is there a set of shocks that will fit my volcano sv i need to put new ones on and would like to go to the local hobby shop to get them.
also is there anybody out there that would have extra parts that they would like to get rid of

RE: Redcat Racing Volcano Thread
 

the t-maxx ones work. a couple people have put them on theirs and love them, the only thing is at the hobby store they are super expensive. like 30 bucks for 4. and ive seen em go for like 30 and lower for 8 on ebay

qiuck question. whenever i run my truck the engine mount screws fall out and i know u can use locktite but if u want to be able to remove the screws again what should i do to keep them in.

RE: Redcat Racing Volcano Thread
 

if u use BLUE u jst get ur screw driver and take em out... it only holds so the vibration wont make it come out....
if u use RED u might have to heat it with a lighter before removing it...
I use blue on all metal to metal screws and I havent lost a single screw on any of my 3 rcs....

cool thanks

RE: Redcat Racing Volcano Thread
 

another question. what is the plastic gear that is connected to the clutch bell in the gearbox

RE: Redcat Racing Volcano Thread
 

SPUR GEAR.. just look on the volcano parts and u will see it... it comes with the smaller alluminum one... I dnt knw the part number... they tend to strip fast if u have it meshed improperly... I have never stripped one on any of my rcs... they are cheap they are like 5 bucks I m not sure... I will see if I find any link right now to it...

RE: Redcat Racing Volcano Thread
 

08033 thts the number to the part u need..also they are making the same part on METAL so it wont strip tht easy anymore but I dnt knw the number

hay hi yall. i was out side running my truck and every time i hit a jump it would nose dive. is there a way to get the truck to level out in a jump, or is there something wrong with it, or is it my driving?

RE: Redcat Racing Volcano Thread
 

do you know the type or the part# . and thank you for your reply.

RE: Redcat Racing Volcano Thread
 

If you let off the throttle in mid air, the truck will nose dive. Try hitting the brakes if you want to do a front flip. Better have lots of air! Nail the throttle to get it to backflip. These trucks are light and with alot of weight in the tire, so they respond really quickly to throttle...

RE: Redcat Racing Volcano Thread
 

If you have enough air u can play with the throttle to see what you have to do to keep it level

RE: Redcat Racing Volcano Thread
 

yes if you are nose diving then keep on the throttle a little bit. you will get used to it. but if you hit the brakes then the car will nose dive, if you give it gas then it will do the opposite.

RE: Redcat Racing Volcano Thread
 

this may sound stupid but this is the problem that even the place where I got it from won't fix


so I start the truck, it runs, but it won't move, we replaced the gear, but it still won't move and he nor I can't find a problem with it

any ideas about what should I do?

RE: Redcat Racing Volcano Thread
 

check your drive cups going from the tranny (thing that clutchbell meshes with) to the front and rear diffs. there is a little grub screw on them that holds them on the shaft. they come loose sometimes and it will make your car not move, or if only ones comes loose then you will have drive to only the front or rear. thats my only guess

RE: Redcat Racing Volcano Thread
 

It's always a good idea to locktight all the metal to metal screws before you run anyway. So now would be a good time to go through the whole car and take each metal to metal screw out one at a time and start locktighting them with blue lock tight.

RE: Redcat Racing Volcano Thread
 

I Believe that i have to replace my receiver because i cant get my truck to respond to the remote very good any more. What receiver do i need to purchase? Part number etc. i see two of them on the redcat site and not sure which one to purchase?

RE: Redcat Racing Volcano Thread
 

I have a new volcano and i destroyed the centre diff. I put the new steel parts in and now it drives like half speed. It was tuned perfect but now seems to be blowing alot of smoke out the pipe. What should I be doing to get this truck running like it was before the diff went? Thanks

RE: Redcat Racing Volcano Thread
 

check out the mesh between the cluthbell and the trans... maybe its too tight....(just a guess)

RE: Redcat Racing Volcano Thread
 

i just got a volcano s30 and am new to this and think i burnt out my glow plug on my break in run. after my fourth fill up it would not start again.is it a certain glow plug thats goes in it or can a use any or which ones. can someone please help a newbie out.

I've only run the OS A3, though it had an OS8 in it when I got it (used). The A3 ran better, for sure.
