First off I just want to say your channel is amazing, I truly appreciate how ur not afraid to try things most RC lovers aren’t willing to do (swapping/trying other parts) your creativity and just being able to visualize the process and your final product. Its Truly a “ArtForm”..: keep inspiring others, u have an amazing gift , thank u for all u do brother ..all that said I love this truck so much, what servo upgrade would u recommend? Working on my rebuild right now !!

[@DerbyCityRC]

Thanks dude I really appreciate that so much!!! I have not actually done a servo upgrade on this yet lol. I just need to measure it and see what I can find within those measurements. Let me know if you find one!

[@hondashadowfrontcaliperrebuild]

bought this last week when it went on sale, absolutely loving it so far. fast with a 2s but throw and 3s in there and its pure chaos! I've been really mean to mine and its still holding up like a champ!

4s is even better.🤣. Granted, you need a different ESC….

[@hondashadowfrontcaliperrebuild]

@@BriansRCStuff I saw your comment and got excited because I thought maybe this thing could run 4s! What esc do you recommend to get to 4s?

@@hondashadowfrontcaliperrebuild sorry man! Didn’t mean to do that to you.😁 I’m not near a computer right now so this is tedious to post the link but in this video in the video description there is a link to the ZTW 2s to 4s 120A ESC. About $40 and I used it in my Traxxas Bandit to over 100 mph! It is a tight fit, but it just fits in the truck. kzbin.info/www/bejne/qmnHaXqdrJyYqJYsi=gD5LlPZvRtchI1tm

[@brandjayfab]

Excellent video! Love the channel and truck. I got an Anycubic Vyper 3d printer about a year ago and it has completely changed how I RC. I can't recommend enough that you learn. I've been rc'ing for near 30 years now. I started with tinkercad to design parts which you can learn in about an hour, and have moved on to fusion 360 and solid works. I can now think of a part I need, design it, print it, and test it out in about an hour in most cases. Total game changer. Keep up the good work!

[@DerbyCityRC]

Thanks!! That’s so cool lol. Gotta get one soon!

[@nickhathaway4617]

​@@DerbyCityRC one thing you didn't mention how was the temp with the hobbywing setup

[@wallacebates6454]

If u do not mind me asking what does the printer I kinda new to RC. Pick up as a hobby for old man 70 Buddy in the motor city as been at it for years. I in Vegas. He’s in Detroit. I just wanna know guy. Please

[@brandjayfab]

@DerbyCityRC just today I made a part to put a 16890a wheelie bar on my emb-mt, and made a new larger esc holder for my hb14m

[@DerbyCityRC]

Good point! I didn’t do much running in grass, but I don’t recall any temp issues. I’ve used this combo on a few different cars now and have never had a temp problem. It also has a temp cutoff for the motor and esc. It’s set to the lowest of the heat temps and it never cut off. In thick grass and a hot day, it would probably get somewhat warm. On the stock motor, I just happened to touch it by accident and I noticed how hot it was, so I didn’t think to feel it afterwards with the Hobbywing.

[@michaeldorich4485]

I enjoyed the video. It's amazing the car survived at all with those very hard landings on the parking lot. I thought the fact that there was little or diff grease or oil in the diffs should tell people to check those out in almost any inexpensive rtr.

[@DerbyCityRC]

Thanks! Yup, really even the high end brands need the diffs checked. Almost always too low if there’s any at all. Crazy. I was atleast expecting a tiny bit of grease like there was in the front and rear lol

[@gothbricks2000]

This is the vid I was waiting for! I love my 2997a, but wish I was as adventurous/capable as you for mods like this. At the very least, I've also considered swapping the shocks for something less bouncy.

[@DerbyCityRC]

Glad you liked it! You never know, you might be able to make it happen. Could play the video on super ultra slow mode and follow along lol. The shocks alone would help a lot! I don’t know what weight comes in the Omni shocks, which would be helpful, but maybe 20k-30k weight less thick than what’s in them would probably do the trick.

[@hilariociooos]

Great video! Would like to swap my motor too. Maybe you can do a motor installation video?

This is the exact build I'm working on. I've only the wheels and shocks left to upgrade. Looks like my reluctance to buy the parts is now gone as it appears to improve things massively. Ace video as always. Thanks!

[@daveeltringham8695]

Only question I have is; do those wheels balloon at all? I've had to resort to stock wheels that suck, but do track straight.

[@DerbyCityRC]

Thanks!! I think you’ll be happy!

[@DerbyCityRC]

I didn’t notice much ballooning. Wasn’t really looking for it but of course you typically will notice especially with high speed and backflips. Only time I noticed it was during the long wheelies since it has the center diff, it puts much more speed into the front axle during wheelies

Love the content, picked up a HBX 2997a as my first RC car. I was wondering what usually breaks first so I might have spare parts on hand. I know you did some pretty awesome upgrades; I was curious if any other RC cars part would fit up to this truck.

[@stefanosk80]

I can't wait for the Omni Terminator upgrades! I have done some radical changes to mine and it is a blast!

