Traxxas Spartan step by step trim adjustments with RC Boat Bitz kit

[@scotts5193]

I have had my spartan for a couple years now and I have never been able to drive at full throttle without blowing over. Thank you for making these videos they have been very helpful.

[@RCBoatBitz]

Thankyou for the comment sir. I have to admit its harder to get right than i expected!

[@kenseigler5605]

I can't wait I just ordered your kit for my Spartan SR looks like you make great parts I've only heard nothing but good things about RCBB

[@kenseigler5605]

Can't wait for my parts ABSOLUTELY STOKED

[@jaycevessier7554]

I just figured out that right trim tan being lower last boating season. Try running your turn fins like mid ways between all the way down and up. Mine seems to really like that

[@RCBoatBitz]

Yeah the right tab being lower has always been the key to these because of the deep V hull. I was more trying to replicate the steps someone might take after fitting the kit to get it trimmed, rather than changing everything at once. I will back those fins off next time and see what its like

@@RCBoatBitz are you going to push it and see what top speed you can achieve?

@@jaycevessier7554 i do intend to instal our 40mm motor/ 175a combo, but only really to search for the most suitable prop, finding out how fast a plastic boat can go doesnt interest me at all

@@RCBoatBitz with a 4082 motor and 180esc best prop I’ve found is a 44x1.4, anything bigger it gets unstable.

@@jaycevessier7554 our kit comes with a 4092 1650kv, sounds like your motor is more like a 2000

[@Linoge279]

You may need to reposition the battery forward a bit which might helps, just a suggestion and by the way awesome fast boat!

[@RCBoatBitz]

Theyre all the way forward in their trays, could add some weight in front for a simple fix but thats not what the video was about

[@joshengland5251]

I have the m41,and did all the aluminum upgrades,maybe u can find one and do some,,ever done any rescue boat builds?? How about any boat trailor builds?? Thats what i pove making is the trailors

[@RCBoatBitz]

I stripped my m41 and fitted twin jets, i never actually liked it much, super stable but not fast no matter how much power i threw at it. I have a rescue boat build on here, stripped out an old bait boat and installed a jet pump and it runs off an 18v ryobi power tool battery pack

[@kenseigler5605]

Was wondering if you guys are going to put out a 3/16 shaft for the spartan sr

[@RCBoatBitz]

As soon as the sr becomes available to buy here we will be doing that

[@mrosapl106]

Can you adjust the same way all stock eq? (Only adding this traxxas trim adjusters for $20)

[@RCBoatBitz]

Its a waste of time, the stock parts are too small as we showed in a previous video

[@mrosapl106]

@@RCBoatBitz what isthe name of the kit?

[@RCBoatBitz]

@@mrosapl106 heres the link rcboatbitz.com/product/complete-hardware-upgrade-suit-spartan-red-tr-07r/ its our basic kit but i did the 3/16" upgrade instead of just fitting the upgrade stinger. we have a premium kit that gets you double trim tabs and the shaft upgrade too

[@chriscargill8140]

What batteries you running????

[@BuddahGump74]

2 3s

[@petergoodwin2465]

Great video again Joe, i may try this with the old thunder tiger Atlantic i put on 6s. That thing is out of control, leans so bad in the turns ,chime walks and just about anything else thats bad it does it ha,ha, was never supposed to run on 6s thats for sure. Funny when it turns and its almost on its side . Batteries are 2x3s 5000. Way to heavy . Will keep trying ha,ha,

[@RCBoatBitz]

You may have simply overpowered the hull and may never get it right
