RGT EX86100 Pro V2 No Electronics RC Upgrades - Can We Make It Crawl?

[@papalel]

I bought one but gave it to a friend. Mine came with metal wheels hexes. Had to loctite all the metal to metal screws or it will come loose over time. I had the same problem with the rear bumper mount too. I just made holes on both sides the plastic bumper mount and used grub screws since there is not enough space to put normal screws in. You will notice that there are holes near the screws on the rails.

Interesting that your bumper was like that as well, thought mine was just a one off. For sure on the screws, when I checked the diffs for grease the hexes came out really easily.

[@CHALNGR]

Really informative, many thanks for that 👍🏻 The chassis is very interesting. Will there be more videos? Greetings from Germany. 🤗

[@YARCWest]

Thanks for checking it out! There will likely be more videos on it, I managed to damage the gear box, there is a photo up in the Community section. I believe it was a caused by how large the gear box is and also having the brushless motor. It got stuck and just kept pushing it and managed to pop the c-clamp of the drive shaft off, which caused me to strip a few teeth in the spur gear and well a create a hole in the great box. I have a smaller replacement but haven't had time to install it yet.

It looks good wide 😊

[@YARCWest]

Yeah so far I think so, we’ll see how well it holds up over time

👍

[@DrBwacko]

did you put grease on the pinion and spur gear?

[@YARCWest]

I put a tiny tiny bit on there since it’s an enclosed case. I know that the consensus in the community is to not grease the pinion and spur gear but when ever I open up an rtr, there always seems to be a little bit of grease in there.

[@DrBwacko]

@@YARCWest I've been in RC since the late 80s and that's a first time I've seen that

[@YARCWest]

Yeah, probably shouldn't have done it then.
