- It went in and its a quite a bit larger than a normal SCX style transmission. It won't stay in for long as it just didn't quite workout well in there and I have a better place for it.

Now all you need is different axles and the gen8 will be solid, lol!
🤣
Exo is the Doctor Frankenstein of RC.
Nathan T. LoL I’ve got two more projects I’m working on. Those are even more Frankensteiny
@@ExocagedRC can't wait to see. I've gotten hooked on your videos. I'm pretty new to RC but picked up a TRX 4 Bronco. Made some upgrades like lift kit, brass portal covers, 2.2 tires, (even though the stock tires pull better) and currently putting a power wagon body together. Thanks for the awesome content Exo!
Great set up I really enjoy thw gen 7 videos. Yhank👍
Great video and info
It's a solid transmission.
Though , don't think I'd put it in a comp truck just because it raises the center-of-gravity and driveshaft angle.
Tom Lucas yep
That's pretty cool!
you know what's funny the gen 7 was my first rig. and my first brushless system was a mamba x with a slate 5700kv lol. it took that motor well I gotta say.
Stealth X trans I thing is a better trans then the Axial I know the Element Enduro climes better then my Axial 10-2 UMG10...keep up the great content...
Great Vid! Subscribed friend
KILLER info!! 👍✔👌.. The tires grip nice. Are they the RTR tires?NC MOUNTAINS ❤
Why is the battery mount in the rear?
Another awesome video like how much better the gen 7 turns now. Question I have how much tighter turning is the SCX trans than stock ? Also your course is looking great what I can see , can't wait to meet you and check out the course . Again keep putting out these great informative videos .
Moto Joe thanks, we are still
Hoping for a fall opening. The stock trans either Redcat or Axial turn the same. This Stealth X helps the turn with the over/under of the gearing.
@@ExocagedRC Thank you sir good to know
Cool
Ok so My question would be with the Holm's Hobby trail master 21 turn and a 1080 Hobby wing speedo do you think this transmission would make the Gen 7 a better crawler used for crawling not bashing? Also the Vader skid plate change the handling of the Gen 7 due to the link position changing? Thanks for the interesting cool videos and great ideas!
PhilHenzig I think if it was motored and geared correctly yes I do believe it would help the crawlability of the truck, but not by a whole not. Around $70 total for the trans and belly.
Is their any benefits running the scx transmission compared to the stock gen7 transmission
how about give it some credit it is a great truck and it is a worthy truck if u stopped comparing it to kit trucks and do a ready to run out the box true comparisian to another of the same
You mentioned you have the Gen 8 portals in your Gen 7. Did you do a video on this? I've looked through them and couldn't find anything. I'm interested in seeing the install and how it was done.
yeah wow this is an old one! LOL czcams.com/video/z1PqjslGchs/video.html
At 10:30 you made my point exactly 👍
10:30? It’s the end scene. Maybe you’re talking about me talking about the parts and pieces?
Exocaged RC you are right i missed the time i should have said 10:10 when you said to install it in another rig that is better suited for this ...
RC Fun ok that’s cool
what links are those on that vader skid? if you made them, do you know if they make a set ready to bolt on?
I don’t know at this time. It’s been a while but I may have made these.
Great video as always, great info !! Will fit nicely in my SCX10.2 Raw Builder Kit with no problem? Thank You!!
Zeemax I haven’t tried to fit it in mine yet.
@@ExocagedRC I'm sure you will soon, I'm anxious to see it, so I can get it lol, Donald !!
Did you build that chassis?
I need a custom chassis: at least 270mm wide, 25 inches long, and a wheel base of 370 for a 1:8 scale rig I'm looking to put together
If you build chassis, let me know how much it costs.
BASIL OKOCHA that’s the stock Gen7 chassis, nothing custom there.
In something like the 10.2 i think it would show much better...The overdrive gear for the ar44 axles provide 10% overdrive...Coupled with the Stealth trans can give you 5 different options....plus hot racing has out now underdrive gearing for the rear output of the stealth trans.
With just the front gearing options these are your optional overdrive set ups...not familiar with the hot racing underdrive ratios just yet but it would effectively increase the front percentages.
6% trans o.d./stock axle gear
10% axle o.d./ 1:1 trans
12% trans o.d.-stock axle gear
16% trans o.d./ o.d. axle gear
22% trans o.d./o.d. axle gear
I have a video of it in the 10.2 Superlite with the OD gears in front. I didn’t like it, it was too resistive for normal driving so I took it out.
Exocaged RC ...yea, you had about 22% overdrive....for trailing thats a bit much....most comp only crawlers run as much as 30% to get up those very steep inclines and typically move slow enough that the rear wheels dragging isnt really an issue. ...12 to 15% is better suited to trail rigs.
Michael Hitt I also tried the over and under on the trx. I have yet to see the OD make a difference on climbing. The only difference I’ve seen is in turning. I comp a lot in dirty terrain, even my concrete rocks get dirty. Now with the Capra being able to lock the rear for dig, now that makes a huge difference.
Exocaged RC ...what tires and foams are you using?
Michael Hitt in this video stock tires, stock foams and cheap alloy wheels.
Could I use one as a rear wheel drive transmission?
sure but you'll have to set it up for 1-1 or else one tire will turn faster than then other.
can the stealth x work in the gen 8 chassis?? stock is very loud
You’ll need a different belly to do that. I’ve been trying to get some of the printer companies to make that for a while.
Why put a crawler transmission in a truck that you have setup to bash
Jeremy Burris why not? This showed that it can fit in any Gen7 with a Vader belly.
I have the gen 7 i don't use as crawler, i transform the gen 7 in speed and i lower the CG, for now is stock until a break something and i don't care
Your Gen7 would probably be more worthy if you gave it the same as your other trucks instead of just being a basic truck and a test platform... really aren't showing the G7 to it's best abilities that way
I use my gen7 for scale crawl nothing extreme as you have.
It’s perfect for that
Best 1.9 115-121 mm. Tires?

Put the battery back up front.