[@DerbyCityRC]

Me too! Should be arriving soon! 😃

[@BriansRCStuff]

Awesome video! As always. Massive air! 😂 With a bigger 3s battery mine went 45+ mph stock (42 with a low performance LIPO that fit in the stock tray) and 60 mph on the stock motor running the 2 stock 2s LIPOs in series. It is a HANDFULL at 60 mph on the stock tires! That stock F540 motor can be pretty quick! On a XTeam 3650 5400kv it hit 43 on 2s and 61 on 3S and 65 mph before dying violently on 4s but it was not happy spinning that fast to say the least! My runs were in a really big open area though with pre warmed LIPOs.

[@DerbyCityRC]

Ya your runs were pretty sweet! Doesn’t handle those speeds well I’m sure lol I need a better speed location. Not easy to come by around here.

[@larrystange]

I'm loving mine.. although I wish the wing wouldn't have ripped off first time out! That truck looks way more cool with the wing than without. It could definitely use a shock upgrade, though, over stock. Or maybe just different fluid? I did same as you with the diffs, too; just packed in some grease, which seems to help. Great video!

[@DerbyCityRC]

Yes looks much better with a wing. I’m surprised mine stayed on lol. Ya these shocks are better and more durable too! The stock shocks could use a bit thicker fluid, these need a bit thinner.

[@RC-Closer1313]

Damn bro, that thing is all sorts of bad ass now!! Great video for sure and you freakin nailed the triple diple on the first try… nice! Them Rlaarlo shocks are real cush. Made that little truck float nicer… from what I saw.

[@DerbyCityRC]

Thanks dude! Ya it’s a monster! Yes these shocks are an improvement over stock, but still could use slightly thinner fluid since it’s lighter weight than the Omni.

It's got a cheaper 3650 4300kv motor and it tends to overheat on 3s so I put a fan on it but still might change it to a 3900kv or something better. Next step is the servo 😉. Thanks again for the awesome content!

Nice triple backflip and you made some distance on the stairs gap! The 2997a is starting to look pretty attractive! Glad to see the terminator isn't the only one (at this 10-12th scale) that has dogbone pin breakage. We terminator bros may need your help for solving our diffcup/axle issue. People are wrecking cvd's, dogbone pins, and diffcups wayy more than they're accustomed to. One guy mounted some Traxxas telescopic axles to completely bypass those issues. He had to deepen the bearing seat inside the hub, to allow for that mod... so I (and i bet, others) wonder if arrma may have 'compatible' axles in terms of hub/bearing spacing and size. Would you be in a position to explore that? 🤔

[@DerbyCityRC]

Thanks! Yes I love this truck! I have several of the rlaarlo upgrade parts coming for a build on that too. I would think those parts would solve this issue but maybe not? I’ll hopefully be able to take a look at some alternatives. My only real option I have is the Arrma 3s axles lol

[@insanebmxthomas]

@@ConiferD my excuse in advance for this rant. I've had droop since day 1. But i don't want to lower it to where it's basically a roadcar. I have the suspension set up for stunting, which is what the car is advertised and built to do. I don't believe the problem is solved, because Rlaarlo has said they're revising *even* the S2 parts. And they're still experimenting with hardness of their parts. This is all straight from the horse's mouth. Even if it was solely due to droop (which i doubt), it's something that the company should have tested for and addressed before they started shipping the car out. To now simply say it's our fault for using self righting as some users suggest (again, advertised, plus, plenty of users with worn diffcups dont use self righting at all) and that, for using the car as advertised (on stock power) we need upgraded parts... yeah no, that's not how you treat customers. *If* they did any inhouse testing, they would proudly show us the difference between droop/no droop and s2 parts/no s2 parts. It's not hard to setup a test bench for that. -They only reply to customers who strongly critique them, or when they want to use their media -People are still ripping pins out of their S2 dogbones/cvds, just like i have on the first pack, but no word from Rlaarlo or Edison (or warranty). So in conclusion, I'm going the telescopic axle route. They don't act like they deserve my money. I'm not sweating the 80 bucks in dogbones/cvds/diffcups, but if the standard cvd's EAT the s2 diffcups (as evidenced by users), i highly doubt it's going to perform much better. If it's the droop, i don't need either part, then the car needs different axles. At least in my mind that's how it works. Now, having to wait for youtubers like Derby City RC to test those s2 parts, adds insult to injury. Rlaarlo should have shipped out some s2 kits to youtubers so they can show us what they're like. Wonder why they didn't but i have a feeling. Thanks @derby city RC for keeping us entertained, interested and engaged! And for taking the monetary hit, showing us what none of us have seen so far; the s2 parts performance.

[@DerbyCityRC]

Yup those cups should have been a harder metal. Like you said they apparently made a running change to the hardnesses. Most of my parts came but I have so many videos in the works I don’t know for sure when it will be done but Im pretty stoked about it so as soon as possible!

It helps delegate power between front and rear axles. Moves the power to where there is least resistance which helps the car stay better planted on the ground and helps lower shock to the drivetrain for durability. Yes I did! Always looking for more!

Some people already have this car. It ships quicker if Amazon doesn’t have the Omni in stock. It’s also usually cheaper with its sale price. Some people may prefer the way it looks. 😃

Pretty sure HBX RCs are made out of chuck Norris

😅

[@DerbyCityRC]

You’re correct! HBX follows Chuck around and picks up the muscle that he sheds so new bigger muscle can grow in its place.
