    I've always wondered a good way to do this is. I've tried this punch thing I have, but it doesn't work the greatest. I'll give this a try. Thanks for the video.

      Thanks for coming by Jason,
      This has worked for me with all my rigs, key is making sure its relatively sharp to go through easy.
      Appreciate the support my man, see ya round

      Yesssss absolutely necessary.

    That is a perfect way to vent your tyres. Been using this method for 3yrs and it’s excellent. I use a 4mm OD short piece of brass tubing sharpened in the exact same way. Great vid brother, love yur work. 😎👌🏼🤙🏼👊🏼💪🏼

      Yeah man I try to keep it simple, never had this method fail on me and it takes two seconds with a sharp pipe.... I have had the welding ones seal back up on thick tires as your not actually removing a circle. It works for some cool 😎👌👍

      Yeah most plumbing stores should have it, it's a sturdy bit so it's a bit harder to sharpen but once you got it, it's sharp for a LONG time plenty of tires.

    Would you bother drilling 4 holes in each tire for maximal ventilation? Thanks!

    • @3SonsRC
      @3SonsRC  2 года назад +2

      You could but I never have, don't feel it's necessary. Haven't spoken to anyone who feels more than two is necessary either. On both ends 180 degrees apart should be good.

    You know the seam is where the molds are joined and not from the tyres put together as 2 halves. Technically, it is not a weak point.

    • @3SonsRC
      @3SonsRC  Год назад +1

      Yeah I get that, just thought it might be better to not put the hole directly on that seam as the ywist8ngbifnthe drill might catch the seam and tear the tire here.... However unlikely that sounds I just avoid it anyways.... Just my preference

  • @mindslyder404
    @mindslyder404 3 года назад +2

    Interesting technique. But why not just use a drill bit?

    • @3SonsRC
      @3SonsRC  3 года назад +4

      Great question brother.
      Two issues with that, one: a pipe drills a round hole and displaces the rubber smoothly with smooth edges of the cut, a drill will potentially rip and have jagged edges...Causing more further damage as the tires balloon or wear.
      Two, if a drill goes into the foam which is really easy to do, it will start ripping that apart as well, and you want the foams to stay as intact as possible 👍
      Sure a drill can put a hole, but not constantly good quality and can Damage, this is a very proven technique.

    Only copper pipe will work or any metal pipe is fine ??

    • @3SonsRC
      @3SonsRC  2 года назад +2

      Any pipe really but it might be harder to find other pipe that small. I had to use a copper pipe fitting joint, not an actual pipe because I couldn't find one that small. Hope that helps brother. Thanks for stopping by and great question.... Hope your enjoying the channel, see ya round brother

    Very neat method, but even after doing this my tires foam will degrade over time Idk, feels like traxxas simply uses cotton for these foam inserts…

    • @3SonsRC
      @3SonsRC  2 года назад +1

      Yessss brother this only helps does not stop foams destruction 😒.... And traxxas is known for weak foams. This more helps keep the wrong stuff out of your tires.

    Could I do this on belted tires ?

    • @3SonsRC
      @3SonsRC  2 года назад +1

      Yes,
      Double check with the manufacturer, but with belted ones I drill the pipe down to stop before breaking through belt portion.... Just the rubber.
      Hope that helps.

    do I still do this if I’m running belted tires?

    • @3SonsRC
      @3SonsRC  Год назад +1

      Not sure brother, some do some don't, I would reach out to the manufacturer and ask.
      I drilled out mine on a rescent video I did, also talked about it, video posted yesterday... But I covered the inner holes rim holes as well and the air does not get out as well and maybe the truck does not perform as well. I tried to just punch through the rubber and NOT the fabric and I think I was mostly successful.... I would be VERY cautious of doing this to belted tires if at all, maybe just not vent and be sure to keep them completely away from water as that's the biggest killer if you don't vent it's almost impossible to get the water out.
      Sorry if that's not clear

    Never seen this working. It's physics, don't do this. Just shoegoo the original holes and never mind this. This is crawler stuff. Any water inside the Xmaxx tires will blow them.
    Stop thinking of water behavior as a static fluid. Fluid dynamics guys, this is not a technical correct video, and dryland driving 85% throttle is the usual outcome of a working idea man.

    • @3SonsRC
      @3SonsRC  7 месяцев назад +1

      Well it actually does work because.... Physics😱👍
      There is a reason Arrma now does this with all their tires, Proline reccomend this, along with every hard basher in the industry, so while I appreciate your time to watch and effort to comment, with respect your wrong brother.... Every authoritive source disagrees.... So let's go with that.
      It's not a Crawler thing... I have never even crawled, is that your thing. But also in my experience I have never seen my tires exploding in years of RC because of doing this, this helps prevent explosion.... So I'm gonna continue to do what works for me and most dudes I run with🎯🤟👍.... But I do appreciate your time
      Have a nice day
