I was wondering when more people would post issue with this RC.. I never even made a jump and got the SAME results... I only got to use it Twice in a open field and it broke.. Bummer for sure. FOR SURE IT'S NOT YOU.
When I ran the proline trenchers on my xmaxx I'd blow a diff I switched wheels and now it's not as frequent monkey metal
Guy you’re a treasure in the RC community. I’m still rewatching your old losi DBpro livestreams to double check my work and to make sure everything is as it’s supposed to be. 🍻
A few key upgrades become available and this truck will be around for a long time. Think about the first outcast 8s. It was like glass, but now it's a beast! At least we have more options!
No way that should of broke with that run
_Without having felt the ring and pinion my own self, I have to chalk this one up to them being improperly shimmed... if not.. they are using monkey metal! Absolutely in no world should this truck have grenade itself this fast after being rebuilt!_
_Waiting for you to crack this thing apart to see what actually happened! Praying this is not the rear diff you just replaced!_
_15:12__ 💀RIP!_
_Your in the realm of size with this one where I think you must be conscious about landing on power!... (ya don't do it!)_
_It really is nutz how much space you actually need to run a fifth scale at any sort of speed! You need a legit football field in your back yard! 😂 😂_
No slop after gear replacement thus my shock 😳
You do have some bad ass clay dirt and some wicked tires but i agree something isnt right redcat!
Ecocaged dropped a video 5 hours ago about new Vitavon gears and driveshafts for the Vigilante
Yes they've been ready for purchase
So basically it is an X-Max with the gears blowing out on time lol
Yes
hope you got yourself more than one pair of diff sets 🤣🤣🤣 .
I most definitely did $217 worth of spare parts should cover it 😂🤣😂🤣
I think it might have been worth it to take a look Immediately after you started hearing it sound different.
Surprisingly alot of things could cause the difference in sound. The way it sounds off throttle means its drive line related.
Big tires + big power = big problems
Even if the parts are free, what's your time worth?
How are parts free? Spent $217 in parts and I explain the issue this RC has directly due to my change in tries BUT now VITAVON will be stepping up to the plate.
The loose screws could contribute if it was loose enough for the ring gear to wobble. Heavier tires definitely stress diffs. That said, Exocaged trashed a ring gear from a cleanly landed jump, so maybe they’re a bit weak.
dam i would say there end because when hearing the metal grinding at first i was thinking the front diff from the nose dive jumps but with it being the back end not like it's your using an over powered 12s motor in there am sure heard 8 beeps when starting test 🤨 like another said maybe they picked up that monkey metal that are dear X-maxx's has with some of it's stock parts
Agreed👍💯
Holly cow, no, you just replaced that dif. Well the 2 grears outer, but dang, is there a crappier grears that Traxxas don't make? How is this possible?
💥BOOM💥 I feel shocked . . . . i KNOW these tires are heavy but STILL my LOSI EATS these for breakfast
Put longer screws in that diff…if they get a little loose it will make the ring and pinion bind on power …. Also keep the diff fluid on the thinner side… 1 million in center… 100k in back… 150-200k in front…. It’s all we can do until some makes aluminum diff cases… good luck
I like your idea of juicing up the diff and pinion! I tested using shock oil on my 6s hobbywing speed 4wd slash. Ive tested filling it at various levels and weights, thinest and least worked the best. I used black rtv to seal the case. Its a mess and yeah it still leaks out the bearings, but hey i like trying different things than others!
👍💯
center diff expands and causes diff pinion to squeeze tighter against the ring gear... we need metal center diff cups. I promise the problems will stop... ive been through 11 ring gears, 5 pinion gears, 2 center diffs. ive taken some notes. 1mill weight for the win. shim more often in center diff until they come with upgrades. it sucks.. but it is what it is
Real car guys get the ring and pinion thats what it is. I am really surprised they are not more like a real car where the ring gear sits in oil as fast as this moves its hard to keep grease on anything.
