RE: Working on Truckenstein, need advice

While this project certainly sounds interesting - it really sounds like it's going to be a (needlessly?) heavy beast! Remember, the more weight you add to the project, the more stress each...

RE: HPI Baja Buggy!!!!

HPI is definately going in the right direction, I feel. Gasoline power has a huge appeal to most people the first time they see one in person, especially if they own electric or nitro; the "bigness"...

RE: How to remove/polish???

Having polished alot of custom aluminum parts I've made (using bench wheels, small dremel type buffers, and lots of Mothers Alum. Polish by hand), my opinion is, there is no such thing as "just a lil...

RE: GP-Maxx Project

Um, it's Brad. Yep, no time for much of anything this past year; boats, trucks, fishing, hunting, nothing but landscaping and honey-doo projects!

In a nutshell: cut an axle yoke down, milled...

RE: GP-Maxx Project

Most tuning on 2-stroke gasoline engines revolve around 2 things:
1. Effecient intake/exhaust; increasing the carb size allows more air/fuel mix to be fed to the engine. More effecient exhaust...

RE: GP-Maxx Project

I run zenoah powered gas boats, and considered a zen for this project. But I wanted something a bit more compact; I could have bought a cheap used trimmer engine and spent some time and money...

GP-Maxx Project

I've always wanted to stick a gasoline engine in a T-maxx, and inspired by Dr. Honda's Mega Maxx creation, I jumped right in.
Well, I’ve made some progress on the “GP-Maxx Project” (short for...

RE: does anyone know how to reverse a tranny

Here is Dr. Honda's build notes on how to do exactly what you're attempting.

I'm using a different approach: to retain the stock slipper clutch (to protect tranny gears), I'm going to mount a...

RE: First R/C truck for 5 year old?

Good choice on the Stampede!
I bought my two older sons each stampedes for X-mas a year ago, both "near new" ebay purchases, which (with a new body on one of them) were in very good shape. My...

Gear pitch questions

A few gearing questions for you:

1. Anyone know what pressure angle Traxxas 32p gears use? 14-1/2 degree? 20 degree? other?

2. Do other 32p gears by other makers work with the T-maxx...

RE: The Madness Continues. The Mega Maxx Gasser! (update 5-28-05 Video)

RE: Maxx Gasser Video (follow up on camper Fuel)

Thanks Doc!
My brother-in-law and I were discussing this project, and he mentioned an Emaxx tranny vs. the Tmaxx tranny (he's owned both, and had both apart). The advantage of the Emaxx tranny:...

RE: swamp kongs

My bro-in-law has a set of Jumbo Kongs on Diamond rims for his brushless Emaxx. He tried them recently, and they are somewhat of a joke - probably ok for rock crawling, but due to their tall...

RE: NEW TEKIN 1/18 BRUSHLESS SYSTEM!!

RE: Associated RC18T

I really like my RC18T - out of the box it's much faster than a Mini-T; and the 4WD gets you out of tight situations. Dialing up the steering allows about a 3' turning diameter at slow speed - about...

RE: Associated RC18T

The stock screws are plenty long enough (without looking it up, they appeared well over 10 - 12mm long). I also countersunk the mount locations in the lexan almost all the way, so there is barely...
