Ok, my first video in about half a year...

Vendetta Basement Bash

I had to drive slow because I broke a front drive shaft a few jumps before the video.

Enjoy.

ZLB --Thats only if people watch the credits...

Mike --Thanks, and it is still wet outside, so I'm not sure when I'll do it.

But, I just rebuilt my whole 'detta in under an hour, including rebuilding all the shocks, checking the diffs, and all the good stuff. Turns out, I could have had some major problems!!!

Every time I jumped the 'detta would bottom out, and well yesterday, the steering servo disconnected itself from the chassis, so I had no steering. Then, the car started to make some funny noises. Well, the motor mount had loosened, and I almost had a stripped spur gear...
But, I put some shock travel limiters on there, so now it doesn't hit the ground!!

Oh yeah, I might be getting BL for the slash!!!

Good find on the rebuild, and in just the nick of time as well.

Subject: Re: Vendetta Basement Bash Tue Feb 10, 2009 4:49 pm

Yeah, it was lucky. But I noticed it because it was making funny noises..

Also, I might be putting BL into my vendetta!!!

Subject: Re: Vendetta Basement Bash Tue Feb 10, 2009 6:47 pm

NICE!!!! Should be a great hop up. Whats in it now?

Subject: Re: Vendetta Basement Bash Tue Feb 10, 2009 6:48 pm

Its still completely stock, believe it or not...

But, I'm not buying any 1/18 scale BL System, no, I'm buying a 1/10th scale BL system. Which means I'll have to work hard to make it fit in the car..

Subject: Re: Vendetta Basement Bash Tue Feb 10, 2009 6:53 pm

whats wrong with the systewm that is in there? And what exactly is in there, like sizes and makes and such?

Subject: Re: Vendetta Basement Bash Tue Feb 10, 2009 7:03 pm

I my 1/18th scale Duratrax Vendetta, I have:
Duratrax VR3 Ultra RPM Motor (360 can size, I believe)
Duratrax ESC 500 (roughly 1" by 1")
A Duratrax Receiver (roughly 2" by 1")
A Traxxas 5 cell Receiver battery (normal 5 cell receiver battery)
And a standard steering servo.

There is nothing wrong with this system, I just want a bit more speed!!

Hope that answers your questions..

Subject: Re: Vendetta Basement Bash Tue Feb 10, 2009 7:16 pm

it does. You throwing that system up here in the for sale or trade thread?

Subject: Re: Vendetta Basement Bash Tue Feb 10, 2009 7:18 pm

No, I'm going to keep the stock stuff just incase either:
A. This BL system is too powerful and I just can't use it...
B. I need the BL system in a different vehicle...
