    I'm sorry I forgot to take pictures

    I sold my Amp and Ruckus before remembering to take pictures of how to fix the most annoying flaw of ECX cars, the bottom hub screw that keeps unscrewing itself. Basically, using a Dremel, I drilled a hole to be able to do like on that picture and use a grub screw (like the tkr1601 shown...

    Improvise. Adapt. Overcome.

    I'll report on durability but I hope the metal against metal causes less issues than the stock plastic metal contact when it comes to the damn thing unscrewing itself.

    Improvise. Adapt. Overcome.

    So to overcome a shortage of parts, I had to improvise and make do with what was lying around. This is how you adapt servo parts to make ECX steering great again using any screw and not only these GGDF*$dg$D*RE*E*gggfdgdf***fdgfdg******* that always unscrew themselves and get lost.

    Horizon discontinuing online sales of ECX

    Pretty sure LHS will still be allowed to sell through their websites, and that this doesn't apply to Europe

    Horizon discontinuing online sales of ECX

    Their website says in stores only and Amain has everything "discontinued". What the hell?

    How do I know if I have AVC?

    Should be obvious when you dangle the car in the air, it should steer by itself, if the steering rate is not on zero.

    Swapping the rear a-arms?

    https://www.ecxforum.com/media/20180306_120551.383/ Can someone tell me what this does? I see what it would look like afterward, but what does it achieve? Thanks!

    AMP MT 2.4 (60 mm) Wheels?

    There are much smaller than the stock rims / wheels though. Why not put ST tires on the stock rims?

    broke driveshaft on 2wd torment

    The "rc" model or the "x06"? I broke the x06 pretty quickly but the rc seem to keep going.

    amp tire size??

    This looks perfect, there are so little 2.8 stadium truck tires that are not ridiculous bashing tires, 2.2's would be better. Only I couldn't find rims that fit, so it's good to know that these tires fit the stock rim.

    My Amp upgrades

    Unless it's significantly more expensive I'd get the Spektrum dx5c. Waterproof Rx, large lcd display with scrollwheel menu, 6 (or 5, not sure) channels instead of 2 on the Traxxas 6509r...

    My Amp upgrades

    Hobbyking previous gyro was crap and so was the drift remote , I have one. It also does not control throttle, only steering. No idea about the new one.

    Nice Affordable Brushless Combo (Amp)

    I bought a similar combo for my Amp since 3300kV is what the Ruckus 2WD BL comes from and it is absurdly powerful/fast. It's a 4 pole motor and even with a 24t pinion on it it'll flip the Amp on its roof if there's any kind of grip. It'll wheelie on demand at pretty much any speed. I had to tone...

    traxxas style bead?

    Traxxas style: https://www.prolineracing.com/images/products/secondary/2733-03-2.jpg Classic style: https://www.prolineracing.com/images/products/secondary/2737-03-2.jpg Supposedly Traxxas style provides more surface to glue the tire. In practice it's not important.
