Maverick flux R 20 tooth pinion! 100kph challenge.

Ойын-сауық

What will it take to get this Maverick Quantum Flux R 4s race truck to 100kph?
Iv installed a 20t pinion, made a few small changes and added some DIY stuff and hopefully we can get this thing to at least 100kph, more would be nice😅
First speedrun and bash test.

    It has got a nice sound, I think with different wheels and getting closer to 100kph it will sound even better😁👍

    Thanks Tim🙂 Yeah its a great platform for speedrun experimenting, new wheels and a super plush servo should help the stability a lot. More teeth on the pinion for speed👌😅

    Thanks mate👊 100kph should be achieved with the next few mods hopefully🤞 Yeah im the same with gyros, iv never used them, can't stand them, but there were times I questioned my decision not to use them😅 Hopefully the mods help the stability, new wheels and better servo should help.

    Hi Bud, This is a rocket for its size and weight and not to mention its boxy body , i love the truck and am so glad i bought one dont care what others say this is a fun and a awesome platform for what you pay on sale at crazy hobbies i paid $400 aud and im really enjoying this i may change out the radio as i too was getting signal loss in certain area's about the same distance you where at around 25-30 meters thanks for great content liked & subbed cheers bud 🙂

    Thank you so much Andrew😁 Yes they are great rigs, honestly to me it feels very similar to a Infraction just lighter and a bit slower, acts very similar. And as you said for the price it's definitely worth it! But yes the radio system isn't the greatest when talking signal. DumboRC system is the go👌 Thanks again Andrew🙏

    Excellent video as usual bro! These 1/8 Mavericks are really worth every cent, I'm lucky enough to have a couple. The Rally version is a absolute brute. As you pointed out though bro in one of your vids, The front drive cups assembly should be checked before running the first time as the grub screw is not locked in and will fall out. I also reinforced the body with 2 cans of Rustoleum Rubber Spray from Boonings and man what a difference it made! Other than that Ive yet to have any issues with them. Same with the muscle car version of this one. The other thing is I put a Dumbo system in them and activated the gyro. Huuuge difference. 90kph+ reliably on a 100c Zeee 8000mAh. (shorty) They are fast, Reasonably priced and will certainly put a smile on ya dial and thats what its all about ay Thanks man, Take care 🤪💯🤙

    Thanks mate👍 They are very affordable and so much better than a lot of people make out they are, as you said no major issues whatsoever other than loctiting the grubs👌 Your not going to like this though, I sold it yesterday, I kinda had to though, 100% needed the money😕 Try and get another one one day, save and get the next to be released version maybe.

We should expect some good cars out of HPI soon since their financial rescue early this year. I reckon hang in there and see what they bring out mate. Like yourself, we have the big name stuff but its good to find these cheaper options that give the same fun factor. I just wish more people could understand that bit.

    Cheers man👊 Yeah it definitely isn't the most stable car but I think a few mods will help, one being wheels. They were the stock wheels and they are a little slippery. And a high quality servo I think will do the trick, the stock one isn't bad but there are much better ones available👌