Now THAT would be MINT👍💯
Those tires are heavy , i just geared my Vigilante up to a 22t pinion . Gona try the Louis tires . The lhs i work at , a good majority of diff repairs come in with big rigs running those wheels and tires beside the losi 5th (real) scale .
Yes and that is my exact point My Losi can eat these things for breakfast but this red cat in turn with quality gearing should be able to as well 👍💯👊
@@rcguygarage I'm so sorry you having diff issues , I've been sending my rig. I did add 750k rear , 20 mill center and 250k front with Lucas heat grease on the ring and pinion .
Anything 5th scale should have real machined gears that come properly shimmed. I don’t have this truck, but assuming it has the cheap sintered powder metal gears.
Yes 👍💯
It always comes down to the diff and new models don't have aftermarket yet
I saw that roast, best part was kim Kardashian getting destroyed it was hilarious I almost peed myself lol
A saw zaw works cherry as a shaker tool, maybe double action with the sander you got.
Yeah I actually thought about going down to harbor freight and grabbing an El cheapo I just can't justify it just yet 😂😂😂🤣
@rcguygarage put it under the R&D fund 😆, it's cheaper than a diff I bet 😉
@@JoesGarage831 20% coupon😜 harbor freight Gold
@@rcguygarage those come in clutch!
Guy , There is NO WAY that is on YOU !!!! When you completed the part swap they sounded MINT and after watching your video TWICE I am blaming Redcat for using " GARBAGE METAL " in the gears !!!!! In my opinion any RC company should use the best metal for their gears since it is the MOST STRESSED OUT part on a car or truck ! I would gladly pay $10-$20 more for proper gears installed from the factory then go through what you had to do !!! Yes I know this is one way for Redcat or any Rc Company to save $$$$ but still one would think that they could cut corners on something else !!!!!
Yes I agree however if I use the stock tires they're soft enough to take up some of the aggressiveness of the MX43 fat pigs
I keep having the same issue on my notorious 6s. Blew a center and a rear diff and it's just been non stop.
I only thumbs up the comment because you commented not because of the issue you're having😜
That should not have blown out that easy you were not pounding on it hard...heavy tires or not that just seemed way to easy for breakage.
I like your line of thinking👍💯
It makes me wonder if whoever is makeing thier gears didnt quite get the recipie right in that manufacturing run ?
Of all the RUclipsrs I think you are the only one that broke a rear diff. Re-check driving habits, power on landing, ESC punch level.
I guess you're not seeing my point. It's all good👍 We can't all see with clarity. ESC punch is stock and something about the truck from day one has not been.
Ive gotta tear into my front differential on the Notorious this weekend cause it's clicking on me. That's definitely my own doing though. Im sure jumping and landing immediately on my nrakes is not good...lol! 😂 No mercy on that truck, and it takes it and lives it for sure 👍🤙
Yeah we can't all be perfect on that throttle control however regardless of these MX43s being fat pigs hopefully this will prompt quality gears to be made
The juice is worth the squeeze on them gears
I’m getting mixed reviews from this I’ll just wait to get it basically I like to jump big I dont want to deal with all these diff problems seems like a great truck but based off the videos I’ve seen needs work like any other car lol
if you wait you're wasting time that you could be having some smile for miles sometimes you need to look beyond what the supposed "review" is or at least analyze it a little bit more. I'm just showing Fat Pig MX43s and how they are not the correct tire for the type of driving that I have been recently doing. It also hopefully will prompt a company to make quality gears so that different tire / combo wheels can be used.
Agree that the gears should not have blown out on that run. Seems strange at the end that there was little drive to both sets of tyres. Perhaps the blown rear diff meant all the power was bleeding to the back through the centre diff and not transferring to the front?? All the teeth must have gone from the rear diff. Proper frustrating!
