    What maintenance is needed on a T-Maxx?

I was around 12 or so, I never got into the hobby a lot and about 6 years ago I was running it and forgot to put the air filter back in after cleaning it. Need less to say after a few minutes of running it shut off and never...

    Gifted Nitro Rustler

    This winter my good friend gifted me his used 2wd nitro rustler because he didn't want it anymore, he said he beat it up and wasn't great at maintenance.

    No to low maintenance aquarium?

    This is a question for all the aquarium guys we have here - what is a good no or low maintenance aquarium setup? Would I be better to go salt or freshwater? I'd like to keep it under 50 gallons.

    Did some maintenance

    I got my 5sc in October of 2011. After running two tanks I read online that the rear diff could be low from the factory. I then took out the rear diff and topped it off. Fast forward to this offseason, I had put a total of 10 tanks on my 5sc. It was time for the big maintenance that it calls...

    After Run Maintenance

    After I run my nitro rc, must I use after run oil, and lubricate the engine and put shock oil on the shocks. Right now, I am not doing big jumps or bashing. Also do I need to drain the fuel from my fuel tank when i am done driving. Thanks
