So this thing has been collecting dust for at least 10 years in my garage, it was given to me so I don't know anything about them besides reading online..
I'd like to keep it as stock as possible because I don't want to throw to much money at it but I will buy better parts to make it more durable..
So first thing I need is axles since two are broken I have been reading about swaping to the E-maxx 3908 or 3905 since the a arms are wider and it's easier to get stronger axles and knuckles..
This must be the first version since it's narrow and has the vx12 speed controller. I read that the vx12 was a recall but 20 years ago would that recall still be valid?... Not even sure what was so bad about them but I'll keep it for now just to see if this thing fires up since controllers aren't cheap..
Since I'm planning on keeping it mostly as is what batteries do you guys recommend for the two titan 550s ? I know battery technology has come a long way in 20 years so what's the recommended battery and charger ..
I may be forgetting something but if anyone has any recommendations maybe links to things I should buy please post it up especially the batteries I have no idea what this thing can handle as is...
All this is new to me so bare with me thanks
