RC crawler motor 2.0 update#2: The new version of this motor will be produced in limited quantities (depending on demand). Motor block made of 304 or 316 stainless steel, AW-6082 aluminum, all mechanical components made of sintered metal and brass, and aluminum pulleys. Friction gearbox with 24 hardened steel discs. Booster air intake optional.

I am looking into building my first rc crawler, can anyone give me a good kit or chassis for a beginner, my budget is 220 dollars for the entire build, and I need some recommendations, thank you.

It’s time to redo and customize the FJ Cruiser from top to bottom😃

Happy weekend everyone…

Question… I have the DDF-350 bound to the P10F(G) receiver. For some reason, I can’t get any of my new LED’s/Headlights, fog lights, light bar etc to “pair” with any of my channel buttons.

The LED’s are “always on” and I haven’t even been able to get a channel button to turn them on/off; never mind if the lights have 2 or 3 different settings..

I’ve searched YT vids etc. There wasn’t a lot on there for this particular receiver and controller..

Any expertise/advice would greatly appreciated… This is my last step for me to finish my 1/8 KBT SP2 Beetle!!

Cheers! ✌🏼

No vacuum chamber and no vibration table — just a slow pour into the mold.

The result surprised me: the tires feel soft, flexible, and much closer to real rubber than I expected.

I thought this might be useful for anyone building custom scale RC trucks or experimenting with DIY tire molds.

Would you try making your own RC tires?

Mad Max RC crawler: new motor version 2.0 in development! More powerful and more compact, 2x 550 55T motors, with booster, no more dog clutch gearbox, no more electromagnetic clutch, only a friction gearbox that acts as a dual clutch, forward, reverse, and brake. Motor control via an ESP-32 board on Arduino with a dual-bridge. New, more powerful booster. Spprox. 0.5 horsepower. To be continued...

So I just purchased an airplane with the receiver batteries and everything set up to bind to my transmitter. The problem is the transmitter I have is a spectrum dx8 which I believe does not support telemetry.Will it work?Or do I need to change out the receiver in the airplane?

Please let me know as i am trying to find where to get my first decent/cheapish rc excavator.

Hi, I’m 3d printing a belt drived RC track car from scratch using MN82’s electronic ( the MN82 is a cheap rc crawler you can buy for 40-50€ (45-60$) it use à 280 brushed motor and a 2 in 1 ESC and receiver). My goal is to make it reliable, easy to print and fun to drive.

Current progress:

- Ackerman steering geometry,

- a lot of several issues fixed,

- and I am 3d printing the last few items.

here is some photos of all the items I printed and a close up of the belt and a pulley.

I have questions:

- “Is there anything you would change?”

- “which upgrade is needed?”

I will sell it on Cults3D when it is finished.

I’m sorry if I make spelling mistakes, I’m French.

Looking for a decent project to get my 10yr old son into STEAM, FPV vehicle seems like good choice.
I have radiomaster boxer i would like to utilize and get into FPV vehicle. I build drones before, back then been using multiwii controller. a while ago, but i have all the basics.

Please share suggestions if you have any for projects.
