mr mugen,

try contacting duratrax and see if they can hook you up with some new parts. Maybe they will be understanding. Hey, you never know they could even send you some cvd's and ball diffs. I...

RE: OFFICIAL VENDETTA THREAD!!!!!!!!!

The dtx ball diffs and steel cvd's are a good combo and will withstand brushless. Just remember to break the ball diffs in and re-tighten as necessary. You could probably start with the rear as long...

RE: My Vendetta ST

mine actually held up fine to the brushed vr3 motor. I only lost a couple when using brushless. If you get the cvd's just make sure to locktight the screws that hold the wheel in place. They have a...

RE: My Vendetta ST

yep,

The stock esc sucks. Pretty much useless. The steel cvd's work great, but you will find that you need to get ball diffs (if running brushless). Also, you need to get the servo hold down....

RE: vendetta?

The stock vr3 is a fast motor if you run lipos and a good esc. I could see snapping plastic driveshafts if you were really rough on the throttle. My plastic ones lasted quite a long time though.

RE: 12turn motor

the team orion motor you mention is a budget mod motor. The other 2 are better, but I guess that depends on what u want to spend. The orion revolution 12x2 is in the same class of the other 2.

RE: zx5 vs sb v2 pro vs b44 witch is better ?

Good 19 turn motors will get it moving. Komodo dragon or checkpoint money 19. They are not exactly low maintenance though. You will need to change brushes and cut the comm.
