Im really happy with machete, this thing is DURABLE!!!
Only one problem are the shocks, when you even do a mini jump it always slams the chassis to the ground hard, i put some thicker oil in it but still no good results.
It needs a bigger shocks

Might I ask, what's the advantage to essentially a 3 piece A Arm? Seems like a robust solid piece would hold up better. Side note, I'd love to see some solid 4S / 6S style ROLLERS...

My machete new 4s 15 min into first run stopped working. The motor still revs and the front wheels still turn but doesn’t move whatsoever. Can anyone tell what I need to do to fix it?

[@jameswaldby4992]

Please make a 6s shredder! Or a 6s kit for it. 👍👍

[@kylegeldmaker]

this is the 6s shredder. they state on the product page that they attempted to engineer a 6s shredder platform and chose to build a new platform instead. I would assume the shredder product is sunsetting.

[@jordandllrd]

@@kylegeldmaker That sucks.

Is it better to use two 2S batteries or one 4S battery? Trying to factor in my upfront cost to buying this vehicle, since it seems a little more costly to buy one 4S battery. This will be my first large scale vehicle requiring a 4S battery. I already own one 2S and 3S battery. thx!

Please redesign the motor location...cant upgrade to a 1650kv with more torque because the speed control is in the way for a longer motor
