Hey guys hows it going?
so after about six years in the hobby i finally got around to picking up a 5T.
Got an awesome deal on the truck, already have my oil/gas ready at 25:1 and my lipo for the electronics. other than a brief stint with a brushless savage
converted to 5th scale, this is my first real step into the 5th scale world. so naturally I've got some questions. first, The truck came installed with an integy
aluminum steering bell crank. everything looks solid/installed correctly but the end of one of the steering arms is contacting the back of the lower A arm. i
googled this and turned up nothing. here is a shot of it below....
so faulty/wrong part? not installed correctly? i know integy stuff is hit or miss but i've heard nothing but good things about there 5th scale stuff.
next up, kill switch. 30lb truck doing 40mph these are pretty much a nesscessity from what i've read, my question is i'm using a a flysky GT3b 3-channel tx/rx
combo. so if i have a throttle/steering channel and a channel for the kill switch is there anyway i can run my lights an control them remotely? i know they have
splitters but wouldn't that pretty much run the lights the whole time until i hit the channel for the killswitch? how do you guys get around this?
and last i've got the instruction manual but is there a quicker way to access the steering bell crank without taking the whole front end apart? Thanks in advance for everyones help!
