Brass steering knuckles for the SCX24. I'll have to wait until Monday to see how they do on my testing rock

I went though a cycle of upgrading parts. Started running 6s batteries which lead to breaking axles, so I upgraded to aluminum ones. Then hubs started breaking, so I upgraded those to aluminum. Then I started stripping wheels so I went to 17mm hubs. Then I started breaking aluminum parts and exploding differentials, so I upgraded back to 3s batteries and started replacing the broken aluminum parts with rpm plastic ones. I came full circle...
I just wanted more weight for better stability when crawling. Even with the servo up front it won't stay planted on steep climbs
I thought about that...I don't know if there is a way to. The tires are glued to the rim to keep them in place. Maybe if I got the beadlock wheels
Flipped the shocks around...amazing how that little bit of weight rearranged makes it sit higher and not compress the springs nearly as much
I can see why people say to upgrade the steering servo. It gets pushed around with this big ass truck in the rocky stuff
My buddy bought an X01. 103mph out of the box. There’s literally nowhere you can open that thing up. In 2-3 seconds it’s far enough you can no longer see it well enough to control it.
I don’t think I have video of my buddy’s. This dude slapped a gps on his and got it going 135. Skip to about 3:15 and watch how quick that thing goes from out of sight back to out of sight again. He had to find a long straight stretch of rural highway just to clock it. It’s speed makes it literally the most useless rc car on the planet.
