    On the topic of servo mount binding on front upper links, Treal make brass links that have a bow in them where they would bind on the mount. I’m running an Injora chassis (K10), Injora servo mount that came with the 11kg servo, and those Treal links. Even on 59mm shocks, the axles drop really well with no binding, and this is the case for every shock position. On some of the lower shock mounts, the only thing to bind is the UJ maxing out!

    Also in the front links if you really wanted to just don’t run any ball in it just a screw through the hole in the link and that’s it. Gives you a lot more flex

    interesting about the battery balance chargers. I've been trying to find data showing longevity and safety between using the usb charger that also uses the balance leads vs an actual charger that does a few other options like storage and discharge. I cannot find that data but I hear ppl say it all the time. Yet, most fires in my area reported have been batteries on an aftermarket charger or just an accident with the battery.

    Great video! Not sure if you ran into this problem but I put some 59mm shocks on my high trail and with the increase in height, am getting binding on the front end while driving straight. I put softer springs to get the ride height down but no luck. Right now, I designed and 3D printed some 6mm spacers to put in the shock to make them function as 53mm shocks but am still having the issue. How would I get the 59mm of travel but keep the truck low?

    So I sold my TRX4m last year sometime because I was tired of not running it with other people. Fast forward to now, I’m on vacation in BC Canada and on a hike when I realized it would totally awesome and easy to carry a mini crawler with me whenever I travel. With that said, would you buy an RTR mini crawler and mod it out or would you rather piece together a mini crawler fully from aftermarket pieces? I’m not sure what I want to do this time. I loved my truck and how it was setup (minus not really having any good foams/inserts out at the time) and am thinking of doing something similar again. Had a bronco 4m with the injora LCG chassis and brass links. HH motor and all the Traxxas brass available at the time. Injora tires and Traxxas beadlocks. It performed exactly how I wanted it to other than lacking in sidehilling because of no support in the tires with all the added weight. I know it’s a long question but you’re definitely my go to guy when it comes to the mini trucks!

    • @CapeCrawlers
      @CapeCrawlers  4 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Me personally I would buy an RTR and build it out over time. I just did a ground up parts build and it was fun, but I like the incremental process of transforming an RTR
