Hey all! I just picked up a used Phoenix and am getting acquainted with it. It all looks great but the issue I’m having is it seems I’m only getting sporadic power out of the front tires. It’s almost like the OD is in a neutral position, but I locked it out with the grub screw to ensure that wasn’t the case. Could I have stripped out the transmission when setting the servo up to shift the OD? It will sometimes engage, but then disengage again without touching anything…

As the title suggests; newbie, recently gifted a carbon kit. Want to mount the element knightrunner body to it as that’s what appeals to me. Is this viable? Thank you.

Anyone else waiting on these? I ordered months ago, still waiting on the fronts (clear). Was a little disappointed to see them show up in peoples tof kits but I’ve been waiting forever.

Anyone have any idea when they will be available? I’ve reached out to vanquish, they will not reply.

Does anybody have a good resource on the VT-1 Transmitter? I have searched on google + Youtube and couldn't find anything that was useful. I had to go to Yahoo search to find the manual and that is very limited. I am trying to set my channel 3 and 4. I just can't figure it out???

Anyone know when the VFD twin transmission will be available ? Or know where I can find one ? Thanks yall.

I bought the light kit for my Phoenix. It was assembled and i plugged it in but the headlights aren't coming on. What am i doing wrong? I've even assigned it to a switch and can turned everything ends on and off except the headlights

Any know if you can put different bodies on the h10 optic? Even if you have to customize it?

Hey all, I’m trying to pull the trigger on a VRD carbon build but I’m having trouble with choosing a few parts.

Here’s where I’m at so far:

VRD carbon kit

F10 aluminum axle housings

F10 aluminum front knuckle set (are these recommended?)

F10 brass portal front knuckle cover weights

Stubby conversion kit

Now here is where I am unsure. I was thinking about going with a HH revolver motor to go with the stubby kit but am completely at a loss as to which is the latest and greatest for this application.

As far as an ESC, is a HW 1080 a good choice here? Or should I look elsewhere.

Any recommendations for a servo? The shiny reefs options look sweet but what do you recommend?

I love the way the bfg crawlers look, are the g8’s what I should be looking at? I’ll be running on a mix of midwest soil and rock.

I have a dumborc x650-pm tx with x6fg rx I am thinking about using, any issue here?

Any other tips or things I am missing would be greatly appreciated thank you.

Question in title. I managed to break\strip a few teeth out of the front ring gear on my Stance when I didn't realize it was in a bind and can't find the part # that's listed in the manual anywhere. Everything I found on Google pointed me to standard Axial scx10 II ring and pinion gearsets being a match. I happen to have one of those gearsets sitting in my parts bin so I decided to try. The pinion is identical, but the ring gear is about a half mm too large for the housing.

Am I insane or is my Google-fu failing me?

While driving my Phoenix a blackberry vine wrapped around the right front wheel and completely stopped it. The picture shows the damage it caused in the transmission.

Why did this happen? Shouldn't the slipper have prevented this?

Thanks

Hello all, and thanks for your time in advance.

I’m currently super heavy into 1/24 scale crawlers and used to have a 1/10 Capra before they had any upgrades for them other than simple stuff…anyway I’ve since found an interest in getting back into 1/10 scale and was curious what’s the chassis setup to get and the axles? I’m looking for a high end build setup so whatever the best is or a few options of the best would be great.

I’ve seen the VRD Carbon kit, SCX10iii pro kit and hear the vanquish Capra axles are the way to go but I’m curious what your guys’ thoughts are.

Thanks again!

I live in central California so if anyone ever wants to meet up and crawl some 24 scale, or 10th once I build one…let me know!

In terms of supported aftermarket bits

I want to build my own vrd setup utilizing full metal axles, however it’s not clear which axles to go with? Are the F9 scx10 ii kits compatible/recommended? Or should I be looking at the vs4-10 currie axles (don’t see a kit just the housings)? I see F10 housings only, though they look on backorder, are these the “latest and greatest”?

Any help distinguishing these options is much appreciated!
