    Warning: Spektrum "fail safe" not so safe

    I'm with you on the kill switch. I have one. It's still no excuse for Spektrum, however. Edit: also kill switches can fail. It's good to have redundant fail safes.

    Warning: Spektrum "fail safe" not so safe

    Bound an SR410 to DX2E. Set the fail safe to full brakes in the event of lost signal. The video below shows me testing it out by turning the radio off and on to simulate loss and regain of signal. The first few times behave as expected. However you can see at the end that as soon as it regains...

    Wide open throttle won't drive straight

    The manual say never go toe in. Is that just because the steering performance will be poor or will it damage the truck?

    Wide open throttle won't drive straight

    The tweak off the line seems to have subsided, but I still get some (torque steer?) right at the peak of engine torque. Not really sure how much is an acceptable amount with a tuned pipe. I might try to get some video with a go pro on the car looking at the suspension.

    Wide open throttle won't drive straight

    So the steering tweak to the left went away after I preloaded the hell out of the front left and rear right shock springs. Instead, it would start straight then pull right at the peak of the power band then continue straight. The weird part is I could not undo the effect, even after backing the...

    Wide open throttle won't drive straight

    A good thought but no AVC. Just a regular 3 channel futaba radio.

    Wide open throttle won't drive straight

    Yeah I have a new Savox steering servo with a 6.6V LiFe battery. It was doing the same thing with the stock servo. I did that upgrade hoping it would improve things. It didn't. But at least I have a nice beefy servo and better battery.

    Wide open throttle won't drive straight

    I got a pair of new diffs for the front and rear from dollar hobbyz. They are filled with the stock oil. I will give those a shot next.

    Wide open throttle won't drive straight

    Servo saver nut is screwed in all the way. My take is that it shouldn't be fighting the steering that much.

    Wide open throttle won't drive straight

    My DBXL with stock motor and Bartolone tuned pipe pulls to the left off the line. It straightens out, then pulls to the right at the peak of the power band before going straight again at max speed. It will roll straight. I have replaced all four suspension arms replaced every wheel hub and...
