    I hate that it shows the "@" now instead of our screen names. Anyway, Another great video Earl/ Giving me so many ideas! I wont ever go for your kind of speed record as I can see the bikes limitations. I used to have some speed wobble with my stock wheels after a few crashes. Dont get it on my street tires now but I am stock sill. But if you notice the steering twitch during shutdown then the servo itself may be a little hurt. One thing that helped out with slop and response for mine was adding the GPM aluminum servo saver and using the extra spring that comes with the bike. I no longer get that "wondering" center where from time to time you have to trim it left/right.
    Also there is no dampener fluid. If you see my rebuild video you can see I replaced the entire nose of the bike and there is ZERO fluid up there. May want to get the aluminum upper frame section one as well. My bike is still doing 42 being all aluminum now. I think your biggest issue is wheel/tires. I think the wheels need some weight. I was thinking Vitavon because they do add weight down low and they are perfectly machined.... problem is they are for the off road tires... wonder if they will make a street tire version? But those should also help with the speed wobble. Kudos sir on the record and keep up the great work. You have helped me a lot along the way!

      Appreciate the support watching the horizon Losi podcast talking about the way they looked at this rc to get it working right was thinking as if it’s a 1 wheel rc just the rear tire and hat was there break threw on getting it to work and stay up I can see what they mean by that as it doesn’t really matter what the front does it will stay upright if the gyro is working that’s why i decided to make that function first on 2S then go for speed runs 👌

    Sundays are definitely good speed run days. Well it’s moving in the right direction 65mph is mint ( for now lol ) I figured the smaller front tire would help with less rotating mass. The wobble must of been very minimal cause I couldn’t see any wobble in the video I’m definitely excited to see what you can get out of it once you start gearing it up 🤘🏼

  • @GordonStevens72
    @GordonStevens72 Год назад +1

    Are you certain the “Speed Wobble” isn’t from EMI/RF interference or harmonics from the gyro at speed which my be playing with the steering channel of the onboard Receiver (RX)? It appears the Wobble is pretty severe, more so than the “play” you demonstrate with the servo saver on the bench. The choke (small ferrite donut the servo wires pass through is there to help reduce EMI/RF interference. You shortened the lead and reinstalled the ferrite choke, generally you need to loop the wire through the choke as many times as you can so that it has the ability to do its job. Also, you may want to be certain the servo wires, RX, and its antenna are routed free and clear of the servo wires leading to the gyro. The Gyro is likely putting off all sorts of RF noise that we can’t see or hear - which my be causing glitches or otherwise undesired operation.
    I hope this helps, keep up the great work.

    If yours goes that fast on 3s motor rpm is 47-48,000. I put at 6500kv on 2s so motor rpm is 54,000. I still need to install the motor. Currently running a 5400kv. I think a 6500kv on 3 could get closer to the 100mph benchmark.

      I'll be honest with you. I have the money to buy, but I'm watching what everyone is fixing or changing to improve it. That's what I did with my LMT. I bought everything I needed and the truck at the same time. I have not had a problem with it, and I bash the crap out of it. With you having a channel, you are stressed for content, so thru watching your videos and others really helps the consumer if you do it right. Not being a youtuber, I can wait. Great videos, as always.

I hit 8" rocks, telephone poles, at 3/4 speed, and wonder how it survives. I've only had to replace the receiver because I left it on all night:-( I'm on my second tire, and third chain adjustment, and the fun doesn't stop. Can hardly wait for October to roll around so my buddies get thiers! Unfortunately, my crawler seat time has diminished the last month and a half!Lol@@claytonrc259

    The high speed wobble it gives thru on its way up to full speed, it will go thru the same wobble on the way down... its not the AVC ! It's the lil nob, that rides in the oblong hole in the actual steering rack. Make the nob bigger, or the oblong hole smaller... I used a small piece of rc wing hinge material, superglued it into place, then sanded it to fit nicely. Eliminated the wobble for me. Before you alter it, make a pass with the AVC 100% off, full clockwise.

      If your going to run 100mph, on your way up to a 100, at, let's say 72mph it gets a tank slapping shake, then goes away as you continue to 100mph, when you start desending down, when you get to 72mph the tank slapping shade will be there again. Steering damping with fix it. Remember the bikes normal top speed is 42mph.

    • @tonyrogers1683
      @tonyrogers1683 Год назад +1

      The AVC on the MX is the knob that says "mx6" counterclockwise is 100% vehicle control. When it's turn up high, the head unit, "steering" can oscillate, like the tail boom on a rc heli. That can cause a shake, cause at high speeds the radio, Rx, has a hard time making a decision on where it's at. When the mx6 is turned clockwise, it's letting the rider determine how far to lean, and how fast to lean. Mine is full stock, supermotos, little clutch work, and absolutely no drag resistance. Never been anywhere but on the tarmac. Ita make a 48mph pass. Plenty fast enough for my run area...
