Axial SCX24 Gets a Reefs RC Micro 99

[@sitlos.]

I have reefs in all my crawlers including the scx24 c10. Love them also! Great servos and great quality. 👍✌️

[@johnlujan8706]

Thanks for the video! I'm going to install a Reefs 99 in my Deadbolt. I see it now. Thanks again.

[@BuyitBreakitFixit]

Thanks for watching and commenting. Glad the video helped out.

[@johnlujan8706]

@Buy it Break it Fix it I'm thinking to add a thin, flat piece of plastic under the servo. I had already trimmed the mount earlier today. Now I see it. Should try to approximate the depth so, to be able to align the horn. Right? Already purchased aluminum fix link steering rod from HR.

[@BuyitBreakitFixit]

@@johnlujan8706 yup. Sounds like you got it. Just make sure that horn lines up, as you said.

That thing is crazy strong! 89oz @ 6v, 99oz @ 7.4v, and 115oz @ 8.4v... also faster. As a comparison, the savox SH-0255mg has 54oz @ 6v. The Savox SH-0350 has 36oz @ 6v. The 0255 is a bit too long i think. And the 0350 is close to the stock size, but is not metal geared. I was going to get the 0350, even though 36oz is good, i want more power, but the 0255 is too long unless i move my bumper out, and the horn and steering link arm would be sticking out a bit. So.... With crazy better power 89oz! And a better size than the savox 0255, I'm definitely going to get one of these. BUT im gonna have to save some money, I'll just put this in my comp crawler scx24.

[@taylor22222222]

Thanks for the video! I'm saving for this same servo + mount & horn after my $15 emaxx went out not too long after a lot of upgrades and added weight.. and I especially appreciate the tip about grinding down the top 2 mounting positions--I knew exactly where you were going with that since mine liked to do the same thing and get caught up on the frame rails (and bumper extensions).

[@BuyitBreakitFixit]

Glad it helped you out. stock servos are so weak and just don't last. thanks for watching and taking the time to comment.

[@DampActionRC]

Can’t wait to see the running video 👍 Seems like an expensive replacement, not knocking the servo, it’s very quiet and powerful but at half the price of the whole rtr... Top of the line micro crawler upgrades you got there for sure. All that beautiful brass 🤤

[@BuyitBreakitFixit]

Yeah, you definitely want to be all in on your build for this purchase. I have a number of reefs products and never had any issues with their stuff. Just showing my support.

[@stpbasss3773]

Yah for like 26$ you can get the little orange savox and it's fine. My friend runs the savox in his c10 and it's not as long as this reef's either so its easier to rig it up.

[@Braveblackjeep]

Nice install! That stand is awesome!!

[@BuyitBreakitFixit]

Thanks Shelby. The stand is super cool. I found out that my friend actually designed it himself.

[@angeloubarcelo8969]

Does your friend sell that stand?...would really like to purchase one...

[@andrewrichey7374]

Appreciate the info, this is the Servo I want to get, got the E Max right now, with the bang RC gear servo mount for the E MaxSo I should be good for the amount, as always appreciate sharing your videos. I enjoy them all, and yes be good to people people be good to you have a great day

[@jamesswift4641]

Looks like a strong servo,cool mod👍👍💪💪✌✌👊👊😎😎🤘🤘

[@BuyitBreakitFixit]

Thanks man. Hope all is well with ya

[@GrimJerr]

I bought a Gen 8 Axe a couple months ago and went goofy with mods and scale stuff, so when I decided to get an SCX24 I told myself I wouldn't go crazy with Mods. My SCX Deadbolt arrives on Tuesday this next week .......................................... and I already have A Motor, Servo, Servo Tray, Extra L,M,S Link set, L,M,S, Drive shaft set, Treal Wheels, Treal steering link set, Treal Shocks, Patagonia MT crawler tires (back order til Jan), so Mickey Thompson Baja Claws on the way, an extra battery, 3 types of connector leads JST-JST, JST- f JR, JST PH 2.0, and a Dynamite .050 hex driver. I hate* when I lie to Myself. *not really

[@BuyitBreakitFixit]

Ahh man, I laughed so hard at this comment. Thanks for that. Ugh, yeah, I tell myself the same thing everytime. The only way for me not to buy parts is, not to buy anything new. Lol

[@ryanwalter757]

You know theses servo's make one hell of a hectic servo winch design for small compact size areas that can end up towing up to 28 lbs at 8.4 v

[@BuyitBreakitFixit]

Yeah, I have seen people making them into winches. Nice compact design with plenty of power.

