Have you replaced the differential covers with aluminum ones? I've seen some opinions that the bearings are falling apart and damaging the differential cover, but I noticed that only people with the electric version have this problem. I ordered my model, I can't wait for it to arrive.

Why did you decide to swap it to electric? Were you having problems with the gas motor or just personal preference? The reason I ask is I was thinking about buying this truck from redcat but got kinda scared away by the reviews. I noticed that based on your videos, you've had this truck for about 2 years. What's your experience with it?
@GussCustomCreations2 ай бұрын
The truck worked perfectly fine for 2 years and about 4 gallons of gas. The only thing I don't like about it is its break system is not the best as most 1/5th scale have 2 brakes this only has one. And the other was the throttle linkage, its flimsy and will warp and cause the engine to rev slightly when you hit the breaks. The other issues were pretty typical for a gas rig mainly screws vibrating out, but I have yet to break a single part. The reason for converting it to electric is I like it so much I wanted one of each and I like to build stuff lol. I'm in the process of grabbing another one and will be putting a bigger engine in it with the buggy gear ratio.

So what does the title of your video "VELOCITY STACK AIR FILTER MOD RIP" have anything to do with your running around with the thing ?🤷♂️...I mean for all "we" know, you never installed anything, and you're just doing donuts, smacking into poles, and lifting up a bunch of dust with the OEM intake..also, if you did in fact install a velocity stack and a new style air filter, why didn't you show the install and how it looks after the install, maybe give the item's info so viewers can maybe purchase the item? 🤷♂️..but nope, you just burn gas and give no info whatsoever 🙄😒...I don't do videos on KZfaq, but if I did, I'd stick to the topic and show the item(s), how they fit and look on the motor and then, run it...but of course, that's just me...🤣🤣

RIP is known to most hobbyists as a term for testing, or taking it for a drive. If you looked at the thumbnail it clearly says TEST. Its pretty obvious you are ignorant to a lot of things RC and Internet based so I would keep your comments to yourself. You didn't even look in the link in the description where I have the parts listed. I do this for fun, and apparently you take things way to seriously and need to go get some help. I'll pray for you.

It's not too rich the carb on these sucks and don't hold tune. The revving is the crappy throttle linkage that bends when you hit the brakes and lightly applies throttle. I'm guessing you watched the first 3 minutes before I tuned it and didn't actually watch the video so you didn't see
