Basic R/C Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

[@Giomasternica]

Bought my first Slash couple months ago. It really clears my mind work on him. Run it, fix it, make upgrades. This is the best hobbie ever.

[@SOBaseball]

I’ve been in RC probably 2x Brett’s age. I called all the big names tonight, either got hung up on, sent into an endless robot loop, or some other bs. Amain….picked up the phone. I normally price hunt and waste all kinds of time on little things, but these guys spent all the time I wanted talking to me. I’ve ordered lots of stuff from them throughout the years, but they just earned a hard core RC’er’s business for good. 5* awesome business!

[@TranceFur]

Yeah, Amain is a very solid company. Never had a single problem with them after several years of orders.

[@jeanst-amour9621]

Great video! Another important thing to do is set the steering end points; not doing so burns out your servo. I like your comment about not using a compressor; back in my mountain bike racing days we avoided cleaning our bikes with a compressor as it can cram dirt into the bearings or other places that you don't want it...

Also if you put upgraded servos, Snapped a capra axle in half by not setting end points.

Great tips! I believe compressed air can be used only try to avoid the fans

[@drunkinmaster1]

All good information. Another tip that is a must. Look through your manual and read up on the maintenance intervals. Rc cars need regular servicing just like your real cars do. Diff fluids need to be replaced after so many runs so keep track of that. Also, be careful with lipo charging. Get yourself either a lipo bag or some flame proof container like an ammo can. Dont let your house catch on fire. And i wouldn’t recommend charging inside

[@DavidNaritaYT]

This is age old common sense, but it is good practice to at least clean your r/c at the end of your session. I just picked up my first r/c in 10 years, and everything I use to do stayed with me. Consider I bought a used vehicle. If I didn't tear down the entire vehicle and regressed and lube all the mechanical components including suspension I wouldn't know what would happen the first time I take it out for a proper session. Considering I'm jumping huge dirt jumps I definitely needed to rebuild the entire vehicle. And because I did I had a great time with my kids out at the trails! Maintenance is key!

Hello Brett, you are an amazing person. Love your tips and tricks. love the way you talk about the hobby. it is great. but I have to disagree with you on the li-po batteries. I have dealt with them since they came out on the market so many long years ago. They were interesting to deal with. whole new way to handle and store and how to store. we learned the best way was to store at full charge. as we also pu8t them in the fridge and or the freezer. in so areas just open storing is bad as the heat gets to them makes the packs swell. and you can not use them any more. so you put them in the fridge or freezer keeps them safe and bring them out leave them 20 mins no issue full charge. some times if i need the with in a few mins. i put a top off charge on them. warms them up and i get full usage. I have been doing this since the late 90's early 2000 till now. not a once have i ever had an issue like you describe. if any thing i have been able to keep them longer. i have pack that are well over 10 years. and have a lot of use on them. still as strong as the day i got them and charged. if you like to meet up some time and see them. that be awesome. just let me know. but your info oin storing is wrong though. thank you have a great fun running chasing time with our favorite hobby.

How do go about this

[@johnspiteri6807]

@@vexx12343 You can remove the glow plug check piston is at bottom of the stroke. Mark the flywheel with a marker pen or scrib flywheel . I usually do it at the bottom so when you look under the car you can see the mark easily in the correct position . Once done put the glo plug back in . Every time you stop check the mark is in the same position to cool down.

[@thatonebeone]

Worse mistake is not having a big juicy burrito after doing hard of fun RC 🌯🤤

[@Traxxbandit]

