Top notch video... you would be the only person I've ever noticed packing the spool carrier bearings.. solid instructions 👌

I run my trucks in wet conditions all the time, those bearings definitely last longer being packed!

Excellent video man! First one I’ve seen that mentioned greasing the bearings without a shield. Good call! Also nice to see some of the transmission assembly. Great work and I look forward to the next video. I have my kit but no electronics. Saving up so I can build everything at once. Those servos are calling me…I think it’s gonna be a Tekin beast when all is said and done!!

Great instructional build and tips. I always wondered if the non-shielded retainer bearings should be greased up.
@TekinRacing2 жыл бұрын
Personally I think they should be. I started doing it about a year ago since I drive in water and snow a lot.

Sounds like The ancient skill battery powered driver could use some grease in that old gearbox. That thing sounds absolutely terrible in my noise canceling headphones. 🤣 Love the content. 🤙

Great video. Is the 3100 motor too much for this crawler? What’s it like to crawl with the 3100?
@TekinRacing2 жыл бұрын
It's a great setup! The more motor revolutions you can get per tire revolution really increases low speed control. I am a big fan of more KV and gearing as low as possible, so I'll be gearing this truck with a 10T pinion.

Any body can be made to fit! You could easily put posts on the shock towers and mount just about any body you'd like to.

What is maximum motor can length that will fit into the VFD Twin?
@TekinRacing2 жыл бұрын
Same as the normal VFD. I know some 540L motors fit by removing the end cap on the motor or there is a motor plate out there someone makes that is thinner so the motor can be mounted further forward.
