I’m going to be running 2wd open buggy and 4wd short course. Maybe I’ll see some of you there?
I made a bunch of changes to my buggy, hopefully it behaves a little better than the last time. Ditched the long wheelbase DR/SC10 chassis and used an RB10 chassis. Loosened up the diff a bunch to try to keep it straight on power. I feel like those two things will make a huge difference. Now it’ll be up to me to learn how to drive the thing!
Also re-powered my slash ultimate with a Castle SCT setup after finding the rotor in the stock VXL motor was bent and the battery lead on the stock ESC split the insulation wide open. Shouldn’t make much difference in speed but now I have some more control over throttle curve etc. and a 5mm shaft so hopefully this one won’t get bent too. I added some speed holes to the back of the body to combat parachuting and took out the chassis brace to allow for a little more flex too.
Super excited to get back on the track!
