I got me a ecx ruckus in February of this year. I have been running it maybe 2-3 times a week since I got it. An about a week ago, I decided to upgrade, so I ordered a goolrc 3665-3800kv motor combo. Yesterday I got in mail, I realized that the motor shaft was way to big for the stock pinion...

So I'll start and use this thread to chronicle my 4WD adventure... I've found since owning my Ruckus that there lacks support for this particular machine. So I'll try to remedy that for this fantastic forum. Furthermore, anyone else with the 4X4 platform (to include the Torment) should post...

As many come to find out, the diffs in the mini ruckus don't stand up to much hard use. Within a few runs of the stock nimh pack I already had a 2wd truck. I ordered a new one for a quick fix and went looking for an upgrade. I shimmed the new one and it lasted longer but it still rounded the...
