New Here, with the #1 Propulse

Lol, J/K fellas.

I see there is'nt to much action here, on the ProPulse forum but here is a PIC of mine.

Let me know what you think.

MODS:

AE Titanium Turnbuckles
Carbon fiber driveshaft
AE RC18T shocks, Aluminum Shocks ( Front )
Alum. Wheel adapters Mugen 1/10th scale wheels
RC18T Racing packs ( 1600 )
Traxxs E- Revo Receiver and transmitter
Losi RX 280 High Speed motor ( w/ hpi 13T pinion )
Losi LST body with carbon fiber spoiler
Deans all around


The trick to getting the LST body to fit, is using the B-100 rear mounts for the body.

Looks good, but you might want to resize the pics though.

Not a problem sorry about that, did'nt know they were that big.

Will fix that asap....

Also did some more upgrades.

This weekend I replaced the following..........

Front a-arms with AE RC18T arms, Front hubs with AE hubs, and the front dogbones with MIP CVD's along with the AE diff. So now the enitre front end is AERC18. ( alot easier to find parts for also )

Will post pics soon. I must say even with just CVD's int he front, man what a difference. Would have went all around BUT Hobby town did'nt have two sets.

Hey thanks for the kind words man.........I did resize the pics down to 1280x960 but if you want them smaller, then yes resize away.


Well last night I wanted to change out the rear end and try the AERC18 rear diffs and dogbones ( to make sure the alum will fit before ordering ) and everything seems ok, looks good and tight but when i take off, I can hear the diff slipping. It spins up fast then takes off.

The diff feels tight, when i test each wheel, they all pull hard, but when on all fours, it slips.

Have no idea what's going on, might have to change out the hubs and arms to. We'll see.

The mesh is good, That's the first thing i checked.


I think the dogbone is coming out of the hub, I could be wrong but that's what it seems like.


If I ease into it, it's fine, but WOT throttle I can hear it slip. Might have to double on the spings to get it to, push the dogbone into the hub more.

Another tip that you might want to check are the input shafts on the driveshaft.
