THis was a very helpful video for rebuilding my diffs on the DBXL..thanks brother

OMG finally I've been waiting for someone to start producing these this is just a miniature version of a CV joint on a full size that is the coolest thing I have seen in the rc industry 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥👍👍👍👍

The Energy ⚡ of this channel is just epic and always my first watch when I get into the shed and am looking to start the day 🌄💯🤘

Thank you buddy

What a great channel and content. As someone looking to pick up a DBXL I appreciate these videos and all the commentary.

Still my favourite car , now even better 👍👌👍

Another great video. You give me lots of ideas for modifying my DBXL-E 2.0

"time to odder butter these balls" 😳

LOL one hand wasn't enough!!

Originally, 20+ years ago, GS Storm 8th scale buggies, u used the diff cup set screw to completely lock the diff gears up by turning the setscrew IN. Easy 'tuning secret' on hi bite clay tracks. Thank goodness technology changed, for the better!

Awesome video buddy thanks

I taped my badlands with kevlar ( yes a bit extreme 😜 ) with Pattex ( shoegoo is better but more difficult to apply) the inner side of the tires and ZERO balooning over 70mph, zero, last think to keep everything together and go over 70 is balancing the wheels… a clean beast , thank you for the video Sir 👍😎 awesome 😎

Looks like a proper birfield axle shaft.... you said "lube the balls"🤣

That's a beast 💯💯👍👍🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Great video. Things happen sometimes 👍🏻

Dbxl 1.0 with as I have are the best r/c buggy losi has put out

Takes balls to speed run that thing

Hi mate another beast I've got 4 of those controller's they are great but nearly doubled in price now. Another great video mate keep them coming 👍👍🤪🤣🤣

They are back to about $70 now. There were at $100 a month ago

An easy mistake to make really, we all forgot to fit a screw on at some point, just as well there was no serious damage. Still a great run though Joe. 👍👌

🤦🏻‍♂️ One of those days 🤷‍♂️.

😁👍

All this talk of lubin balls 🤤 🎉 🤣

I am a little surprised no one has done a full-size style CV joint before. I would think on the bigger vehicles they would work really well.

Love it! Its really moving.. wish tire game would improve some😊 thankfully we have mx43's

Same here!

I've ruined a few sets of tires with 12s....Masher X, Hatchet, Rooster. Waiting on a set of Terraforms from MethodRC so hopefully they can hold up to the power

great video. did you have to change the out drives to be able to use the vitavon drive ball shafts?

I have a problem with the other end of shaft . Does nobody make something better on the hub end?

So cool! Do you think these will work for DBXL 2.0 gas?? My stock diff cups are getting worn after just a couple days of running...

Oh I’m still here my man lol always

Hey Joe what batteries are you using? I just recently installed the max4 combo in my dbxle. I usually run smc batteries but they don't have the ones I want in stock

Hello Can you please tell me which grease (the white one) you are using in the dif please ?

Will the shafts / cups fit the gas version???

What gearing are you running in your rig

Would those work on a 1.0?

A lot of guys probably don't know it but the ball system is very similar to how regular cars are driven up front.

The shaft has 3 ball connections out side the gearbox, but still has a pin inside the box, doesn't the same drive weakness exists!??

You've made a fan of Vitavon upgrades out of me after seeing how they improve the performance of some of these rigs! When it comes to the UDR, would you recommend upgrading the rear axle or the transmission housing first with Vitavon? I'm not sure which way to go, but thinking rear axle!? Also, thinking about going to the Vitavon rear carriers because they use a bigger inboard side bearing! Which appears to be a weak point in the Maxx. Any opinion or advice there?

From my experience with ball drive on RC, it doesn't hold up. My ball drive on a Baja was galling the grooves in the cups to the point it was actually catching - Also tried some specifically for the DBXL-E and I shattered a cup on 12S. Wheels continue to be a monumental problem, going to try TaylorRC's foamless super spikes, in theory they can't blow out.

12s is not for bashing that motor is 1.8kg +the massive controller + alloy parts x2 6s batteries i sold my 12s and went to a castle 1100kv and the truck performs much better and can 15,000w but like to keep it around the 8000w area for continuous use the proline wheels are a let down but the tyres are good i'm currently running taylor rc super spikes but they are not for jumping. check out my channel there's a vid of mine on 6s its surprising

I don’t understand who Vitavon is. They seem elusive to finding any information on the company

I really dont know what to think of this channel. While it's cool to see what upgrade options are out there everything this channel is about is to throw ludicrous amounts of money around and bolt parts on a vehicle somebody else designed. This comment would make more sense on the xmaxx vitavon aluminium chassis but I'm watching this video right now and this is what comes to my mind. I dont want to come of as a jerk here, but that mindset is what bugs me the most thinking of what became of our hobby in general. Instant gratification rtr buyers who only buy plug and play upgrades instead of thinking of a solution on their own, like model builders had to do 15 years ago.

I do like to build crawlers and do some budget stuff. On Bashers and Racers like this, whats there to build at home? On crawlers I can fab links and swap this part and that part and do way more. On Vehicles like this, if you look at the time frame of when I got it to now, its been about a year. I do these in stages as best I can.

I must say, i do enjoy you going overboard on some of your RC cars, just to get an idea of what's out there. The beautiful part about this hobby is you can do what ever your heart desires. If you have a taste for more go for it, if you have a taste for less go for it! Keep up the cool videos man. You are much appreciated.
