After Speedrun Crash - what went wrong & what's next - Arrma Infraction V2 GT

[@DoRC]

Ceramic bearings are only really advantageous in very specific situations. They get advertised as some sort of miracle cure for all bearing woes but in reality they are inferior to steel bearings and a lot of ways. I would just get some high quality standard sealed bearings and lubricate them with a thin oil.

[@RCPASS1]

@Do RC I agree with you on the ceramic bearings and that's exactly what I did with the steel bearing for the rebuild. Thanks for sharing, much appreciated!

Can't wait to see it up and running man

[@RCPASS1]

@James Bacon I have the car completely apart and hopefully this weekend I can start the build and upload a video. Thx for the support, much appreciated!

[@andrewwhiting5526]

The only problem I can see using the longer set screw from the spool is you'll weaken the shaft if you drill through it as there won't be to much of the shaft either side of the drilled hole

[@RCPASS1]

@Andrew Whiting - I took the diff lockers apart and checked the measurements, you are 100% correct, so I only made an indentation. I will clarify on my next Infraction video. Thank you for reaching out and sharing your knowledge, much appreciated!

@@RCPASS1 thanks for the info,yes just bought a new xlx2 while I wait for my other one get warranted and wait for the mailman for gears and new foams

[@laidoffgamer8344]

Are you using the stock dogbones? I know on my limitless they are prone to bending/warping during high speeds and cause tons of extra vibration.

[@RCPASS1]

@LaidOffGamer - I'm using flopack Spool and Dogbones. Limitless, infraction, felony, they are well known for that problem, not even the center support helps. Thanks for sharing and watching the video!

[@laidoffgamer8344]

@@RCPASS1 I just got in the mail the scorched parts front/rear dogbones cant wait to try them out. Good Luck and hope to se you faster

[@RCPASS1]

@LaidOffGamer They make awesome parts, congrats! Let me know how well they perform.

[@RCPASS1]

@Ashish Kumar The plan is to run a cap, i don't see a downside to it.

[@michaelcondrey8681]

@@RCPASS1 no cap pack needed for that esc plus it voids the warranty

[@jamesbacon5978]

Did you see how bad your wheels are so lopsided from that wreck

[@RCPASS1]

@James Bacon I did, they are missing foam also, wheels are done for but the good news is that new wheels arrived today :)
