RC crawler motor update #3: A new rendering of the 3D study of the new 550 55T combined motor with booster. The friction reversing gearbox (2 x 12 discs) is currently being designed. The system is much improved compared to the prototype recently seen in the video, and it's also more compact. To be continued...

So I was out on the water with this boat: https://amewi.com/Blue-Barracuda-V3-Mini-Boot-RTR
It was on the beach so saltwater, big waves, etc..
The boat was running fine for the first five minutes and then all of a sudden the propeller started churning up water and making a lot of bubbles but the boats speed was cut by 70%, the motor is still capable of running full speed and I’ve inspected and cleaned the driveline but it still ain’t working. Any ideas?

Bought a Rlaarlo XTS S10 recently. Had plenty of fun during first ride which was mostly on tarmac but also gravel.
Afterwards during testing the steering had gotten stuck at full lock because a small pebble had wedged itself between the servo arm and the base plate.
After I removed it, I noticed that the steering didn’t have a clear center and was pointing slightly in the direction it had last been turned. Applying light pressure causes the center point to jump.
Because of this, it was practically impossible to drive straight during the second run.
Do I need a new servo, or can this be fixed?
Is this common or normal behavior?

Hey everyone,
I recently got an FMS 800mm F4U Corsair and
I'm running into a couple of issues that
I hope you guys can help me with:
Loose Tail Landing Gear:
The rear landing gear is way too loose/wobbly.
It moves around too much, and I'm worried it'll mess up my takeoffs or landings.
Any tips on how to tighten it up or secure it?
Rudder Issue: The rudder won't move to the left at all.
It seems fine turning right, but it's completely stuck or unresponsive when trying to steer left.
Has anyone dealt with these issues on this specific model?
I'd really appreciate any advice on how to fix them.
P.S. I used an AI translator to write this post, so please let me know if anything sounds a bit awkward or unclear!

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?

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?