No I actually have the center diff set up the way Redcat had it at factory now so the torque split is very loose I was hoping this would save the rear gears🤣😂
🐶char dawg says nice tail tap from yer pup at the end,🐶 sorry bro she's a fire team fan lolz Great content take care from nord Minnesota 👍
She's an awesome pup
That ring gear and I called that gear the crown gear and it looks like a crown
And that would be correct 👍💯👊
I got a ? On the wov truck my remote got unbided from my esc every time I turn the car on and then my remote it goes full throttle on its own can u help with the problem,,
Call Buddy RC 614-808-4488 9am-4:30pm Eastern Time for help
Yeah man.. you need steel gears. No way that should of happened.. 100% no f#@kn way!
There are those that know how to drive, and those that don't!
There are those that know how to play music, and those that don't!
Hey man, was wondering if you ever found out what the issue was with the gearing? Ours is down again after a rear diff fix and sounds very similar. Digging into it today... just was looking to see if you did a follow up yet and saw nothing,
I'd like to see if RTV would seal the diff cases. Maybe the tires have too much grip. I only saw one landing on throttle and I know that is all it takes. I still think Redcat should use better metal for gears. It would help sales and keep people less frustrated. Good content Guy ✌
This is the type of comment a Redcat needs to see 👍💯 It's a great truck with weak gears
Hopefully they will make an aluminum center diff case to hold the sun gears together and not flex so much.
My internal gears are actually thrashed and I did know this I've Just been doing some experimenting with this truck I guess 🤣😂
This truck will be awesome once someone makes better gear options for it.👍🤙💯
💥BOOM💥 this is the comment that they need to see
Bacon grease..Get Outta here Guy,the grease from a cooked chicken is about 30000 cst,ideal.Bacon is about 50000 cst at room temperature.Although Bacon grease when running ya truck smells better.lol.Good luck.✌️
We're gonna have a go with the BACON GREASE DIFF LUBE 😂🤣 maybe a new brand of lubricants PIG RC😂🤣😂🤣
@joseywilds3133 HELL YEAH BROTHER 🐖🥓
Damnit redcat is already running the price of breakfast 🍳
@rcguygarage you might be on to something there 🤔🤣👍🤙
Wow man! This is absolutely ridiculous! There is no way that the rear differential couldn't handle that run. Soft metals or what!? 🤔
MX43s are definitely gear killers hopefully this will prompt quality gears to be made It's still an amazing truck
If the screws are backing out I would swap the case to aluminum so you can loctite them😎
Could have been loose from factory
@@rcguygarage could of been or it’s just going to be a issue like the arrma 8s rigs🤷🏻♂️
What did you expect with the heavy ass proline tires
For a company to STEP UP TO THE PLATE and for QUALITY GEARS to be produced so this ABSOLUTE BEAST of a MACHINE can THRASH the competition😜👍💯👊
Wasn't you. Man, I hope Redcat fixes this issue. I've been eying the Vigilante for about a week now. I won't be able to pull the trigger for a few months though, because I just pre ordered that sweet, sweet Robosen Megatron.
Hopefully, this factory issue will be fixed by then
Gotta go vitavon or saga gears to get anything that lasts. Can’t tell you how many brands I tried before I found the secret sauce. The spiral cut gears from vitavon have lasted forever in my sledge. Very happy. And speaking of environmentally friendly, I went to look at lawn mowers today and found out that California only sells battery powered mowers now like wtf?! I’m gonna have to make the trip to Carson city NV for a damn mower! 😂 freakin commifornia
Yep I've been hearing about the small engine Cali restrictions
@@rcguygarage yeah it’s the lawn mowers that are causing climate change 💯
Wait a minute, i thought you replied you were to swap out those badlands? I'm sure I'm not the only person that will say those heavy wheels are destroyers of diffs/gears in large light in the ass RC's. Those badlands stripped both front and rear in my Xmaxx after TWO fking runs. They are too heavy for those mostly plastic lightweight RC's ! LOL. Yeah, EXO runs them only after installing all that free Vitavon junk on his Xmaxx.
