  • ive yet to mess up a bearing... this may be a little overcautious i think

  • @Blueshit102 Oh I've had 2 bearings go out completely (rusted solid) in one single use when I didn't do a good cleanup, with 3 more also rusted through, but able to be saved after a lot of effort.

  • is using an air pressure a bad idea?

  • @plorwax As I said in the video, I recommend against using compressed air if the vehicle is actually wet, for the reasons noted in the video.

  • Oh, no wonder I keep frying diffs I thought they wer completely sealed, I just checked and 75% of my bearings are ceased wer do I get them

  • Hey Jang, In one of your videos on how to clean your RC you said that use water to clean your tires. In this video you say avoid putting water on your tires you will never get it out. So what should i do clean my tires with water and ever green or no please awenser quick

  • @plorwax no as long as it is low air pressure it will work, i perfer spray it down with water then get the low air pressure and it works good

  • this must take a long time

    what if someone did runs that dirtied thier rc car like every other day?

  • I just put my vxl Stampede 4x4 over the heat register in my house and it dry's the whole truck very well in the winter months. The heat gun may be a little hot if held in one spot too long.

    Great video with lots of tips Jang!!

  • @UltimateRCnetwork How about towel drying, My Stampede 2WD is VERY DIRTY!!, should I wash it or towel dry *Due to winter*

  • new clean time 1 or 2 times every 1 or 2 weeks
