    Shredded stock differential :-D

    So... obviously plastic sucks.. but did this happen due to a slipper clutch being set to tight? I replaced it with metal gears, I still want to learn though. My friends that put my ECX AMP MT together for me and from what I could tell.. the slipper didn't slip at all so I think that is why it...

    Torque and gearing revelations on a 4000 kv

    I played with upping the pinion gear to a 22 tooth thinking it would ease some torque and push it to the top end. It did give the truck a ridiculous top end speed, which you would never be able to control on a short course, but I immediately started stripping spur gears. I stripped my third in 2...

    converting an Amp MT into a K5 Blazer

    Well, I just lost the whole story I just typed, but here's the quick version and some pics. I got an Amp MT build kit for my son for Christmas and a few months later got one for myself. I trashed the original body and wanted to do something fun, so I got a 1980 k5 Blazer body from Proline. I...

    Waterproofing ECX AMP MT receiver?

    Hi, i'm new to RC and got an Amp Mt for Christmas. I have recently upgraded to a Radient Reaktor 3500kv brushless system and an Etronix Pulse Rx/Tx. While reading the Radient instructions it said not to run in the wet as it is likely that my receiver is not waterproof. I have checked the...

    SUV body on amp MT?

    Has anyone put a SUV body on your amp MT? If so what did you use to move your body mounts? I'm installing the apocalypse body from proline. And adding the exo cage from the traxxas summit. But the stock body mounts are to short and not even close to being where they are needed. If anyone...

    Huge throttle/reverse delay with Kinexsis motor/ESC (KXSS0500) and AMP DB

    I'm relatively new to RC cars and have an AMP DB and an AMP MT. Recently, the MT's steering-servo crapped out, and, while I was repairing that, I decided to upgrade the ECS/Motor to one that could naively support LiPO without the need for a Low-voltage-alarm. $120 later, I had the titanium...

    Best shocks for track use?

    I'm looking for new shocks to put in my Amp (which is basically a Circuit now) for off road carpet track use. I'm debating between ECX Aluminum, Traxxas big bore, and Hot Racing aluminum shocks. The track doesn't have any massive jumps, and has small bumps in it if that helps.

    Amp motor options

    I'm planning on to getting a myself an Amp truck to match my son's (which he'll like) but want to upgrade mine a bit for a bit more speed, which I'll be able to dial out with dual rate settings so we can race them together when we go out and be fairly even. I know I'll either need to get a new...
