That's a shift and a half right there.

@cj15941 Yup, shifts hard. No wonder it beats the drivetrain!

[MrOswaldo15]

i dont here it shift.?

[williamclark77]

@MrOswaldo15 It's definitely shifting. You can see and hear it at 00:07, 00:16, 00:24, 00:31, 00:41, 00:43, and 00:48.

Well why are your shocks rattleling people may think that they are broken, you should either tightin them or fix them hpi sells shock repair/maintence kits, my bad for saying it looks broken i just love this thing way to much, i wont let mine over rev like that woth no weight on the engine tho it can pop the piston or worse, gl

@NitroExplosion88 Sorry, didn't see this comment. They're rattling 1) because it's a pos Rovan. Haha. And 2) cause because the shocks are on rod ends. All the bajas (even hpi) are like that and move around. You can tell on these because it has those reservoirs to bounce. The shocks leaked like that out of the box. There was actually oil from them all in the box. Fail.

Yeah, it's not good to rev it too much unloaded. I made this video to post on a forum showing the 2 sp shifting.

@NitroExplosion88 It's not being revved here hard at all, barely 1/4 throttle. Just enough to make it shift and not held there. No harm done.

That rc looks broken look at all those parts rattleing.......And if you keep high reving your engine like that with no load youll have a broken motor to go with the broken down RC.....LOL

@TheShaddy123456 Sorry it took a while. I haven't checked youtube lately. That's a good deal. I haven't ran any two speed for a while. It's just too hard on the drivetrain when bashing offroad in deep sand or heavy dirt. I took it out not long after these vids. I hadn't heard of that brand two speed before. Hope it lasts for you. After this truck and things I've read I won't ever buy anything else from Rovan.

And I was not kidding when I asked you if you were interested in my rovan 2 speed I will sell it cheap 75.00 with the turtle 17t pinion I bought as well to go with it . I has the home in the aluminum spindle that holds the pinion gears to 6mm do it would bolt to my turtle clutch and it's ready to go if interested .
