How can I buy the Sway Bar mounts? I’ve had my ascender for a few months and it was the first thing I noticed, terrible torque twist. Not new to RC by any means but this is my first crawler.
It helped out a pretty good bit from what I saw while driving, the front is still loose as usual but it helped a lot on the climbs. If it were any stiffer it would kill all rear articulation. You can also preload it by adjusting the links but I left them even as IMO pre loading for a video wouldn't be fair to everyone who watches.
Your getting rid of some of the torque twist yeah but doesn’t it also reduce the amount of flex you get when crawling? Flex that would make it perform better? I just don’t understand why their are sway bars in the crawler world I understand why race cars have them tho.
Wildman georges rc channel George the truck flexes plenty enough to go anywhere it’s needed to. The swaybar keeps the twist under control which is way worse on climbs than the loss of articulation.
Yeah it defiantly looks like it crawls better without the sway bar. The tourq twist is just a visual annoyance by adding a sway bar you crippled the truck a little bit
Wildman georges rc channel George it didn’t hurt performance at all IMO. It’s more stabile and on steep climbs I’ve had this truck twist so bad on climbs it was impossible to complete. With the swaybar it stays flat and gets over it.
wrong, all that will do is maybe maybe reduce it on startup but motor mass starting in the other direction, but the same torque is on the driveshaft as before so no that does not fix torque twist.
I have and it doesn't help, I've mirrored transmissions, reversed them and all but in the end the torque on the driveshaft stays the same and it was a waste of time.
Dang it your smashing it to bits . take it easy .
THANK YOU... This is what I've been looking for...!
Nice ! Great find. Well done as always. Rock On Bro!
Awesome video excellent job definitely made a difference
Nice product, very informative video as always !
it works for sure

Very nice test video 😁👍👍👍
Can you show how you fit the swaybar kit
What a great video my friend~~!!👍👍👍
Great video but I see very slight difference with and without. It only made a slight difference when slow crawling

I think ioc (inversion of control) is the best weapon against torque twist.
Very cool works n fits great
yeah and with those printed mounts its a total bolt on for this truck.
On real trophy trucks do they run sway bars on the front and rear or only the rear? I’m always telling people.
Will this work with a 1/10 scale trophy truck?
I’m sure it would
Good stuff brother

The torque flex is the main reason don’t drive mine. I thought the sway bar would help with that.
yeah these things should come with a swaybar from the factory they are so bad
Pretty interesting
Does anyone know if the 3d printed piece will fit the SCX10.2?
Its not a bolt on but I'm sure it can be made to fit
I am trying to make similar arm setup but with mechanism for remote connect / disconnect of sway bar. Will be fun :)

just flip the transmission around like you would do on a scx-10 to stop torque twist

@@ExocagedRC just try it on a scx10 and see for yourself

Don't do much tbh
