    Ruckus is my first RC...

    I purchased an ECX Ruckus 2wd base model for $189 12/29. Upon purchase I bought a 5000 mAh 2s lipo and castle sidewinder 3/4600kv combo. Threw it all on and not a full pack later destroyed the plastic gears. No surprise. Went down to my LHS and bought the metal gears. Not even a full pack later...

    Video: Ruckus first time in snow

    Took my Ruckus out for some fun in the snow before it got too deep. The stock tires are not very good in the snow, especially for turning.

    Very noisy after a hot motor cool down. Did I burn up a motor or a transmission?

    My 1/10 EXC Ruckus Monster truck has been upgraded to support 3S. Besides the battery and aluminum wheel hexes, only the ESC has been upgraded because the stock ESC Horizon Hobby limits its ability to 2S, even though the ESC's manual says it supports 3S. I'm not happy about the forced upgrade I...

    Ruckus 4x4 stock shock oil wt

    I was working on my ruckus 4x4 (castle brushless) and found that my shock oil was terrible and needed replacement. Does anyone know what the stock oil weight was just so I can get a base line of what weight oil I could use to get similar preformance. Thanks!
