hit a tree going like top speed and only broke a loer shock ball thing and i hit a log going as fast as i could then i stripped the steering servo.... 3rd one since i got it, and the new motor i put in it won't start unless the rear tyres are up off the ground and i forgot to turn down my throttle trim and stripped the spur gear b ut oither than that it was a gud day haha

bigstang

yeah dont get a new pip save a few more bucks and get a OS cvrx. or get the aluminum and check ebay.

drunkenjustin

i want to either get the os.15 or os.18

bigstang

18 all the way baby

Thing is real fast.Its been adult owned and driven. Starts with a few pulls, just put in a New pull start bearing($26). Comes with a CVEC tunable pipe(muffler) which u can set the spring inside of the pipe so u can have more top, middle or low end power, and makes it sound great. Also it has rear Hard Anodized rear shocks in the front to give it more ground clearance. The rear shocks are stock rear shocks. They both have green(hard) springs all around with blue shock covers on. Also come with a t-bone bashing front bumper which is painted to match the truck body. Any questions just ask!

This truck is ready to run just ad some fuel and bat. and go

2. Venom speed meter which does all this: Think you’re fast? Prove it! Use the Top Speed function to determine if your set-up change increases speed and how fast you are going. Track your motor usage between rebuilds using the Lifetime Odometer. Know what distance you traveled during the 30 min Main with the Trip Odometer and never be caught with a dead battery in your car with the built-in Digital Volt Meter. Is brand new and still has the little plastic cover on it.

3. An O.S. .18 cvrx(pull start) motor. thing has tons of compression and its real real fast.

4. 4 brand new Moab tires for extra clearance with crome claw rims.(on the truck)

2 new Proline Edge tires for the front and 2 used ones(all pre glued from the factory)

2. new Proline Road Hawgs

2. almost new, proline traction. only ran then for 10 mins in the sand.

5. All Aluminum Tranny with carbid diff balls and carbide thrust balls from Acer racing,just rebuilt.

10. Associated Fuel Primer Pump Monster GT to prim the fuel, works Awsome also has a GP fuel filter with a small screen mesh inside to catch anything.

drunkenjustin

yeah but im crazed on the look of the . 15 http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...&I=LXBZ30&P=SM , i reallly like how the head looks, im not too crazed on the power of the .18's anyways so i figure i'll save 10 bucks for now and just get that motor then next month or sumthing i'll get a .18 cvrx?? sound good haha i wanna start stocking up on motors so i can make my own custom nitro rc, i wanna make a nitro sand rail

yoster

Not to put a downer on your idea, but that engine is an OLD OS engine. Barely puts out over 1/2 hp; won't even come close to the stock engine that came in your truck. Waste of money imo

scottywilkes

the OS15 CV is outdated now, the internals are very basic, its a entry level motor. The cooling head dosnt do a great job, the motor tends to get quite hot, plus the fact it dosnt have alot of power, not even as much as the DTX18.

Id seriously recomend against it. Modded with a hyper head there a brilliant little motor, but stock, they are very basic

drunkenjustin

ok thanks for telling me, i am just gonna spend the extra 10 bucks and go with the os .18 cvrx, just wondering does the one way bearing from the dtx 18 fit on the os .18 cvrx??? i have the kwik pit starter and, i hate pullstarts and i just wanna throw the kwik pit plate on and be able to use it.

scottywilkes

pretty sure it dosnt, different diametre starter shafts

drunkenjustin

DAMN!

DuratraxNEST

Hey guys I know one of you guys have the AE blue fuel pump
Could somebody please post a pick of their truck with it on or explain where it goes?
It goes right on the fuel line from the tank to the motor right?
And as for a fuel line shut off clamp should i put it before or after the pump?

bigstang

why would u need a fuel pump???? and the clamp would go between the tank and motor

docphysics

I think he means the MGT primer. I don't have any pics of mine, I think you have some though.

docphysics

It goes between the fuel tank and the carb.

bigstang

yup here ya go look in the back

bigstang

anyone want a psp pm me and ill send u the egay link lol, lets see how long this one stays up be its deleted
