i accidently did this in a maverick atom once (i adjusted the throttle trim and it went shooting of) it disapeared under the water for a while and then came back up. i dried it of as quick as i could and it still works (yaaaaaay :). cool video. i bet you cant get one of those cars to skim over the top of the water.
@traxxasmaniac123 Ever been to a mudfest event? Well I guess not because this is considered mudding even in the real world of offroading. Its muddy ass water with a slick bottom.....
@traxxasmaniac123 They actually last a long time. As long as your running a good filter and you have the truck covered with WD40 it is fine. My truck has a 2.5R in it which is much more durable then 3.3's (I know this from experience cause I run a Hobby Shop) and I think this has alot to do with it.
@rhys10055 And this is coming from a tea sipping brit. Who once again doesnt have shit to show for anything. Shut your fucking mouths if you have nothing better to say...
@dvonlangen Put silicone around all openings in the servos except for gear obviously. Put a balloon around the reciever and just used a good amount of WD40 for the rest.
The Savage X sure took for ever to get out of the mud hole the T-maxx had no problem and it isn't even tuned right yet and it got out of that mud hole without a problem
Huh? They've been broken in a looong time ago. And both these trucks still run so, its not killing them. You just gotta take extra steps when doing this to take care of them.
If you really wanted to yes. I dont recomend doing anything like this unless you are willing to take the chance of possibly braking something. Ive never had any problems but you never know right. lol
True. Drive what you makes you happy in the end. However electric is more powerful and quicker than nitro now with large lipos and powerful brushless motors.
Yea I can agree, Lipos are great I just dont like how volitile they are when it comes to water and if you drop them on accident and stuff. I work at a hobby shop and I see puffed and melted lipos all the time. I started with my first truck being a T-maxx when I was 11 and Ive had nitro ever since.
great vid i want to get started in building rc cars also buy, sell, and trade business because they are just so awesome and i luv sitting on my computer and watching rating and commenting on other peoples videos. Great vid.
All depends on what you like. The T-maxx can go over alot more stuff. Stumps rocks tall grass ect... But the Slayer is Waaaaay faster and its alot of fun to drive. I have both trucks, but if your looking for something that will go over anything then get the T-maxx. If you like speed and scale looks get the Slayer.
No the servos are easy to install. Four screws and that will remove em. Then you just have to unplug them from your reciever. Its pretty easy. But yea the only other thing I think youll wanna do is take a small party balloon and wrap up your reciever and sinch the end with a zip tie. And you should be good to go dude. Good luck and have fun.
does anyone know were i can find some cheep water proof servos, i look all over, hobby stores, ebay, idk were to find them, please send me the link! ( nice video by the way 5 stars)
I didnt have them water proofed here. They didnt screw up but they did slow down a little bit. I did water proof them afterwards with some silicone and that kept them dry.
How or what kind of clutch do you run? I tried with that with my revo and the clutch just started slipping so bad it wouldn't even move until I pulled it out of the water. Did you do something to make yours not slip or do you run aluminum shoes or... ?
Your gonna hate me for this....No actually I dont run anything but a stock clutch. My slipper is tightened down all the way then backed off an eighth of a turn. Thats where you kinda want it to be...I think thats probably whats happeneing to yours. Its the slipper clutch thats giving in.
I Thought that myself about the slipper and put a new one in it. It still did the same in the mud/water. I tried to tighten it down but it's the clutch bell shoes that are slipping on mine. They are the high stall clutch shoes from traxxas but they don't work when wet lol.
Damm,thats crazy. Yea the high stall ones are nice but I never did have em in the mud. Well, I hope everything works out man. Leme know if you find a solution to it.
they dont need a snorkle ive put my t maxx 2.5s exhaust under water and it stayed for a secoong in idle then died only because the idle was too low...but just as long as your holdin the gas a little bit yoou wont screw anyting up...unless your a dumbass like me and forget to waterproof your steering servo:P btw does anybody know why the steering servo keeps turning by itself?? it turns right then left then back and doesnt stopmunless i shut it off plz tell me..
The snorkle wouldn't do anything for the exhaust, it's for the air intake/air filter. Your servo just got water damage, not the gears. If it was the gears it wouldn't move the front tires at all.
the servo acted up long after water bogging.... and i know it does nothing to the exhaust im just sayin that the engine might not be able to push out the water so it might stall
Try another servo plugged into the same channel on your receiver to find for sure if it is the servo or the receiver. Probably just the servo.
Yes, it's not good to get water up the exhaust if it dies but it won't stall the engine out. Just keep on the throttle lol. Also, to save your electronics, use WD-40 after every water run. Spray the insides of damaged electronics down and dry them after. It's worked for me many times and saved me alot of money.
i got the servos to stop free spinning by cleasning all the conections to the servos then i blowdried everything really nicely..that worked for me, but there is no more torque in the servo so it cant even turn the tires in the air anymore..i need a new reciever, crystals, steering servo, gas tank, transmission, front left axle, body mount, and a whole front suspension set all because i drove it without testing the steering and range..ended up in the side of some guys house:|so yeaah..just dry it
what fun! i wish my tmaxx would not act funny when i start it when i start it, it runs for like 3 minutes then when you give it gas, it just sits there and revs. anyone know this problem? please help!
Yea the snorkel I was thinking about but the exhaust deflector it really doesnt need. It goes good in the water even with the exhaust under the surface.
No it doesnt wreck the engine unless you got alot of water in it and tried starting it. Ive had water in the engine before but I was still able to pullstart it back up. White smoke and water shoots out the exhaust. Its pretty awsome lol.
how is it not shorting out or getting flooded? what upgraded did u do
