So your supposed to wire them against rotation. The right nut/stud should have the wire wrapping around clockwise, you have it wrapping around counter clockwise. I don't think in this application it should be an issue, but something to consider for next time

Can't see them backing off like this ? we will see. I'll keep that in mind

I was just telling you the way a safety wire is supposed to be wound. I don't think it will be an issue in this application.

It's a good day in the windy city! Ran the rig for a like 40-50 mins and ZERO issues ?? was muddy out it's dirty as all fek. But was hauling ass, was super fun ripping tru all the leaves. PS, never stand behind a rig with tire studs felt like bullets hitting me ??

Doing a tear down now so I can make a list of what I need (other then the obvious shite ?) . Makin video of the rear down ?

 

[Z.hb71]

She has been dismantled ?

Damage report:
Chassis ain't doing so hot (useable but old and beat up)
Feked TC upright
Cracked front arm
Bent axle
Bent rear upper arm
Rear arms and shock bottoms have damage from the wheel
Scorpion lower plate may be bent
Have not dug into the front or rear clips yet, but I don't think there's any damage beyond what I listed ?
Some of those things have been damaged for a while .




Let the cleaning commence!

 

[DougStar]

It was cracked slightly when I got it off John, and I feked it even more, the other side is totally warped ?? bash hard or go home I guess ?

 

[Z.hb71]

so question, if i were to switch to HV, i would need a bec for my reciever to be able to handle the increased volts. so , if i installed a bec, would it slow down the servos? im totally ignorant to this kinda stuff so bare with me

 

[KevTrem]

I don't have a BEC for my flysky receivers, truck is running 2S lipo and Baja is running LiFe battery which is 6.6volts.
