      Sorry to hear that, if it did not work with a new board it sounds like your radio may have went bad? best thing is to get a cheap hobby grade radio and use 2 of those cheap 1060 clone esc's I linked in my videos the tanks run and control and drive so much better than stock with these upgrades. 👍

    I found a fix for the lean back on tack off. remove rear track roller, access the spring in shock keep spring in keeper, place fuel line tubing over the spring and reassemble, no more back flips. Also cut out battery box and remove interior will give more room for bigger battery.

    • @ShenRC
      @ShenRC  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi I would not recommend doing that because it will make all the stress go on the rear roadwheel and suspension assembly because it will no longer have a suspension to absorb impacts and could cause the parts to break and fail a lot more easy than with a stock working suspension. Thanks for watching.

    Have you thought of upgrading the tracks to the metal ones should help with the weight to keep the front end from rearing up as much

    • @ShenRC
      @ShenRC  3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Hi the metal tracks are no good they eat up the road wheel sprockets, I never run metal tracks on any of my tracked RC's they are the worst thing you can use as they put big loads of stress on all the parts and gearbox and electronics and cause more harm than good.
      I kind of like how it lifts up but you can put some weight up front in the chassis to keep it down a bit. 👍Thanks for watching.

      @MarcoL972 ปีที่แล้ว

      What a great idea! Cooling the esc is very important, but this tank really needs a motor fan! The esc and motor getting warm is normal but The main drive motor on this thing gets extremely hot! So hot It actually started to melt some of the plastics around the motor mount. I’m really surprised the motor still works. I use a 2s lipo.
      Also something I did, get some regular automotive wheel stick weights. They work great for some extra weight in the front. Just stick them in that empty void behind the front bumper

    whoops... I'd tapped the fan into the body LED plug, the fan doesn't pull much current (0.08A?) and its already tied into the power switch. power to the LED's is probably 3.5 or 4 volts would get the fan active enough. the battery forward will definitely help it climb steeper.

    • @ShenRC
      @ShenRC  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yea I thought of that but I don't trust the power of the board especially if the fan gets stuck like they do sometimes it may cause something on the board to burn out I was thinking. Why I just said the heck with it and hard wired it directly off the battery leads. Yea it helps with the front with the pack more forward.. I know guy's add a lot of weight up front but that makes it much harder for the motors to make the tank pivot and turn more stressful to the gearbox and electronics.... I kind of like the wheelie lift LOL!!! Thanks for watching and the tips as always man😎👍