Yes it's a SURE FIRE WAY to "test" the strength of the gears. My Losi EATS those MX 43s this truck SHOULD be no different. 👍💯
The DBLXE? Isn't that RC 20 or more pounds? I guarantee you, if you went back to stock wheels it won't happen, if it does in under three packs ill buy you four wheels of your choice at that Hobby store you're always plugging. All i gotta do is order and put it in your name lol.
@@spenn2007 32 pounds of PIG loaded with 9k packs
I watched the running portion of this vid, four times, it just looks awesome ripping around. You're ruining my purchase motivation, i dont want gear issues. Ima wait to see what you do before buying this. Are there heavy-duty gear options like with the Xmaxx, and will you swap out those wheels and test stock wheels with new stock gears/diffs? Time will tell lol.
@@spenn2007 this RC is a for sure buy it for me. Even with the "issues" I'm showing it's cause I'm doing something MOST KNOW isn't good for this RC and others like it. This will also PROMPT QUALITY GEARS to be produced. This truck is still the best 5th scale I've driven
What was dragging on the left side at the end of that run? Also have you found out i fit was the ring and pinion again in the rear or something else? We have 1 broke tooth on ours that we caught, and still have in the truck for the past 3 runs. Just wondering what this was in the end?
The truck picked up a random stick on the left rear and I haven't had time to blow it apart but I'll be doing that today.
@@rcguygarage OK.. thought maybe it was a drive shaft that popped out but assume you would have seen that or addressed it if it was just that. Curious to know if it was the same issue or not... May be a shimming issue if so. Good luck!
@@NPCRC from what I saw when I installed the new gears it was not a shimming issue as I checked before and after tightening down the rear case half
@@rcguygarage then hopefully its the internals or a different diff!
Looked like landing on power.
If that's what you saw👍💯
So wat u call the gear on the motor it’s a pinion gear as well
Yep
RC2G I'm going thru my diffs..Is it just me, or are the diffs really small? My 6s Kraton's diffs are larger. What do you think?
Awe mannnnn. The video I've been waiting for. And looks like those diffs are weak as shizzle. Oh man I feel bad for you. Redcat has made some bad design errors in there last few cars. This is no suprise but I was hoping for much better. At first I thought it was just those heavy wheels. But nah. Looks defective to me. I feel a Corally issue here. The love of plastic everywhere isn't always a good thing. Dam.. I suppose you know to check the diff for excessive play when reinstalling. I'd bet the plastic housing got hot and warped. Dang redcat
no warpage of diff case i did check for slop there was none. Redcat really does have a VERY good truck here it just needs some slight improvements for the type of drive i do and expect out of this rc👍
@rcguygarage gears snapping is not a good sighn. I appreciate the descriptive reply. Such a cool looking truck. Perhaps you should put stock wheels back on.. test and see. 🤷♂️
@@SlickTrickRCIs it me or are the gear teeth about the same size as the 1/8 Kyosho Usa-1? Look very small for a 1/5 car.
First time in my life I hear guy say the f word 😂😂. I know u was mad. I wouldn't blame you.😂. I would say it too after just fixing it.
Yeah that's why I did the disclaimer 🤣😂🤣😂
@rcguygarage guy I ain't knocking it sometimes be in the moment like thang I just fix it then boom here we go. That's freaking crazy. Maybe it need a shim. Ain't no way you just fix that and doing it again. Fact tires little heavy but still shouldn't strip again. You wasn't even going hard on it I consider that light bashing lol
@@KalsRcAdventures Yeah DMX43 is definitely are rough man on pot metal gearing but hopefully this will prompt a company to make quality gears because this truck just has it in so many other areas
@rcguygarage right I like the truck performs really good. Just that monkey metal 🤦🏾♂️
I think you should do the lash test. Paint one of the gears and see where they fall on each other. Or it's just plain inferior metal.
