True.Idk if it technically counts as hijacking as we are adding and discussing the differences in escs and stuff lol.

If the max8 is a night and day difference and requires a smaller pinion to tame it down, I assume the mamba monster would be the same way? Perhaps an esc would give me what I am looking for without a motor upgrade?
I'm pretty sure I left the punch on the factory setting on the Max8 as well, with the BLX185 I had it cranked up to 9. But like Peenut explained this is probably more do to the limited functionality of the BLX185 compared to the Max8.If the max8 is a night and day difference and requires a smaller pinion to tame it down, I assume the mamba monster would be the same way?

Likewise.. I have my BLX185 set to punch 9. I may have unrealistic expectations after watching a ton of duperbash's videos. But I feel like the kraton is lacking power compared to my what I thought it would do in my head...
Honestly I think the mamba monster might be too much right now. Just go max8, it'll be enough trust me!If the max8 is a night and day difference and requires a smaller pinion to tame it down, I assume the mamba monster would be the same way?

Nice, now to wait on the slow boat.Thank you everyone! I really appreciate all the advice!??

I did set my endpoints first thing before I even put power to the wheels. Maybe I didn't do it quite right though. I think I did but I am not 100% I couldn't wait and ordered the savox sw-1210sg. It will be here Thursday. Looks like I wont need the bec or glitch buster with the max8! Good deal. Thank you Peeeenuuutt!No harm in trying. Make sure to set your endpoints (dual rate) this time so it doesn’t go out like the last one.
I have a jx 20kg servo in my rigs pretty sure they're the same type and that thing has been reliable i beat on it daily and it just keeps going has alot more power than stock to and its only 15$Will do! I might have jumped the gun on the max8. Pretty sure my steering servo went out on me today Lol. Any chance I wont need a glitch buster or bec when I get the max8? Also any chance a 20kg lewansoul servo for $16 will get me by until I get a savox? I have an extra one on my rock crawler... lol
Well my savox sw1210 is going to be here today. It is a 6v servo. I am still using the factory blx185. What did you mean by bypassing the RX? Did I not have to take the reciever box off the truck? Lol changed my front diff fluid too... couldn't use 2 planetary shims like Thomas P does. Hope its together right lolNo problemo. Yeah the most common thing people do wrong is a few things with dual rates.
After a hard crash you’ll probably have to redo it, and as temps change you’ll have to redo it.
Also make sure that you find which way the truck has the least amount of turning and set the dual rates on that side. You probably won’t need a BEC, but if that servo is a 7.4v one, you will. I’ll need to do a tutorial with you on how to bypass the receiver when we get to that bridge.
