I do believe traxxas makes a hardened version of the outdrives.


Get me back into RC!

Yea you will have no luck except going to cvd,s and that most likly wont be stronger, cartwheels tend to bend things quickly.

the flm cvd has a extra thick spot in the exact spot that you are bending them.

also in my experience if you run some tires with big side walls like the ones liked below you will never bend any axle because the tire just compresses

you could also try mashers 2k or moabs (i run 30 series moabs and the ones liked above)

They say a good mechanic only needs 2 tools - WD40 & Duct tape. If it moves, and its not supposed to, duct tape. If it doesn't move, and its supposed to, WD40.