It is something I thought about I took fairly detailed photos with flash on and flash off sent them to Redcat Just so they could see I'm not looking for a warranty It's just a really do have a good RC that could possibly be hindered by lesser quality gearing and that's where a company can potentially fail but I am also adding fat pig MX43's is into the mix But there's a reason why I'm doing that Even if I did check for backlash I'm not sure in this scenario that you could really adjust for that and no I could shoot the pinion out slightly but that's not how RC stuff is designed I'm sure you're well aware. It is just designed to take money from your pockets 🤣😂🤣😂 and maybe try to give you a good time while doing it
@@rcguygarage that's for sure. .. could have a summer house in the bahamas
The wheels your running are stock diff killers ☠☠.... To much rotating mass especially if you do any correction in the air or if you gas it after a landing... They ate through so many of my stock X-Maxx diffs... Also shimming the front/rear pinion gears will help a lot, they do have some slop... 👍👍
when I put the new gears in I checked for slop there was none I didn't use a dial indicator these MX43s are definitely fat pigs but hopefully this will prompt quality gears to be made
Ya u think it’s not ur driving style. Come on Guy. U hit all the rocks with that truck in ur backyard track. It’s a 1:7 scale, shits heavy. It’s gonna brake taking all those hard landing and landing on the gas is hell on those diffs.
And nose dive after nose dive lol. I think it’s ur fault.
Yeah I don't know guy We aren't all perfect on an imperfect surface however these MX43s are fat pigs Don't you think this might prompt a company to create quality gears that was my thought and as far as my driving goes I think my wording was pretty clear I'm not going to take all the credit 🤣😂
Yes definitely
Howdy guy
I think it could be the Heavy Badlands
or just 💩 gears from china
That's the Same problem I had for a year with my X TURD
I even got 5x Hardin gears & still Breaking the teeth off the ring & pinion so
I have no more X TURD
Yes the Fat Pig MX43s are definitely rough on drivetrain and that's why I did it to an extent
@rcguygarage I was thinking of putting a Leopard 5892 1000kv & changing the pinion
i have a max5 & my Kkpit 1373 servo that are not being used know
& I have the MX 43s also
What the heck happened ? Fill us in later hopefully . I m curious what exact part failed besides the diff . Sorry man . I know you can figure it out though . I hope it’s something stupid and easy 🤞. The track is looking better and better
No way man. Id check the ring gear mesh clearance. Either the metal is junk or the case is allowing to much flex allowing it to 1 two skip a few. Yikes.
Yeah the MX43's is are definitely fat pigs hopefully this will prompt a company to make quality gears
Those badlands gotta go they are to heavy for the driveline
😳🤫 SHOOOOSH if my dbxle2 can eat them THIS monster truck should as well
@@rcguygarage dbxle doesn't have traxxas looking monkey metal gears
You're talking Losi gears compared to redcat gears. LOL@@rcguygarage
Gotta love bacon grease the best lol
PIG RC 😜👍💯👊
Bacon scented smokey goodness on the rc guy back yard track

@@rcguygarage from the people that bring you utterbutter comes "pig fat" 😆 for those early morning rc adventures to lunch break bashes to after dinner sends you will get a hint of crisp bacon in the air reminding you that we live in America and your gear grease is bacon scented
@@onemansvideos2134 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣
Amain's sales red cat vigilante so I can't see why know one has made better gears by now.
personally myself , I wouldn't touch redcat with a barge pole 🤣🤣🤣 .
I smell a recall just like the Machete
Sheesh im gonna stop complaining about my xmaxx gears. If you cant drive your rig like that then whats the point? You cant even say you bashed it. $teel City Pittsburgh in here
was that the rear again or the center?
Rear
The sound of a thousand people sighing. 😢
I'm running lithium grease in my rear gears in front on the fire team
I haven't pulled them apart since but she's still ripping.. bacon is spendy.not wasting that good stuff on RC lolz
It wasn’t you or your driving bro… that thing takes a lot more abuse than that. It just does! So, hopefully this is a one time thing, I mean replacing the whole drive train. Do that and something breaks… then make Redcat fix that mess starting with yours!!
How is the body holding up?do you have spare body's for your truck.?
