i stripped my servo, and my spur gear so im pretty much out until i can make up my mind on what i want to order, im ordering from advantagehobby.com

docphysics

no, leave your needles as you last had them, and tune from there. Factory settings are way to rich. If you changed nitro %, that will affect your tune. But switching brands with the same nitro % shouldn't be too big of a change.

JerB

K thanks, yeah the nitro and oil content is the same as before. seeing as it hasnt been run in 6 months should I make some slow runs at first before I make some faster runs?

brownstone101

yeah i would shake the cobwebs out the 1st tank but she will run right back into place

question,
im not raceing and im realy just looking to rebuild my evader back into a decent bullet proof truck for light bashing/running. my question is like the savage has dogbones and those things were just easy to deal with and got the job done. will the dog bones from the electric evader EXT and output cups work or would they be worth geting. i got like 2-2.5 gallons on my cvds and they egged out and were bad. would dog bones be a good bullet proof upgrade or just a snap and crap upgrade?
nothin against the cvds by the way just wondering in terms of long use and abuse who would stand up better or if it just wont work?
jw thanks

drunkenjustin

i have dogbones on my other rig and i have put that thing thru h3|_|_ and back and theyre still not busted so i'd sey go for it

brownstone101

was it a nitro evader? or normal and how hard was it to install or normal like cvds? jw if u needed any other parts for it or those 2 will drop in and go

also idk if this has ever been brought up but u know how u lose eclips and the pin drops out. i tryed useing a thread pin from my rustler (they theread in to the a arm and capture the rest) and the small ones works for the C hubs and the biger ones are a little long and a little thick but u take a drill bit and lightly open it (dosnt need much to get it in) and cut the rest off and u wont have to worry about eclips in the front if your looking for bash ready. i have not tryed the rear rusty pins in the rear evader yet is the rear A arms but the small ones go right in the c hub and rear hub.
just an idea.

drunkenjustin

it was an evader it was easy, just take the pins out of the cvd's then pull them out and put the dog bones in and put the pin in and bolt the tire on and go

brownstone101

ok yeah mainly i was wondering in sence of any other parts but thats real easy ima go with that since the cvds i havent done to hot with and just they dont stay cvds to long and i just need th meat durablity so yeah thanks

drunkenjustin

no problem man, im actually looking into going back to cvd's for racing and dog bones for bashing, we'll see how it all goes haha

brownstone101

lol yeah u should see how my evader looks right now [X(] it was my 1st ever truck and i didnt know much about how important it is to keep up on all the right mantence and it just turned into crap. im missing screws everywere and now im looking back on my work like thats not mine.....

now that ive had a savage and now into electric were you can tell were somethings suffering easyer ive learened alot and it wont be hard to get this thing rollin in no time. but yeah put out a 15$ tower order for mostley hardwere. im gona salavage what all i got and get what i got remounted on the chassi and replace what i need. get the dog bones and just use my idler and diff till one blows then go to the aluminum or hardend steel and just upgrade as i go till i got a decent rig. got a friend gona sell me a .12 or .15 (dont rember the motor he said he has liek 6 of them but probly a o.s) for like 30$ also means ima have to get a starter box but one of the hard moments when i was like 13 was that cheap pull start.... so yeah its gona move up in the world in no time. i just wana have some fun this summer im tired of putin so much $ into it to not get the fun factor out of it because of not being able to realy run anywere but my property so being 16 i can get my drivers licence and get a job this summer and defintly find some bashing spots [8D]

drunkenjustin

yeah im 16 too but i don't really have to worry about anything because if i go to my grandparents house there's this huge empty lot across the street and their street is not busy at all and with all the pot holes it's a good spot for me to run haha and they have a huge back yard so i can run there too but im kinda down for the moment because i stripped my servo and my spur gear, and i need a motor rebuild, so im down for prolly this month then next month i will have a truck that runs beautifly, the motor i have in it now is just crap it's like an acme .18 motor and wow does it ever raunch

Legendpilot
