      My friends call me the stumpy of my group because almost all the cars I’ve owned I’ve broken. And my rustler is held together by ecx rear hubs with half the Traxxas link and ecx to extend it. Plus the fronts held together with cable ties

    Thats a testament to just how durable the old rusty is. Those Traxxas models like the rusty/stampede/bandit got millions of people hooked! I probably have over 20 Traxxas rcs, and I still enjoy beating them, they just keep going!

    Hey Kev, few tips on upgrades for that Rustler. First, the RPM camber links are extremely flexible, almost too flexible. You might want to start with stock Traxxas camber links and see how those work first. Also you might want to get the STRC hinge pin set for the Rustler. The STRC hinge pins are pretty much impossible to bend, and they are captured by a nut so you don't have to worry about screw pins backing out or eclips getting lost. Well worth the extra $20 imo.

    2wd slash is alot more forgiving in the handling department. If you wanna get your 2wd skills up grab a cheap 2wd slash. The longer wheel base really helps keep traction on the front end

  • @disinterestedperson
    @disinterestedperson Před 4 lety +13

    Here's a idea try upgrading to a point where it's still fast but not to a point where it is undrivable. It's way nicer when you can go full throttle and the r/c doesn't turn into a bowlingball.

  • @NathanStorer-RC
    @NathanStorer-RC Před 4 lety +1

    I only run my Rustler on 2s. As you pointed out, it becomes unstable above 2s. I don’t think your issue is lack of skill, it’s that too much power is being run through a vehicle that is super light weight and wants to do nothing but wheelies. Sure, 2s might be slower, but I feel it is more fun that way. Save the high power LiPo batteries for the 4WD vehicles.

    • @cartere9981
      @cartere9981 Před 2 lety +1

      Yeah 3s is bonkers on the 2wd rustlers lots of fun though if you put weights over the front so it doesn't wanna just flip over anytime you go above 1/3 throttle

    Mate and I have old vxl rustler's and they've copped a absolute hiding. We upgraded parts as they broke. Also best thing was putting a set of proline badlands off next size up rc and they've solved heaps of problems aswell as taking away the harsh noise they make when landing or crashing, aswell as crazy top speeds on anything. They almost just look like wheels. Shells had to be trimmed for wheel clearance and reinforced on inside with layer of foam and heaps of tape aswell as holding bodies on with tape layers around roof and bottom. When tumbling/crashing they sound like a rubber ball bouncing. Avagud1

    I have a 2wd bandit converted to rustler brushed and the thing seriously breaks something like every time I run it. The spur gear strips out constantly so upgraded to a metal from plastic which was better but eventually broke some teeth also.
    Then I have a brushless slash 2wd that’s way faster wreck it way more and harder and after upgrading to metal drive shafts just runs like crazy.
