Time to eat some Yeti's! Lunch anyone?

I would like to see a Axial Yeti take a hit like this.

limited slip build

This picture shows what to do and also shows what spring to use and what not to use.


The lower heavy spring is the one needed.
Guys I bought these springs years ago at Home Depot is a verity pack of springs. Finding the right spring rate is key. Also The aluminum Diff housing is key as it will no warp over time from the pressure that is on the gears that put the pressure on the housing. I'm not saying it will not work I just don't know because I haven't tried it. I'm going to though. Also when you cut the spring I use a dremel cut wheel. Feather the cut edge so that it is not going to bind against the gear. You get this right and you will not need lockerss hardly ever. Good luck!



Yes... your seeing this right. That is JB Weld black not the gray. This works well and it takes the shock out of the gears well.

Hay twisted you might want to put on the top of your builds like this on that your cars are not like what comes from factory but the factory in your mind

She only shows interest in them if they move. She really like this one because the rubber is soft. She doesn't like anything that can out run her!

This is on my other build that uses a Yeti XL body. So the wheelbase is only 18.5''. But this shows how I'm setting up the 2 speed trans for both Desert Buggies.

Twissted,

have you tried yet the xcr 1000?

 

[nic329]

Twissted...what wing is that on your DBXL?

 

[twissted]

I use the Redcat XBE wing and 1/8 front A-arms for the mount.

 

[MikeRC]

Twisted, did you buy the xcr1000?

 

[twissted]

Twisted, did you buy the xcr1000?

No I wasn't able to. They took my information and then I never heard from them again. I did send a picture of this build the last time I talked to them. I wonder if it pissed them off?

The front lite buckets that are from the Losi 5ive is now a functioning set of 10mm lites with flashlight lens to get the look I wanted. I will be using resistors to keep the voltage as it should using a 2 cell liopo battery.
