Many call their TX a controller or a remote. But technically remote control denotes a wired control box.

I didn't have much luck with rovan servos at 5 cell nimh voltage. Good luck!

I've had a killer bee die fairly quickly. I've also had a dynamite die in less than a year. You pay your money and take your chances. Both failed safely though so not a horrible situation if one does die.

At 181:48:36 my DX4S ran it's final lap. Broke the nub that recenters the steering wheel. DX5 2021 Pro ordered.

170:51:×× tonight, 2hrs 40min this week. Had Mini Z racing Sunday morning and I've been tinkering with my Orlandoo Hunter micro crawler.

I bought the boy one late late sumer 2014, rear center shaft broke 3rd tank as I started getting the engine dialed in, clutch was gone before the end of the 5th tank. Due to many fittment issues as parts wore I bought a 5ive B kit and rebuit the whole truck with Losi TLR parts. That truck still...

I like the concept but wont be a buyer after my first rovan experience.

Looks to be based on a 5ive chassis not the DBXL platform. Maybe if it was $7-800ish for a roller?...

Hahaha

The stock 5ive B setup has steel disks and steel pads with pad material bonded to them. RCR is just a bronze alloy pad and steel disks. I believe the 5ive B setup is closer to MIP/Axis in feel and function at a much lower price.

Which did you go with? I did MIP/MOD on my first truck and 5ive B on my second truck both V1s. Considered doing Axis for the second truck but decided to save some coin and glad I did.

Still think one would be better off replacing with new stock parts than down grade with RCR.

RCR seems a step backwards from 5ive B setup, jmho.

RX antenna damage has been the only range issue I've had with spektrum gear and I have been running spek gear since it came out. Had the module in my JR R1 circa late 04 early 05.

I've used permatex on four mills now no issues on them.

Ive been running VRC big bore silenced for years, but just picked up a VRC 32cc non silenced last week. It came yesterday, and I cant wait to see if I have been sacrificing power for quiet.

Well, just like every servo company there are some budget servos that really suck! I put some hs-85bb servos in a heli once thought they were fine till I upgraded to Futaba S3155 what a difference, so much more precise.

I've been running a Hitec SGT1000 for 4-5years 12-15gallons of run time and it has been an awesome setup. I did send it in two years ago for MOD bullet proofing, it came back with minimal play in the gear train and has continued to be rock solid. My other truck has an older single 845 that has...

This is nothing new, I've watched it happen time and time again since the late 70's. It always ends badly for the hobbyist, loss of innovation and selection.

Hair spray or hair gel are the answer. It holds the tires in place but does not harm the wheel or tires when the time comes for removal.
