    For What It's Worth...

    Government seems to be trying to tax small businesses outside of certain states. I don't understand it fully but the less taxes we have to pay on stuff the better. Maybe it won't hurt or affect those purchasing on ebay but for those who use ebay as a means of income it will affect them greatly...

    General Cleaning Carb Gunk

    I took my thunder tiger pro .46 apart and got the bulk of it cleaned out. I took the carb off and am having trouble with the throttle. I can't get it to move or come out. It's stuck very good. How can I dissolve the 'glue'?

    General Air Filter For Trx 2.5

    This filter was part of the purchase of the tmaxx I bought recently. Is it any good as opposed to the 3.3 filter? Is it ok to use on the 3.3? The filter element is rotten so a good cleaning and replacement if the element will render it ready for action.

    Batteries Charging Nimh Packs

    Are the same principles used when charging a NiMh pack? I have an 1800mAh 7.2v pack which goes to my easy start controller. Should it be charged at 1.8A rate?

    Trucks Tmaxx Nimh Install

    I finally got around to converting my alkaline pack to NiMh. I got the harness from hobby town and installation was easy. I used my stock wire from the Rx and soldered it onto the harness which I clipped the too short wire from. The switch is on/off with the off position being charge mode. The...

    Trucks Tmaxx Knuckle Instruction

    I thought it would be helpful for others if I posted on how to put together the knuckle on a Tmaxx. The knuckle is the part of the truck that connects to the steering (on the front, pictured) and supports the truck via the wheels and axles. It consists of the plastic structure 'knuckle', two...

    Trucks Tmaxx 2.5 'rebuild'

    Got this truck today and man is it dirty. Not taken care of at all. But in actuality it's probably not as bad as it seems. There are a few parts I need to replace including skid plates, a shock spring retainer, glow plug wire, air filter, tires, and possibly the worst, the transmission needs to...

    General After Run Oil, Overrated?

    I have been watching some videos and reading up on nitro rc stuff. One of the things that has cought my attention the most is the mention of WD-40 used as after run oil. The mention of this is in the traxxas manual for the Tmaxx. This has got me wondering if after run oil is really overrated. Is...

    General Anyone Use This Fuel?

    I've been using this fuel in my truck. Traxxas wants folks to use their fuel in their trucks for obvious reasons but I'm wondering if there is any real difference between brands. This fuel claims to be superior to leading brands but that is probably some marketing BS.

    Trucks Tmaxx Ride Height

    I know the drive shafts are supposed to be level (horizontal) as this will, I assume, give them more strength at the U joints. Is there a non acceptable height setting? I plan on building a couple ramps and if the truck is sitting too low to the ground, then it could bottom out causing damage...

    Sjcam Sj6 Legend

    I got this camera today from Amazon. I wanted a camera that was versatile and could possibly be used on a quad. However, this one may be too large/heavy to be used as such and finding a suitable mount is proving difficult. I have not used the camera as of yet but the quality of it seems to be...
