Guys I hate to say this. But if you're not crashing your planes you're not becoming a better pilot!! Remember it's not a loss if you learn from your and my mistakes. I now double-check everything after a rough landing . But guys try to fix your crashed planes don't just throw them away and use a good foam safe glue not super glue.

Bought the UDIRC 1603 Pro (Lancia body) thinking I would do a rally build, not the best platform. Broke the front diff and stripped the servo gear on the maiden voyage lol. Locked the stock diffs for now to do some stock testing, though she wont go straight until I swap the servo. What size "can" do you think would wedge in there with the stock mount before having to diy?

    That’s a good way to lose this plane to tip stall. It’s gonna rock back and forth in high alpha, then one side is gonna rock too far and lose all lift flipping you upside down and strait at the ground.I promise I did it the first 3 times I fly my umx p-51.

Etc and they all get a pretty equal use.. that or ones broken and one fixed in a cycle 😅 from what I've learnt is I seem to always have one on the go one on the bench and one I'm looking at going yeah let's see how the other two go first .. I bought mine yesterday I let it drive around and gave everything a chance to wear in on the off chance it needed it and I haven't had any issues of yet fingers crossed !!

    Love the content, I plan on making my own donuts as well. Personally the best place I have found to get foam rubber is to go to a car show like Carlisle and find someone selling foam rubber mats used for working on the ground. You'll have to do some walking around to find a fair price, size, and firmness, but you can get large 4x2ft (or larger) mats that are thick enough to make rear tires in one piece for around $15 or more. I'm hoping with this I can get some old pancars running good again with some fresh foam on the wheels!

    Maybe a bit late on this info but have you tried taking both diffs apart and loosening them a little? About 3/4 to one turn on each of the 4 screws from fully snug. Out of the box the diffs are usually very tight and act like a welded rear end and not a differential. You might reduce the load on the motor quite a bit. I'm running mine with loosened diffs (rear diff a tiny bit tighter - can just barely feel it notchy. Front diff looser with no notchy feeling) packed with thick grease to sort of act like a clutch pack. I removed the JST connectors and soldered the motor directly to the ESC and added a XT30 connector for the battery With a lipo it's an indoor rocket on wood floors and the rubber tires.
