crt.5 rear drive shaft problem

[RUSTED]

yes, i also found it on the steering assembly of a tamiya buggy.but i found a better alternative to make an adapter for 8mm to 5mm its from a part from the emaxx's steering , just cut and drill it

well fixing the driveshaft problem made another problem to occur , the gears inside my center diff were broken to pieces , decided to returned everything back to stock right now (stock chassis tires ....) and use the only small motor i have the mamba max esc and the 7700 kv motor with 2s lipo , for now



my lhs sells a 3500 kv motor i think its the same size as the mamba max motor , will it be ok geared 18/46 with rcm chassis,2s lipo , and 2.2 tires ???

Yes but better to buy a medusa 50 3300kv

I have used 1/8 Spider diff and hobao Torsen in the middle. Both can handle required power. RTR type diffs have often just 2 of those little gears in, so they can't unless they are steel. (no diff lives if no grease/diff oil)

yes i thought of doin that , but decided to power it down , it was very uncontrollable and heavy , gonna move from medusa 2300 70m/mmm/4s 5000mah to medusa 3300 50m/mm/2s 4000mah

Powering down that way makes it is so much lighter, that it goes again ...

Maybe drive time reduces?

My drive today (-5 Celcius): suspension arm had to " give up", not half of 8A lipos udsed.
Person I was driving with lost his MMM v3 with large smoke. No reason found!

x2, its worth it

[RUSTED]

yes, ive broken alot of rear arms , the most thing i hated is when i go to the track and drive for less than 3 minutes and the driveshaft breaks or somethn else , i never drove the crt.5 int he track for 3 laps , first time i went spent 3 hours fixing my drivshaft issue at the track, 2nd time broke a rear arm , third time broke the gears in the center diff and drive shaft , thats when i had it and decided to make it light and less powerful

but im having a hard decision to make a decision of either fix my emaxx (chassis, ofna diff,motor clamp....) , finish turning my titan to a buggy , fix crt.5 (tires and motor) OR fix crt.5 and buggy and get an m11 dsss , i know i should fix my car then get the radio since i already have a nomadio react but i dont know y i want a m11 so0 bad . wat should i do ????

[RUSTED]

well , i was bored and started to play around with some diffs and i was able to fit the inferno diff and cups with the crt.5 spur in the motor mount for the crt.5 but it doesn't fit in the rc monster chassis which means ill have to relocate then servo or make my own chassis, ill try making my own chassis first , wat wheel base should i make it ???