ZERO body issues. I did bump up the center brace early on to STOP the mid flex
Wow that's crazy don't think u were that hard on it might have to hold off on that truck go the xmaxx way till someone makes better gears I was watching your old xmaxx videos and u ran that truck alot harder I felt jumping it and stuff seems pretty decent...
Both trucks are VERY good. XMAXX has been around since 2015 this Redcat BLOWS IT AWAY on handling. Both trucks struggle with gears and these specific Prolines MX43's and that's my point. My hope is QUALITY GEARS will be produced. 👍💯
I’m ass uming it wasn’t the ring gear.
You COULD be ass uming a good direction
They are all Designed RTR not all buyers run them the way we do .Why they develop upgrade parts and Mods For the average user the RTR perfect. You get what you pay for you have the option Mod them take out Tanks
Yes Redcat Racing is really onto something with this truck. It just needs some QUALITY GEARING 👍💯👊
Bro me and you have the same issue with large scale rc. I think k it's more then team not one pack for us. Think I'm giving up on anything over 1/7th.
Yeah but like I said before this RC I really said I was done with large scale. This truck told me different
@rcguygarage well I'm happy to hear that not sure if I want a rigg to change my mind or not? Atleast my wallet isn't sure lol. She is a sick looking rigg.
@@irish33rc9 if you drive one in stock form my guess is your wallet would feel lighter and azz cheek would thank you for that. So far everyone I've turned onto this truck has thanked me. Nothing is perfect but DANG this is one hell of a shot at it
Something is going on with that truck and it ain't good my man!! You were not doing anything out of the ordinary!
Things that make you sick to your stomach. Smfh
These companies have got to do better with their non CNC metal parts.
Yeah the stock tires are a different story but that's not the point hopefully like what you said quality gears will be made This truck is mint
you mixed diff grease and was landing on throttle.
Yep👍💯
No that was not you but I'm still getting one lol
The truck is totally worth it this tire and wheel combo is known to strain gearing 👍💯
No way you should be blowing gears that quick
I agree to an extent. The truck isn't designed around heaviness and the MX 43s are FAT PIGS
It's got to be the tires. I haven't seen anybody else have a problem that still have the stock tires on.
It is But the point I'm trying to make is it shouldn't be and hopefully this will prompt quality gears to be made 👍💯
@@rcguygarage what's the weight difference from the stock tires?
@@tobybennett6582 it's not just the weight but it's very noticeable. The 43's are a much stiffer compound as well adding to the gear carnage.
Center diff this time?
I still haven't replaced the planetary gears in the center diff yet but I'm sure as you saw
Omg bro! How is that possible?
Cause MX43's 😜😂🤣😂🤣
Dukes of hazard, RC style
Not justified at all. You have every right to be upset.
Yeah the MX43 fat pigs are definitely rough on gearing
I have 3 Redcats. The Gen 8 is the only good one.
Incredible how those input ringion gears gave out so easily.
(-:
🤣😜 killing me GUY
Those wheels and tires are too heavy Guy.
They are but should they be hopefully this will prompt quality gears to be made for this thing
Damn right! brake cleaner should dry start a drag engine!
Dude I totally tried to use brake clean to start my lawn mower engine and couldn't figure out why it wasn't working until I saw her on the goddamn label non-flammable I took that s*** and threw it right away to the dumpster
@@rcguygarage lol… I found out the hard way after drowning my side by side and needing a little extra flammability… not freakin flammable? What the hell!
“This truck is mint”……diff gears immediately strip out literally right after fixing.
Looks good, appears to drive amazing but damn. “Mint” it cannot be.
GUY this RC must be made to handle the abuse. I can only hope QUALITY GEARS will be produced. They really are onto something with this RC
What about CBD oil asking for a friend
It all depends upon how you're installing it 🤣😂 Wear gloves
Dude. Seen the vids. You barely jumped that thing. Id say redcat needs better gear materials.
