In this video I check out the new 58MM long travel shocks for the Axial SCX24 made by PowerHobby! These things are massive! I compare these to 43mm and 54mm shocks and install them on Axel's monster truck SCX24 Gladiator and my blue Jeep Gladiator. I put both rigs on the bench for an articulation test and on the course for some run tests and crawling footage.

CRazy! I might have got to 70 degrees. A single limiting strap in the center rear would allow max flex but also keep the body down. The axle would only drop half way but each side would still get full flex.

@ChrisHarmon1 Жыл бұрын

Real question is what is max needed in any scenario, but you also have to factor weight distribution since the more of an angle it sits at the more it'll wanna roll before reaching max deflection. Pretty interesting to see this portion of the hobby exploding right now. I believe the resulting development will be rapid initially.

Very insightful comment. When you say this portion of the hobby, are you referring to the mini crawlers in general, or the crazy flex we can get out of them?

I always wondered if you could just run limit straps instead of shocks since your not really using the springiness of them, that said I don't know what I'm talking about, just a though I guess. Loved the video!

@CapeCrawlers Жыл бұрын

Thanks for watching! I've been asked that before. The benefit to the shocks is that they keep the axle straight. With just limiting straps I think it would be too floppy and you would have linkage binding and driveshaft loss due to horizontal movement. The shocks are stabilizing limiting straps essentially.
