In this video I test the off road and crawling capabilities of my 1/10 scale Traxxas Summit for the First time since swapping in a sensorless brushless Power System

Love Summit, they are such an under rated RC. I've got surpass hobby 4068 2050kv and Hobbywing max 10 with 17/68 gearing. It's not as smooth as the brushed setup when crawling, but it's still able to crawl nicely. The cogging is there but on low gear it manage to keep it to a minimum. Thanks for great content, much appreciated 👍👊

Nice! Yeah if it has the same setup as this it might struggle a bit in tough crawling situations since it’s sensorless and since there is no drag brake….also just be careful running brushless power on a Summit….I’ve heard Summits can’t handle 6s so I’ve been running mine mostly on 4s….I still had a diff failure on 4s actually

2:02, I had issues with one of the servos, and went nuts, but realized, that it was the diff metal control on the remote. I unknowingly kept tapping it with a carabiner looped on my holder around my neck. Them. Boom it stopped, but this may not be your issue. Thanks for the video again. Happy Friday!

You can set a drag brake for that, but the slop in the transmission is mostly due to the dog shifter gear in the transmission, the stock one is plastic, when you have the truck sitting there, with no power or anything, try to slide it forward and back, and that rolling that it allows to happen in both directions before you feel the gears engage is the amount of slop in that stock transmission. I don't know if they are still available, but there was a company LEM that made a hop up for that gear, in aluminum and that removes a lot of that slop (it engages much more quickly and smoothly).

@@RCKnockout Not all of them, just that Dog Carrier, but honestly, outside of that the transmission is well made, I've never broken anything in there in all the years I've been running this truck (save for one time I twisted the shaft in there that the slipper clutch sits on somehow, and the regular slipper maintenance), inside is a mix of metal and plastic gears, which for me at least, have held up, even to brushless.

Idk I definitely wouldn’t call this a crawler or use it for crawling, I mean yes you can crawl with it I’ve seen people trying to crawl with it. The it’s so big & ties are so huge nothings gonna stop it lol. Definitely a cool basher to take out & smash around. I’ll stick to my gspeed LCG’s & trx4’s for crawling!! Cool to see it out and about though.😂😂👍🏼

I disagree, I think it is a crawler/basher….it does have independent suspension so it’s not a scale looking rig or anything like that…but a lot of features that they put in the Summit..they also put in the Trx4….the locking/unlocking diffs and the 2 speed transmission…it definitely was created to crawl

I love mine, need to do some upgrades to it because I’m looking for more power/durability, hence why I’m here. I was skeptical of the crawling aspects but after running this thing for years I’ve found it really opens up where you can “crawl”, you see a log or pile of rocks you would never have noticed/taken the time to consider with a true crawler. If you have places to run it the larger size and 6”+ of articulation really helps.

Ok so for servos let me share something I've learned over the last few months. So you can obviously upgrade to a HV servo with high torque but then most people end up running those off a BEC that's internal on their ESC or they run an external BEC. Both of those are decent solutions and work. But if you want the best performance you need to have an external battery power the servo directly and not a BEC / ESC. It's a pretty dramatic difference and I learned this through the company promodeler who make amazing servos of all types and sizes and sell the external battery you would want to power it with. Then you just plug the signal.wire into your reciever and then basically have a Y connection that then allows you to use an external battery to power the servo. So the servo is now no longer powered via the reciever and only uses that for signals and the servo gets all it's power from a bettery you would mount on your rc somewhere. I did this to my Xmaxx and the results are insanely good. Then all I have to to is charge my servo battery every so often. It has a balancing cable and charges via XT30. I only have to charge the servo battery once every few months after many runs...probably 50 runs.
