    Thanks bro, Brian has came up with some good mods for this truck. I really like the electronics replacement kit from him. Let's you put in a 3 wire servo and get rid of all those batteries. I used an Axial esc and a 2s lipo in mine. Got rid of a bunch of weight and gave it better low end with more top end

Have To admit, I enjoy driving the Yoda better, it just looks so much more cooler with the long travel shock flex. Selling Gelande, its looking like. Also, def am Interested in joining the giveaway you are offering. Thanks brother and have a great day!

    Hi. I recently picked up this truck. Did you know that it has a stop feature? That 1st push of reverse often turns on the stop gear built into their ESC. Then the 2nd push goes into reverse. I think that is what you were experiencing. Cheers. Thanks for the video, I want to upgrade my tires now!

  • @BullgearRCvideos

    @BullgearRCvideos

    3 жыл бұрын

    Yes, I know about the brake feature. Seems like a hold over from Mini-Z cars or something. Kinda inconvenient for crawling in my opinion. I like for the drag brake to become active when I let off the throttle, and for it to go directly to reverse when I want reverse. New tires made a good improvement, but then the steering servo was weak. As I understand there are a lot more upgrades now than back when I did this video. I may have to explore some of them in the future. Thanks for watching bro 👍
