Dude, I love your new back ground or whatever it is you got going there LoL! Is that a green screen? It’s really different. I got to hand it to you for going out and trying some different combinations of stuff on your comp crawler, and experimenting and stuff. I’ve seen these aftermarket over drive set ups work for a bunch of different crawlers, but the ones I saw were crawler build kits. I’m not much of a fabricator so doing stuff like this;(making stuff fit and work is a bit out of my comfort zone. I don’t have proper tools do that stuff. I’ll enjoy watching you do it from the sidelines though and will be cheering you on dude! Really appreciate the shout out too brother, you really didn’t have to. So thank you my friend! Yes it a new plane a very easy to set up. I think you’ll like it. For such little planes these war birds fly with authority! Hope you have fun. Hope you find something that fits well for your RGT. That thing is awesome!

As far as your link in the way of motor, I don’t think you need such a bend in the front bottom. I actually use straight links for front so they match up with the level of the bottom of the skid. So when you are trying to break over a rock, it’s a smooth slide from front link to skid. And your rig will slide right over that rock. Try it…..might work for ya

Yes sir, you know the links are always the biggest issue for me to figure out. So many guys run them very bent. So I try and follow but it's just never a smooth transition! Lol Thanks for the input

I had to do a quick Google search after clicking the link on the transmission.... It's not a design flaw if you're trying to use the transmission for a front axle it wasn't designed for. It says in the listing it's designed for scx10 II builds. All the aftermarket scx10 II axles I can find have a center pumpkin, not offset like yours has. Also, I have the fusion pro in my scx10 III. It's got plenty of speed on the stock trans and 11 tooth pinion with amazing low speed control. When I heard you say you aren't getting enough wheel speed out of anything lower than a 21 tooth on 28% front OD my brain cried in unhappy motor noises. Good luck man, hope you find a build for that transmission.

Well thanks for the info man, you knownit goes plenty fast enough but but not enough giddy up lol. I was doing team comps and the other guys were blowing me off the course ha ha. Also I did mention it was meant for a scx10ll and a speed body, and your right Def not a setup for an axle setup like I've got. Thanks for the info man, Def needed🙏😉

I've got the same chassis same transmission same axles but I have a 3642 out runner motor . I had to shim up the transmission a couple mm because the motor was hitting the link screw I had the trans slid over as far as it would go , I just ordered a 60 t spur and 10 t pinion because my rig is to fast the motor is 2250 kv I have scx10 high clearance links and have no issues with the driveshafts hitting , offset axles front & back , I used a battery tray from rock pirates rc it sits between the rails lower had to do some custom stuff with this build but it turned out great now I need to test& tune idk if any of this helps you but there it is

I'm pretty sure that new transmission can be rebuit so that the motor can sit on the left or right. That would fix your drive shaft issue. Straight links might give you more clearance at the end of the motor. Looks like you might have a 550 can, a 540 would give more room

I bought an AMK awhile back and worked good until last weekend then it spun the front drive shaft from the gear. They are pressed on and have heard of it being a issue but locktite 660 is designed for fixing it. It is installed on a Element Ecto which has a bunch of room for it and the included skidplate made it easy.

@@arkansasrcnewbie For the locktite to work it has to be taken apart which i did with a punch and a vise with the gear on top and shaft loose then mating surfaces roughed up a bit then cleaned. I used rubbing alcohol. Install locktite on shaft and gear then use old bearing to set spacing. might need to tap it back on. clean up and wait 24hrs and your good.

I have been looking into getting this transmission too. Seems most that use these have small outrunners so there wouldn't be any issues with motor length no matter what axles you used. I'm glad I watched your video though, all this time I thought the motor mount side went the opposite direction 😅 motor on the rear axle side.
