My center driveshaft has been EATEN by rocks, its holding on for dear life atm, been milled down to bare minimum. Wish adding a dustcover was easier. Also my right front CVD has broke twice now. Seems like it got destroyed by a bad bearing, check those. My links are also shot. However, like yours, mine has been through hell at this point. Its like my old trusty. When the Xmaxx goes down for the count and other cars break down, this one usually is the last man stading. Also, my body has got stuck multiple times, but only after running it in dusty gravel areas.

I will come home from vacation to my new Mojave, freshly delivered. Life is good. Btw, thank you for this thorough review. I’ve watched them all and his one is comprehensive and well thought out.

You are 100% right about the suspension. The first thing I did to mine is install stiffer springs and thicker weight oil. Made a huge difference.

Very well! They do not perform like my gens ace or Spektrum batteries but for the price I can't complain. Personally wouldn't race with them. Too heavy.

There is a way to set the end points for the steering without the bluetooth, you just have to put it into learing mode.

This is true! Unsure if it is detailed in the manual that comes with the buggy. If not, it is in the transmitter manual online. The bluetooth module/phone app just makes it much easier and allows for quick, precise adjustments.

Your wrong about the 75% auto calculate thinking it’s a 3s
@smurfwithavette
8 күн бұрын
A fully charged 3s pack is roughly 12.6 volts (4.2v/cell). Storage voltage on my 4s packs is 3.8 volts per cell, with 75% charged roughly 4 volts per cell. 4 volts multiplied by 4 cells equals 12 volts being reported to the esc when plugged in. Esc will figure the pack (12v) is closer to a 3s (12.6v) than 4s (16.8v), and operate assuming it is a 3s pack, draining the voltage per cell well under 3 volts (absolute minimum I would want it at!). Only exception I can think of is MAYBE it knows my Spektrum batteries are a 4s because of the smart technology. Curious what your thoughts are.

@@smurfwithavette a 3s battery is a damn 3s battery no matter if it’s charged or flat! A 4s battery is a 4s battery no matter if it’s charged or flat. Can tell we live in the gender “fluid” era, when kids think a battery can choose to identify what “s” it is dependant on how charged it is. Seriously

@@mr33spitnbarz28not correct. The esc is not that smart and could overdrain the battery. You are not taking LVC for 3s vs 4s into account

The plastic chassis was a dealbreaker. I race with my ARRMA Typhon “TLR” tuned (nothing on that thing is actually TLR but OG Team Durango DEX8, but Horizon will use whatever branding they can) and it comes fully loaded without cheaping out in the aluminum parts.

But the Typhon does not have a sensored motor. Your paying for the electronics on this buggy. The chassis on this one is 4mm aluminum.

One thing id like to comment on post-video: Here in MI it is hovering around 100 degrees F. For climates over 90 I would recommend upgrading the ESC fan. I was able to fit a 30x30mm fan no issues. Its a bit tight but any 30x30mm fan (commonly used for motor fans) should work just fine. Prior to upgrading the fan I was hitting about 185 internal temp on the ESC. Now im closer to 150. 185 is the highest I want to see any of my ESCs at. For awareness max motor temp per Spektrum manual is 300 degrees F. Seems a bit high to me but have not come remotely close to that.

Hi, is that JUST with the Corsa sport? Are there any other mods done to the exhaust or engine?
@smurfwithavette

There is a aftermarket intake (probably not contributing to the exhaust sound), and Corsa Sport. There is a X pipe, a member on the Corvette forum mentioned that C6's between 05-07 have a H pipe from factory, and 08-13 have X pipe from factory. With this being a 2010 I am unsure if the X pipe is factory, or if its a Corsa X pipe. Lots of enjoyable burbles and pops when I shift/let off the gas. Loud enough to be a proper sports car but not overly loud either. No other powertrain mods to my knowledge, and I'm tempted to keep it that way for now!
