Looking for information? How about bashing? Cool builds? Well you'll find all that and more right here on Mike's dungeon. I do the best I can to relay easy to understand information about the RC hobby, everything from parts to tips and tricks to just good ol fashioned bashing. Maybe even a bit of racing sometimes.
Traxxas summit gets some hobbypark wheels and tires.
Putting some new shoes on the summit and decided to go with hobbypark wheels and tires from Amazon, they have good reviews and were in the right price range so we'll see how they hold up.
link to the product here:www.amazon.com/Monster-Inserts-Redcat-Traxxas-Exceed/dp/B07MJJZTL5?ref_=ast_sto_dp
I'm in no way affiliated with hobbypark or Amazon, the tires felt pretty good during unboxing but there's no way for me to know long term reliability of these wheels and tires.

in this video I'll walk you through changing the suspension on the Traxxas Revo platform, springs from hot racing, progressive 3 rockers and pushrods. this should greatly affect handling and offer a stiffer suspension setup overall,
brushless Traxxas Summit first bash
zhlédnutí 346Před 21 dnem
this is the first run of the brushless swapped Traxxas summit, overall I'd say it did pretty well. there's more to do before it's finished, might go up a tooth or two on the pinion, wheels and tires ect,

So are the spacers not needed on the front arms? I've just bought the same arms for mine and have got the spacer's either
I took my spacers out, I was having problems with one of the dog bones popping out and that was the recommended fix, I haven't had them on this truck in a long time. You are talking about the little aluminum spacers on the end of the front arms right?
@@mikesdungeon8398 yea that's correct, I'm pretty sure I have a v4 kraton and in the add that I bought the arms off stated I needed different suspension pins and the spacers, I was just curious if that were true
Mine is the v5 so I can't really confirm that. I do know there are some differences I just don't know what they all are, sorry
@@mikesdungeon8398 can confirm the v4 lower suspension pins ain't long enough so have order some, the exb and v5 must have longer pins from standard l, they are alot beefier tho 👌
Thanks for the great show 😁 i have a fireteam. I already put on RPM arms and titanium chassis along with stainless bottom plates. Metal hubs and diff cases along with titanium hinge pins and upgraded hinge pin blocks. I put on front and rear bumpers which make it such a hassle to tear apart 😉 i just got metal a-arms to try. Think I'm gonna wait until i break 1 of the RPM. Truck is super heavy 🤯 max6 combo. All metal drive train. All upgraded. Tool steel out drives. Scoarched roto lock motor mount. I just had a belted trencher tire explode on me 🤯 just cruising around the yard. No jumps or high speed or anything. 🤯 I put on the street fighters that i have. When it breaks, it's gonna be big 🤯😉😁🤣
Hi , have a dead rovan 29 cc engine could i change everything for Zenoah parts exept for the crankcase. Any help would be appreciated, many thanks and great video.
Awesome man 😅
That baby SCOOTS!
Hey, Mikey? How ya doin’? I’ve missed ya!
I've been good how about you
@@mikesdungeon8398 Okay now. First half of year was hell. Wife had surgery, then a freak accident that put her in hospital and rehab for months, leaving me to take care of the house and her 90-year-old mother. Got thru that, then a period of crushing depression, but MOSTLY better. Thanks for checking!
@@richardletaw4068 as someone who deals with depression on a daily basis I completely understand, I hope everything goes well from here on out man. good to hear from you.
@@mikesdungeon8398 I did not know that about you. Well, I have over 50 years experience with it, if you ever need someone to talk to. : )
Why did you change from the original arrma arms? Didn't watch. Just wonder why?
So the first original versions of the V2 baja rey king and rhino had a awesome dynamite motor and esc. I have been bashing my first king very hard on a 16t pinion 2+years and only replaced 1 motor bearing with a ceramic. Don't even use a fan😂 . I now own 4 Baja Rey🤑😱 #1 upgrade on all bashers and especially this one are suspension travel limit straps made by HR. Man I wish someone told me when i bought mine😢. Next is a machined aluminum front gearbox and rear 3rd member (diff cover). Spray down your plastics with wd40 helps keep plastics from cracking -it's true😅
Sum 41 nice🤘😆🤘
👍
What size was the Rovan engine you started with
Same thing 30.5cc.
Thanks
ddms shipping fees insane, also they make sure you get fucked in duties by putting duty stamps and making it a big red flag.
It looks like you have a lot of room make a track
I actually already have one, I just have to do some maintenance on it. During my break it got severely overgrown with grass 😅.
