  • @BetriebAnin
    @BetriebAnin Před 4 měsíci

    Pretty much all rigs with Spektrum systems have very little brakes, some more than others, and this being more. My theory to why is that the diffs just can’t handle full throttle then hard braking. I experienced this on my Lasernut where I turned the brakes to 100%, drove it at near it’s top speed, hard braked, and the diffs made this nasty crunching sound. I’m pretty convinced that’s it.

  • @Saberhawk85
    @Saberhawk85 Před 2 lety +2

    To fix the steering I switched out my Servo, as the stock one is underpowered for this size of vehicle (1/10th on box 1/8th actual) in my opinion. Now it works great. I agree with the breaks being set way to low in factory settings. This should be changed before running.

    • @AlexHT100

  • @loum7008

    Thankx for that video Mr net cruzer--man really helpful to know this stuff...The same thing happened to me with this Lasernut. I had someone selling it really cheap on market place, like 3 times below market value, but they were totally upfront with the issue which was the rear diff was making harsh internal grinding noises... So I took out the the diff and opened the housing...So the 2 bearings that are on the spirwelled pinion wheel the inner bearing was totally stripped.... so I will replace the both bearings ... while I have the diff out I will jump in there and replace the pinions gears and put in some 5000 or 7000 diff oil... and then hopefully the grinding noise will dispense....

    I just got a Losi 1/10 Baja Rey, which uses 2S and 3S batteries. Its at total "insanity" mode w/ the 3S battery, so I just got a couple 2S batteries to get it into some kind of "normal" mode for a more realistic driving experience. Much better w/ the 2S cells. I also dialed the steering input way back, so I wasn't constantly flipping in turns, due to over-steer. 4S seems like major overkill, IMO.
