Volcano EPX Pro - Running 2s lipo.<div>
</div><div>I'm constantly bending the front dogbones... And I've noticed that the shocks don't seem to dampen all that much.  This truck has been driven for maybe a total of 2 hours over the last 3 weeks.  I've bent the front dogbones almost every day.  Last night I installed two universal shaft kits in the front in hopes that this would fix the bending of the dogbones, but after about 20 minutes with very minimal wrecking, the shafts were bent so much that they were hitting the springs on the shocks.</div><div>
</div><div>This is when I noticed that the shock dampening was virtually nothing.  When this truck arrived I never checked the oil in the shocks (not quite sure yet how to do this), I'm just wondering what wt. oil they come preloaded with? Also, what's a good wt. oil for bashing on a loose clay track?</div><div>
</div><div>Thanks in advance for the replies.</div>

RE: Redcat Racing Volcano Thread
 

I use 30 weight for bashing and my shocks wher doing the same thing so I stretched the springs out a little bit .Redcat said to replace the drive cups every 2 quarts of fuel. Look at the drive cups if there is a groove wore in them you should replace them that could be the problem.Hope this helps .???

RE: Redcat Racing Volcano Thread
 

To check the oil just unscrew the cap and look inside my shock cap was blue filled mine about half way .good luck</p>

RE: Redcat Racing Volcano Thread
 

I picked up a used volcano... What i'm wanting to know does redcat have the on and off switch with the wiring? also the rx box screw do they have replacements for that? thanks Terry

Vocano elec EXP pro

Can I extend the reciever attenna? Does not even reach out the top of body.

Simple as just splicing and making it longer?

RE: Redcat Racing Volcano Thread
 

Are you having range issues? if it is a 2.4G radio you dont need it to be long.

RE: Redcat Racing Volcano Thread
 

Still hesitates in and out thought that might be the issue, sticks out above the roof about 1/16 of a inch.

Already reset the low voltage cut off, sometimes its real herky jerky

RE: Redcat Racing Volcano Thread
 

redcat  told me that they went to fm recievers so extending probily wont help <div style="display: none; " onmouseover="javascript:this.className='popUpDivOn ';" onmouseout="javascript:this.className='popUpDivOff ';" class="popUpDivOff" ismouseover="false" id="popUpDiv" name="popUpDiv"> <div class="popupMenuImage" style="display:none" id="popupMenuImage" name="popupMenuImage"> <div id="div1"> [img]chrome-extension://amfclgbdpgndipgoegfpkkgobahigbcl/images/fb.png[/img] </div> <div id="div2"> [img]chrome-extension://amfclgbdpgndipgoegfpkkgobahigbcl/images/fblike.png[/img] </div> <div id="div3"> [img]chrome-extension://amfclgbdpgndipgoegfpkkgobahigbcl/images/twitter.png[/img] </div> <div id="div4"> [img]chrome-extension://amfclgbdpgndipgoegfpkkgobahigbcl/images/gmail.png[/img] </div> </div> <div class="popupMenuVideo" style="display:none" id="popupMenuVideo" name="popupMenuVideo"> <div id="div1"> [img]chrome-extension://amfclgbdpgndipgoegfpkkgobahigbcl/images/google.png[/img] </div> <div id="div2"> [img]chrome-extension://amfclgbdpgndipgoegfpkkgobahigbcl/images/fblike.png[/img] </div> <div id="div3"> [img]chrome-extension://amfclgbdpgndipgoegfpkkgobahigbcl/images/twitter.png[/img] </div> <div id="div4"> [img]chrome-extension://amfclgbdpgndipgoegfpkkgobahigbcl/images/gmail.png[/img] </div> </div> </div>

QSR1
I am having the same issues with my volcano. Just seems to want to sit there and be herky jerky. Have you figured out the problem yet? let me know!

RE: Redcat Racing Volcano Thread
 

can volcano s30 be upgraded to a 2 speed transmission?

RE: Redcat Racing Volcano Thread
 

It appears the transmission will bolt up but I am looking into getting the parts to try it now.

RE: Redcat Racing Volcano Thread
 

let us know i was thinking of the same thing

RE: Redcat Racing Volcano Thread
 

Hi, have been searching for an answer but can not find it.

My rear dogbones on my oldHimotoEldorada/Volcanobottom out in the cups before my suspension does. So it seems like my dogbones are to long. They measure about 90mm in length.

Any shorter dogbones available?
Are the newer Volcano dogbones longer than older Himoto's?

Also I know about the fuel tubing trick and that is not the problem.

Thanks

RE: Redcat Racing Volcano Thread
 

mmm is like 87mm volcano s30. search on the redcatracing web pag, in the manual and then write down in ebay.

RE: Redcat Racing Volcano Thread
 

Updat to the two speed upgrade. It can be done very easily but the final gearing with the stock tires is way too tall, if you used wheels with a smaller diameter it should be OK.

RE: Redcat Racing Volcano Thread
 

Hello all,
I just got a volcano pro for xmas. I am about to read the forum. I have some 2 cell lipos on the way. I hear this thing will really kick it with better batteries. I already hooked up lights to it to ride at night but last night i only came back with 3 wheels ...lol i found the other with a flash light. But not the nut. Where is the best place to order spares??

RE: Redcat Racing Volcano Thread
 

I just got 2 lipos , 2 cell 2650 mah, and no more twitchyness. And so much power
I love it !!

RE: Redcat Racing Volcano Thread
 

Looking to get a bigger motor for my S30, does anybody know of one that just bolts right in???

RE: Redcat Racing Volcano Thread
 

does anyone know the max nimh my brushless volcano can handle

RE: Redcat Racing Volcano Thread
 

Im not sure about that but this is what a 2 cell 2650 mah lipo does. Its doesnt need more than this i promise. And the puch is on 1. On 3 it wheelies all the time and i havnt tryed 4 yet.
Does anyone want to buy my stock battery for cheep
