volcano transmission
hey guys, i'm new here and new to nitro.
i have been into electric for a long time, but decided to try nitro. i have done alot of research on nitro, and i know what i'm in for as a first timer.
i went with the redcat volcano sv.
i have a question about the transmission.
i haven't gotten the truck yet, it's still on the way to me via ups.
anyway, it has the single speed trans with the slipper clutch set up.
Is the clutch adjustable ? cab you adjust how much it slips / doesn't slip for different traction ?
also, i am thinking about installing the 2 speed trans. in it if i don;t like the single speed / slipper combo.
has anyone installed the a 2 speed in a volcano ?
i know that you can buy the volcano with the 2 speed already in it, but actually it's cheaper to buy the single speed version, and then buy the 2 speed bell and trans separately.
like i said, i haven't even gotten the truck yet so i have nothing to look at to see how hard / easy it will be to do the 2 speed swap.
thanks.