[@RC4all]

Very cool upgrade 👍🏼

[@BuyitBreakitFixit]

Thanks. Appreciate you taking the time to comment. 👍🙏💯

[@jdssurf]

hey bro so i also have the c10 how would you do this now? is there a different servo that fits better, or are there new servo trays i can get?

[@maximumrpm1868]

Pretty cool man I really love these little trucks will have to pick 1 up 1 day I really love these little trucks will have to pick 1 up 1 dayThey'd be great for the Winter when you're stuck inside or For quarantine hahaha

Yeh man. They are some good fun when ya can't get out.

[@bigpoppapaulsradiocontroll2724]

Lookin good Ben servo looks like God enough power snap that little rig in half 💪😂👍

[@BuyitBreakitFixit]

Hahaha, I think it probably could snap it in half. Had to get the video out for Reefs. Thanks brother

[@GBDiaz13]

Hey bro, thank you for this vid! I ended up installing this reefs using a 3D printed tray from shapeways. Only difference was I needed to mount the linkage from the back to the shoehorn on the servo. Quick question, when driving and turning, the car hops a bit (both left and right). And when completely stopped, I’ll turn all the way to the left and let off and it centers perfect. When turning to the right and letting off, it’ll flick back but stay a little to the right. Is this normal?

[@RCVHX22]

Very cool stuff my friend, nice job to my like👍

[@BuyitBreakitFixit]

Thanks my friend.

[@BuyitBreakitFixit]

I know. Haha I talked with Reefs before I did this. He said the same. Funny, servo is still going strong to this day

[@GeezerGramps]

Wouldn’t the Hot Racing mount for the Emax servo work better with the Reefs?

[@BuyitBreakitFixit]

That mount was not out when this video was made but yes, probably would work better.

[@jesuscarlos5178]

Thanks this really help .

[@BuyitBreakitFixit]

Glad it helped you out. Thanks for watching

[@Mikey45013]

What wheels and brass do you have in the front

[@BuyitBreakitFixit]

The wheels are rc4wd stamped beadlocks. The brass is from ebay. Search for scx24 brass overweights. I also have the brass hex. Thanks for watching and commenting.

[@GBDiaz13]

How did you trim the ears? Did you use a file or something? Maybe a dremel?

[@BuyitBreakitFixit]

Yep. Dremmel and one of the stones

[@DisasterRC]

Nice I am going to try a 4ws on mine just because I am me and that seems like something I would do 😂

[@BuyitBreakitFixit]

Awesome. Yep, that does seem like something I would see you posting up. Haha

[@HotWheelsandRC]

Man, I have had my SCX24 on back order for like 2 months!. I think its suppose to ship Jun.2. You must of bought yours right off the bat.

Does this servo come with a horn? Also is it pretty noisy?

It doew come with a horn and no it is pretty quiet. Very strong too.

[@trickdrifting]

Is you friend selling those stands? I'd buy 4 off the bat. I do not have a 3D printer. Thanks. Awesome vid and definitely that servo has all the power needed and then some.

[@BuyitBreakitFixit]

I don't think he is. Hmmm, maybe I design my own and get some out there...watch for a future video. Might just do that.

Not sure. I have contacted Reefs and am awaiting a reply. I will update you

[@BuyitBreakitFixit]

Ok, just heard back from reefs. He said the micro99 will work for the low/high servo and if you want to use it in the other spots(diff lock) spare time hobbies make a mount to do that. Hope that helps.

[@msrcracing8387]

@@BuyitBreakitFixit that's pretty cool. they will sell a ton if they hold up. The Traxxas Minis are garbage. On one of my TRX4s it gave me trouble from day one. The rear burnt up3x. I gave up on it.

Did you have to re locate the esc tray and esc to fit the reefs?

Nope. Just grind the servo mount at the rear.

This is an off topic question. What would you prefer. A 1/16 e revo vxl or a rustler 4x4 vxl?

[@rcsteve710_]

You can get an AGF micro servo that's basically the same as reefs. Half the price too. Makes me think they just bought rights to put their name on a Chinese servo 🤣

[@rcsteve710_]

I have a reefs 99 and an AGF micro in the scx24s and the AGF doesn't draw as much power as the Reefs and still same torque ✌️

[@BuyitBreakitFixit]

Not sure about rights. As I have said before, to each their own, I personally like Reefs Products and will always stick by them. Might not be the best option for everyone. Just sharing my experience with what I am doing with my rc.

[@99dedbuffoons17]

Which AGF micro servo you using?
