Loving your work bro. I'm currently building a 3.0 running Sidewinder 3 and 6500kv motor. 45t spur 41t pinion yes I said that right. I'm flying right now running 2s.
Nice setup bro I’m thinking of picking up one of these cars from traxxas
Excellent! Great info, very helpful
Verry cool build .
Nice runs, This is what i use for my hex and some loc tite because it does make the threads shorter but if you use the loc tite it will hold the wheel nut on. Traxxas Ford GT 4-Tec 2.0 (83056-4) Upgrade Parts Aluminum Hex Adapters 9mm Thick - 4Pc Set
Not trying to be mr knowitall lol but making sure your tires are balanced is a big part of stability. I also recommend a more aerodynamic body and making sure the front of car is lower than the rear. Front of mine is 1/4in off the ground, rear is about an 1/8 higher. And I make sure all my tires are balanced before making a speed run. You can also buy/make suspension lockers for the front to keep it from rising up when you get on the throttle. Makes a huge difference
If u buy the 45mm foam wheels and on a foam tire truer you cut off about 7mm of the inside of the wheel you will get your wider stance without even needing the hex extensions. Exacta knife with #11 blade works just take ur time and cut for only 3 seconds at a time so you don t catch fire. Also makes sure the wheel spins the proper way so the the blade is trailing the wheel as it turns. Also put the grey traxxas hex adapter on off the front of a rustler 2nd or the stampede 2nd since it’s wider, but the nut still has room on the stock axel.
I just drilled out the hex,s to fit 15mm widners no issues
Awesome run....
Nice pass bro 👍🏾.
Thank you!
Nice Passes & Good Info
Got to get the Corvette to lose weight, in the middle, always get an RC scale to weigh balance and options to figure it out, that was almost a good run. (Grade B-)🏗️🤔☕👍
Great Job, but that car has a lot of plastic parts that can’t hold up to those high speed crashes, but I feel you, cause I’m chasing that 100mph with my 4tec
Check out the rest of the series. We make a couple changes.
hey man if your still looking for the extended hex type thing it might be worth a shot picking up some traxxas 2wd front hexxes they fit the shaft and are longer than stalk might be worth a shot
I never had good runs with the rc6gs transmitter. Could not for the life of me put down 1 solid pass. I switched to the stock traxxas tsm and instantly ran amazing and picked up 18mph
Different experiences for different folks for sure.
Oh m my
Wow the carnage was real!! What an awesome little machine though
Instead of braiding thise wires you should just cut to fit and solder. Not only is shorter wire better but you'll save a few grams by cutting that copper off.
Yeah this was in my early years of RC and I didn’t have the experience to solder. I definitely shouldn’t have braided these lol
Wow man nice . But wondering y there ain’t a wheelie bar on your 4-tec. I have one on mine . And a aluminum chassis. I don’t fly or flip off the road . Also your mod 1 right . We have the same esc. Except I have a posideon motor. Have you tried using the castle link with your computer.?
Yeah I use the castle link with my pc to set everything up. The wheelie bar I didn’t think about.
The hardest speed run is 10th scale,(except wltoys), whoever can make it straight is legend, it always went to the right, sometime it spun out.. BTW good built bro👍👍👍👏 and check out my cheap built 6s 10th scale redcat.. 👍 I've got 80mph PB but end up crash😅
Go to a large football field for speed runs
1515 might be a little too heavy 😅 I think a 1415 with either mmx or mmx 8s on a good 4s battery combination should get you alot more speed I think the idea you should try with the 4tec is get it to draw more amps. I'll give you this hint, run a parallel combination
I’ve been going through a couple options and have a few things I want to test - then I may jump to your suggestion
@@GoKaioken give it try later see how it goes always remember lower voltage higher amperage, higher voltage less amps that goes for any car
Please tell me how to fix that drive shaft problem I have the same thing going on for me on the same car
Fährt der ab Werk so schnell ?
This car is not heavy and big enough to do speed runs keep it brushed or brushless 2s and have fun
Do whatever you want to do regardless of opinion. It’s a hobby.
Having some trouble trying to get my 2.0 to go straight even at low speeds, took the Servo saver off turned on the car and 0 out Tsm, the wheels look pretty straight however when I turn it doesn’t look like the servo goes all the way back into the same position, I don’t know what is causing this but it’s frustrating
Maybe try an upgraded servo? I recommend Raz shiffrin perfect pass servo.
@@GoKaioken purchasing the hot racing steering bell crank, there is a small crack where the servo horn goes into the part that steers the wheels, hoping that is what is throwing the car off ever so slightly to the right or left, I’ve tried multiple servo horn locations on the servo with the Tsm 0 out and still can’t get it correct, bought the hot racing metal servo saver as well, maybe the servo is going too that would explain why it doesn’t pull the wheels back to center all the way, however when I take the servo out, it steers both ways perfectly fine, even when I put a little pressure on the servo saver while turning it to imitate being connected to the servo horn and bell crank, super weird
Good luck!
@@GoKaioken thanks man 😎
Nice speed, but would more weight keep it from popping up?
For sure
What setup u have I see mamba x what’s motor
verygood you video bat a need numbers parts for change un my car i from mexico and how you buy this parts
Can I ask what are those green plugs
They are the castle 6 mm or 6.5 mm plugs.
Whats your PB for the 4tec?
Car not meant for speed runs. Get an XO1 for that.
It’s a hobby. You can use any car you want for any purpose. I got this car to 128mph. Seems okay to me.
Make a how to fix lol for us noobs
expensive crash... nice video tho
Just get a yokomo gyro
does someone put foams if you send them the stock rims?? maybe also subscribed
Yeah a company called Gone Bananas
@@GoKaioken that's the one. Heard it from Earl Moorehead nice job on the car. I'm about to do the same project but thinking the maxx power system since I have it on hand
Dis like the whole 4 tec 3.o size of wheels and body size many walking away for this product as a professional rc techican I see other brands flying off our. selves. faster
Which ones do you see sell the most?
