Sick video...Sweet seeing the Ryft contrasted w/other possible 'like' vehicles
@jbrc13223 жыл бұрын
Nice comparison video. I tried the 3800 slate in the bomber and felt it struggled quite a bit on the bottom and mid range especially. It also kicked the fan on in mamba x frequently (probably due to high amp draw for under powered motor). I then swapped in a tekin 2300 HD. The tekin has heaps more torque and power in low, mid and high range vs the slate. Geared up to 14-16t pinion on 4s is sweet spot and haven't heard the esc fan kick on once. Transformed the bomber for me. Highly recommend a longer motor.

Some of the best content out here for the Ryfts! I love mine straight out of the box but seeing the mods you’ve done to yours makes me want to tear into it. Was wondering how does the new motor and castle compare to the stock setup? Is it slower or quicker, I definitely notice better low end control! By the way is it possible to get rid of some of the roll back when climbing on the stock setup? Could really use some advice! Thanks ahead of time, loving the content!

Finally got 2 spools for the ryft. Started taking the diffs apart last night and giving them a really good look and in each at least 1 gear's teeth was completely sheared off. Hopefully I'll be able to piece together 1 good diff out of the 3 to use in the front today. Spooling the center and the rear without a sway bar (yet, got a makeshift one coming) might be a bit much but we'll see. For context I've only run the ryft about 6 times and only ever on 3s. Haven't ran it rough enough to break anything, it's just rolled down a 15 foot hill a few times. They really didn't beef it up enough to handle 4s. Yours though? All those vitavon parts 👍
@cathodd24423 жыл бұрын
Update: spooling the center and rear actually helped with the torque twist some. So far I'm happy with the results but I havent ran it much yet. Just some quick tests on grass and cement. I just hope that front diff holds up. I don't want to have to lock it as well.

Agree, My passion is Rock Bouncers. This Ryft, awesome as it is, the power curve and wheel speeds appear to limit its ability to move over terrain in a realistic scale rock bouncing way.

I have bothe the Bomber and the Ryft. I love them both but I find myself always favoring the bomber. The ryft easily has twice as much money into it as the bomber and it doesn't do much more. Both have the copperhead and castle combos. Bomber is 3800kv and the ryft is 1900kv. Both have the baja pro x tires. The only advantage the ryft has is about an inch longer wheelbase. As for the flex, the bomber has the soft swaybar installed and the ryft has no sway bars but they are both fairly even with the ryft getting about 3/4 of an inch more but with sway bar removed the bomber out matches the ryft on flex.