Nice, looks like that both of those cars are quite durable 👍
The Traxxas bandit is tougher than I thought it would be.
I didn't got notification of new video, just now saw thumpnail of video when scrolling videos. Yes, there's no point do videos or do any rc stuff if lost interest, but great to see you back doing videos 🙂👍 hope you have time to keep your track maintance and videos of track process 👍
It ripps💪🔥💣🦾💯
That dude looks like fun 👍
You should include link or part# for your page
2mm crank- new ESP TOP IS made for that. DDM has no specs for Zenoah G320RC I doing same
No Video or still photos of assembly '
Works fine with LCG chassis using front and rear guards, no binding.
That was sick bro
I think its binding because you're using the rear gaurd for both front and rear. They have a version for front(6732) and rear(6733) guards.
Only video on CZcams showing how to install the Tekno Big Bone center driveshaft on the Slash 4x4 with a HCG. Thank you!
Jang was the first to build a 1:8 buggy conversion out of a slash and give it the name "backslash"- and he originally also used a hcg chassis as at that time the lcg chassis did not exist yet.
i miss that dude , he had good content
What are the part numbers of the parts you used
Can you post a link for where you got the parts
Knk best hardware and stainless is not softer than steel its way harder maybe you have low quality hardware but if you have ever drilled stainless then drilled steel you would see stainless is much harder
Most screws we use on rcs are hardened steel, which is stronger than stainless
lol "little bit bigger battery!" 😂 that lipo is HUGE!
💪🙏✊️💯
OK cool. I got my rovan Baja 5B last week and I'm and I might do this to my 30.5 that in it sooner or later
The problem I have with my backslash is flipping over on it's back when it wheelis. What's your solution? Small wheelie bar?
I'm hoping that the center diff will help prevent that a little.
I love your excitement :) good work brother
Cool video mate,just about build mine from rovan 29cc up to 30.5cc with stuffer crank,head and crankcase.what kind of sealant did you use in bwtween the crankcase.
A gasket came with the kit I bought.
sounds great i got a rovan buggy and stuck a 6k clutch why folks like 10k still do not get it i guess its the fast launch but it does not move till its going high rpm to me when i try that was annoying in the turns all or nothing lol
@@overbuiltautomotive1299 I would definitely love to do an electric 5th scale build but it's just too expensive lol
@@mikesdungeon8398 yep
it's because of the idiotic "upgrade" mentality and lack of basic understanding what high rpm clutch does. All they see is big number and think it's better 😂 I also actively looked for low rpm clutch spring, like 5 or 6k can't remember it's much better. Probably stock zenoah.spring or some aftermarket. It's white. Once warmed starts moving almost immediately above idle
Nice build man!!!! I'm looking to pick up a Rovan baja tomorrow. It'll be my first 1/5 scale rc.
Does it come with new screws for the shock towers
Honestly I don't remember, I filmed this video a while back and it's just been to long. Sorry.
How well does the Velcro keep the body on?
This or the ARRMA Senton 3s?
That's a tough question to answer lol I don't own an arrma 3s truck but I do see people posting about them on Facebook. The two common things I see on the 3s line is shredded diffs (the ring and pinion gears are plastic) and snapped chassis around the front of the truck. Both of these problems could be a common issue or it may just be people pushing the truck harder than it's designed to be pushed. As I said I don't own a 3s truck from Arma but I do own a Kraton 6s and that thing is a tank lol
@@mikesdungeon8398 Thanks for answering, in that case I will continue my plans to buy the Baja Rey
I felt the excitement for ya mane nice build💯
Thanks for taking the time Mike! 👍
And thank you for watching it's greatly appreciated 😄👍
And by the way that platform is OUTSTANDING!!!
Turn the "AVC OFF", IT KILLS SERVOS!!!
It's almost undrivable with it off 🤣. I have it down low.
As a potential buyer of this Baja I really appreciate you took the time and went to all the details. Thank you.
I'll legit never use a slipper if i can help it, a center diff just adds so much handling and acceleration
Good info 👍
Great information!
Thank you
Love it bro. What springs are you running? 👍🏻✌🏼🤟🏻
They are VG racing springs.
@@mikesdungeon8398 I keep putting off buying those what do you think of them are they worth it?
Unfortunately I haven't ran them yet. Still waiting on electronics 😅. But I do know that everyone I asked recommended them to me when I was asking about stiffer springs for this build.