I KNOW I'm asking lots with such a pig of a tire combo BUT I'm really hoping for QUALITY GEARS💯👍
Mabee we will have to hound mc2 racing to make some or vitavon
We can only hope
NO LOL, He enjoys the handling, you can see how well that RC performs, well when it's not stripping gears LOL.
@@spenn2007 GUY the truck is amazing I just want it to be better. Redcat is REALLY onto something with this newest beast. It should only get better from here👍💯👊
Aw guy, don't try to self right, it's not worth it
Got a strain that drivetrain No way I'm a poet and I didn't even know it
I’m blaming you! User error! Stop blipping the throttle!!!! You gotta be smooth on the throttle! I see soooo many people drive like this!!!! Everytime you blip the throttle you’re jerking the gears non stop! Over and over again be smooth trust me adjust your driving style!!!!!
No I can't do it guy I'll just have to suffer until quality gears are made and until then it's pedal to the metal that's why I'm called throttle toggle
@@rcguygarage be smooooooth!
@NOR391 You should see me when I drive the TA or Camaro 🤣😂🤣😂 smooth definitely ain't my throttle position with clutch dump🤣😂
@@rcguygarage that’s fine but when you going down the road your not continuously stabbing the throttle! It would be a prettty uncomfortable ride!!!
@@NOR391 Guy it all depends if your rear wheel drive or not 😜 I know exactly what you're getting at when I fly my drone I can't do that either though You supposed to two finger thumb an index the controls I just can't guy It's not in me to retrain myself from the old futaba attacks
? Ever find out if it was your rear again?
NOPE kicked it to the curb and left outside to MARINATE IN THE RAIN for real
@@rcguygarage the Vitivon gears are the solution to the gears, if that was your issue. They are a thicker mod (1.75) and spiral cut. Has worked for a few other people. We just ordered ours after the rear went out again. I think they are the solution to getting you back to happy with the truck!
@@NPCRC yes I was in chat with Vitavon before creation👍💯 I still want REDCAT to fix their issue 👍
@@rcguygarage Have you spoke with them about it? I did and at the time, they were suggesting that it was not a repeat issue and wanted to question what oils were being put in the center. We had tried 20mil and went down to 1 million after the first diff issue. Happened again and now have 500K in it, but too thin for the power of the Castle motor, even stock, imo. Even if redcat realizes an issue, they will need time to correct it. The Vitivon gears seem like the better choice, atm, cause they are ready NOW and beefier then the stock, which should solve the problem before Redcat can even get something else out. You gotta do you though. I was just checking in on others that were having "repeat" diff issues to see if they were actual repeat issues like we saw!
Yes, they are determined to resolve any issue in-house provided/given to what arises or whatever comes up within reason.
Wheels and tyres get rid of them , it's like a arrma kraton 6s put smaller wheels on a kraton your be surprised,
Yep been saying this from the beginning BUT there was a METHOD TO THE MADNESS . . . VITAVON is on it👍💯
@@rcguygarage RC guy garage is the best 👍
That sucks guy. Is it cause of the heavier tires?? Just sucks bro. Hurry up someone to make some better gears
VITAVON is already on it 👍💯
OMG...... like really.. was that even 10 mins running, and just normal light bashing... Man those gears are junk... Obviously the same ppl who make the standard Traxxas gears... Dude I'd be ripping after that as well... You take time to strip it all down and rebuild then THAT..... NOPE!.....I was thinking should the pinion gear need a shim I don't know bro that's wild.
MX43s are definitely bad for this truck
I blame the tires
You would be on the side of the MAJORITY however what I'm hoping is that a company will STEP UP TO THE PLATE and make QUALITY GEARS for this MACHINE
What was the drag mark on left rear?
It’s seems better when it’s damp bro..
Only just a little
@@rcguygarage well the dust is lower and your traction seemed to be better…
also happens all the time with another but very expensive truck , the RAMINATOR 🤔 🙄 . I refuse to buy these kind RC'S that bust diffs too easily every time you run the damn things 🤔 🙄 .
