@@hybrid32494 it is exactly why we LOVE nitro. You want to do a run, but, you dont know why, there is always a problem to fix before and make your car great again ! This morning i should look dual brake on my jato, but, i make a run with my DragSlash Nitro, 87 km h (54 mph) ! ONE SPEED baby ! Still slower than my jato. I wish better because i put 24tooth and 70tooth... Respect for all things you do. Really !

Hello Hybrid, during this time I rode with the jato and the double brake system, for 10 minutes it worked really well. And then, return of the problem! the plastic softens and the small connecting rod twists. So, I made the switch with YOUR SYSTEM and I'm testing it tomorrow.

On mine even after doing this I need to set the brakes so when the throttle is in neutral the brakes slightly engage that gives me a better chance of slowing down; I don’t do a free glide when I get off throttle and it is going to wear the brakes faster but on this model I think that’s a good setting to keep under control when you are going 50+, and want to decelerate or prepare to corner, i’ve got to do some more testing in a big parking lot

hey dude, I've recently come up with an even better Jato brake mod, in addition to this one. What you need to do is remove the spring that is on the linkage near the servo. You don't need that spring at all, it just lowers the movement of the brake cam. I replaced mine with 2 nuts (they are non-compressible), works much better. Try that, you will see the engagement is much better.

The cam is lever is still bending. Its cheap plastic, delrin who knows but its got the same flex as the a arms will have. I replaced with aluminum, and the other other lever and it was so much better. Eventually when you add aluminum parts to other areas it increases the weight enough that you have to install the dual disc set up. Even then it flies and they lock up and it keeps flying lol
@hybrid32494
@hybrid32494 2 жыл бұрын
hey bro! Yes, the Cam lever still bends, but it actually applies breaks in this direction. That bending isn't due to hiting the side of the Trans Case, so it's fine. You know what I'm saying. Ofcourse if eliminating all bending is the goal, then yes, you need the aluminum brake set from Hot Racing. But I will tell you the brake setup with the flipped cam is more than good for most purposes. IT locks up the wheels anyway, so nothing to worry about. Nitrogang! Thanks for watching bro...

would you mind trying this? I think the fuel line/spacer that is on the linkage at the servo horn is overstressing the brake assembly and that might be why it is flexing. Try butting back the stock spring on the linkage and tighten down the adjuster screw until it has only one millimeter of play.

Its deff a black eye to the jato but aye alls forgiven the 1st time you lock em up at 50 and they lock like they should have from the box. Thanks again for always makin that killer nitro content. Feel bad for anyone with a jato that dont watch this video or figure that mod out. The jato will stop better then a rustler if you finesse it. Thatd be cool to see a braking comparison on nitros.

You need to remove the spring on the throttle linkage directly near the servo and replace it with something that is NON-COMPRESSIBLE. Like 2 stop collars or something like that. That spring is useless, and makes the linkage work even worse.

That Jato looks fast, but, I don't know if it has what it takes to dethrone the Arrma infraction? As you mentioned, depending on the gearing of those infractions, they can hit 80MPH. I love the smel and sound of nitro but, it cannot compete with the fasterr rev rpm of electrick motors. Only time will tell I guess if II'm proven wrong. If anyone can do it, is you.. Good luck on your next race.

hey my dude! Yes, the 1/7 arrmas are substantially faster with the top speed pinion, it's really a question of how long it can do those speed passes, cause form my understanding it's about 2-3 minutes worth until you have ESC failures or thermal cut-offs. Then again they cost about double the JATO when equipped with the proper LIPOS they need. But I will tell you this, if any of them want to show up with the AVC turned off and running only RWD then the JATO would DESTROY them in a normal race.

Once you do that you will see how the system is mounted, I highly recommend you just reference the exploded parts views from the traxxas site bro. Its easy once you remove the trans.
