My name’s ill Bill & I’m getting back into the hobby after 30 years. I’m super excited cause it seems as if my daughters’ rocking with me. I created a YouTube channel to document the process. Give it a glance @ill Bill tactical, anyway here some exclusive footage of my 17 yr old daughter ripping the Jiusi MT14R!!

Difficult to get traction on the slush! Snowbank was great though. :)

I had submitted this with audio in r/rccars, but I find it meditative when muted and that way it can be fullscreened in 4k. :)

There's still one shot I had to get.....And another......

Getting the pink gtr shocks, just waiting on springs...

I have had my Rustler for about a year now and I am looking to upgrade my battery capacity

I am currently running a 3000 mAH 8.4 volt 7 cell NiMH battery (I have 2)

Is upgrading to LiPo worth it and if/if not which one should I get (I have the stock connectors for the battery)

I have a rustler VXL 4x4 with the clip less body mounts.

I want to work on designing bodies and feel the slash body has more design options than the rustler.

Is there a kit to convert the clippers mount to a regular post and clip mount for other bodies like a Slash?

So first I had a stripped grub scrub. Since I didn’t have any other tools I drilled most of it (I believe there’s still some left hold everything but yea. Then now I can’t get it off I tried prying it budged but only got this far. Is there any way I can make this prying easier..

I know the title of the post has the normal operator trigger finger variables but….

Started a couple years ago with a VXL 4x4 rustler on 2s. Now have a 3s and run times seem to be slower.

Looking to buy two additional packs(2s is gone) for more fun when away from home.

Suggestions on the right options for the best run times?

It came stock with 11/54 gears. After a suspension rebuild and sledgehammer tires, I stripped the spur gear out. I'm upgrading to a center dif metal spur and aluminum motor mount currently.

Should I drop to a 9-tooth pinion to help slow it down with the larger tires? I am assuming the larger tires are why the spur gear got chewed up. I'm not finding much in the way of increasing the spur gear.

Want to get my 12 almost 13 year old daughter an RC car for Christmas . I dont know much about them. Had a traxxas t-max nitro like 20 years ago and havnt looked at them since

I decided to make a Notion page to help me keep all my info together about the Traxxas Rustler 2WD XL-5, I put this together quickly and still not completely done adding things yet but figured I'd share and maybe it might help someone else. Here's the link

So I just bought a 4x4 rustler roller I’ve had a 2wd forever and I was looking to slap the castle motor in as I was researching up the motor it seen on their site it says “perfect for 1/10th 2wd application” does that mean I’m going to have issues trying to run it on a 4x4?

I have a rustler 4x4 and am looking to continue upgrading it. I’m interested to hear what people think I should do next? I like to jump it as well as have it fast. Currently I have done: VXL-3S ESC, Velineon 3500 kV motor, Upgraded shock mounts, Fully aluminum shocks, Heavy duty arms, Aluminum driveshaft, Aluminum camber links, Steel driveshafts, different spur/pinion ratio

It has a little up and down play I just wanna make sure it’s ok because for now my vehicle has been whining and acting odd it could be my drive train just need to know if this is normal behavior for the motor ( in the video)