Het Bret awesome info. But three things First thing is let Batteries cool Down, second thing always have extra Batteries with you. gives more time out and more fun for running. the third thing is check the battery for damage. this will save you a lot of issues. if they are damaged get new ones. Now this last thing i been doing this the r/c hobby for a long time. But for the last 15 plus years i charge my li-pos at full capacity and put them in the freezer. some i have had over 10 years or better some a little less old. but never have i had any issues with them. in fact a large group of us do it as well. At our lhs they do the same thing. I am down in the desert area where 115 is not uncommon to see. If you have heard of Ridgecrest then you know where we are. So keeping a cold battery is common. when we get them out. we let them sit for 20 mins to an hr. but usually by the time we get to the track or bashing spot the batteries are at temp. and pack as much of a punch as they usually do. the last thought i have for others. always make sure you clean the dust out. clean it good. we have a very dry dusty area. and micro rock and other sizes they get up inside and really do some damage to the insides of the r/c. I got a brand new truck every thing sealed. fun 1/6 scale truggy fun enjoyable. Maiden run today. I had so many tiny little rocks took me a while to get them all out. so i disconnected the fans took them out and blew the heck out of every thing. just as i thought i was done a few more would drop out so i hit it again. got it nice and cleaned out. but little tiny rocks are a real pain. so make sure you clean well. Thanks Brett love the tid bits

[@tjjones-xj7kq]

Protip I learned as a teen. Trucks with the fake roll cage in the bed of the truck behind the cab work great for holding bottle rockets. I would just lean them forward over the cab and could aim them and drive it away before they would go. Black cat is the only brand to mess with at least back then. That was a store brand RC truck with a removable 4 AA battery pack. I loved that truck! We beat the crap out of it and it held up well. We even would drive it down the wood stairs lolol. Disclaimer: This is strictly for adults who have the proper permit to use bottle rockets. Always follow local laws. This can be very dangerous.

I'm 5 cars deep now and some are cheap-ish, but really just need minor upgrades. The most expensive one is the most fragile, ironically.

[@chasebarton5071]

Awesome advice! I will add- don’t drive or fly your model near yourself or any other person or property. These things are not toys! They are downsized remotely controlled models of the real thing and they can and will hurt you in the same manner as the real full-size thing! This should be the first lesson/video a kid hears before being turned loose with a RC car/truck. Definitely rules to live by in all things RC. RC Aircraft need way more training but the same rules apply. The second thing should be etiquette. Follow the rules to the T and if you mess up fess up! I started out at around 11 or 12 years old learning how to fly RC planes. I had a really good teacher that taught me the basics and the dangers of the RC hobby world. I’m a back woods flyer/driver so I’ve never had to worry about busting through the neighbors window but there were times that I would have had to worry when I was starting out. After 30 years of “playing” with these models I can definitely say be carful and keep yourself safe. Don’t let it bite you because it will if you give it the chance. It’s fun. It’s expensive if you’re not a good pilot/driver or builder. But it’s fun so keep building!

[@mase9975]

RPM plastics will bend but most of time not break and brushless power systems have longer run time. You could upgrade the bearings to sealed bearings "fast eddies bearings" are awesome. Metal axles are great, MIP, HotRacing to name a few or if the brand of rc you bought has upgrades buy those cause it takes out the guess/research work to find what works and what does not. You could do none of that and just buy extra stock parts and just have fun. Almost forgot, you can buy a screw kit which changes all screws to the hex-head or "allan-head" screws that are waterproof.

John, are you sure you're using a LiPo battery? The most basic battery & charger included with Traxxas vehicles are NiMH batteries, not LiPo. NiMH batteries are a bit easier to manage and require no additional storage charging like a LiPo. Instead, charge the NiMH battery when you want to play, and use it in the truck until the battery is dead. If you're done driving, leave the battery in this "dead" state (NiMH's are very happy here). When you're ready to drive again, just charge the battery and use it... that's it. LiPo's are different in that after driving, they should not be left in the "dead" state. Hope this helps, and please figure out what battery type you're using... -Brett

The front diff case seems very lose I've tried everything I opened up 5 times now but each time I pop it back is lose again when the car on the ground the back wheels spin around. But front wheels don't move or go around. So not sure what's going on any help would be fantastic cheers 😅😅😊

I got 2 "Hoovo" 3s 5200 lipos on amzn... I know I know. They wont charge ... Idst 608ac is fine with all other lipos . whats the problem ????

Maybe their voltage is too low to initiate the charge? Most current chargers will not start the charge process if any of the cells in a LiPo are below 3V per cell. Do you have a cell checker you could connect to the batteries? -Brett
