Stuff the wire of the antenna in the black box it comes out of and shorten the blue antenna cover. Thats what iv done and I have no antenna sticking out of the body where it can also break and get damaged. Range is still the same and it looks way sleeker

Thanks for bringing up the differentials. I was wondering whether they were open gifts or lockers. It appears they're open differentials. And that's okay not a deal-breaker. Because I'm thinking of buying one. I really like the truck

I love my 1/16 scale summit it’s super fun to drive and easy to work on. The best upgrade you could do is the steel driveshaft and upgrade the servo.

I’m looking to get my son his first Rc. I was looking at this and the Teton, as well as he 4wd stampede and arrma granite. It would be for off-road park use. What do you recommend?

@jakesrcaddiction7519 2 жыл бұрын

I’d suggest going with this over a 4wd stampede or a Teton. If you wanna go bigger and you want it to last. I’d go with a Traxxas Maxx the newer version take a look at my channel.

I wanted a Summit, but the store only had the Revo. Only thing I hate about the suspension is it bottoms out on everything.

Try the purple springs Traxxas offers for it along with 40w oil. It helps a lot

Would.you recommend the e revo 1/16th over this?

I think the Summit drives better than the mini E Revo.

The 12 turn motor only last no longer then 15 minutes and the lights dim when you give it throttle with the 12 turn motor and I put a 27 turn motor in and I got close to three times the runtime and the lights don't dim but its slower but more torque and way lesser heat but now I'm changing it to brushless with a smaller pinion gear

@jesse2916 2 жыл бұрын

I've owned the revo, slash, and summit in this 1/16 platform. The summit will only blow diffs especially when brushless. The suspension and wheels are way too large for this chassis. The diff housings can't handle the stress and they blow the gears constantly. Also, yes, definitely get dual savox 0250mg servos.

@livegood9876 11 ай бұрын

@jesse2916 Did you blow diffs with a center diff installed on this rig? Were the diffs shimmed also?

You CAN cut the antenna tube and pull the excess receiver wire and tuck it into the receiver box, this making the wire fit UNDER the body, not really a complaint point dummy!

I'm aware. I am just reviewing the truck as Traxxas presents it and instructs you to do in their instructions.
