Sorry about the codes. I didn't realize that they are promotional for my email because of a new account. My mistake here. I didn't see it until checkout.

Your going to get alot of negative comments truth is all escs and motors can and will blow up that being said if the Novak works it will run good IM running a havok pro sc and 6.5 62 t spur and a 15 t pinion hits about 110 on the motor and 106 on esc if it powers up and runs you should love it

nice gains!! im headed to the tenth scale nats in a few weeks and since i dont have any indoor clay experience this is good info! on my truck i drilled the front compression piston out to 1.2mm (from 1.1) and went to 30wt and it feels good, i think 27.5 may be better though! where do you have your shocks mounted? stick or saddles? i also like the feeling of the lighter saddles compared the tall heavy ones, just seemed to have too much weight on the front.

Those tires appear to be very flat-spotted.

I would guess your wheel/tires need balancing. Rotating unbalanced mass will cause shaking.

Maybe a tire is out of balance. That happened to me.

finished the build of my truck today. Builds nicley. But a few questions. The servo saver on the very top seems to be rubbing a little. Second, the drive train seems kind of tight. porb will free up when I get to run it. Third, I put a 1015 xp for the servo. The wire isnt long enough to reach the radio box? Would have thought they would have designed the truck around there own servos? I know I can get a extension but Im mean come on its like 2 inches to short. No pun intended lol.

It's the steering rack rubbing on the bottom of the belt cover. You can dremel clearance.

Second, the drive train seems kind of tight. porb will free up when I get to run it.
Likely, run a couple of batteries through it and recheck.

Needs an extension wire. Did you read the very first two or three posts on this thread? CraigV has that (and most other issues) stickied there.

hey rchoi ,

when storing your truck pull the tires off or better yet keep it elevalted on a stand with tires off. This will prevent the flat spot out of balance tire shake that you have in the vidieo.This also slows down the eventual bowing of the arms also.
