Castle Creation SCT Motor in Fury

[Justin50208`]

I'm thinking of buy a Castle Creation SCT combo with a 3800kv motor for my Arrma Fury mega (2013). Will this motor be too much for the car? Will I break my diff with it?

@Justin50208` the SCT Combo should work nicely with the Arrma Fury.

Ok, thank You!

I found out that my fury mega is the 2014 version (after opening up the gearbox), will the SCT combo still work? Or will i need to upgrade my diff to a metal one?

If you have the newest version of the Fury with the plastic gears than you should be fine as long as you set the slipper correctly and for extra insurance you can use some punch control.

Ok, Thank you for your help!

I'm running a castle sct combo in my fury mega, 2014 spec, which has the plastic/composite gears and I had to switch to the metal gears for all the gears on the truck,

Did you only upgrade the gears and kept the mega gearbox or did you upgrade everything? (Blx gearbox, input shaft and motor plate)

If you have the Fury Mega as shown in my profile picture, then it comes with the same transmission as the Fury BLX brushless version. I have been racing my Fury Mega with the Castle SCT brushless motor without any problems. It really helps to use some punch control and set the slipper so it slips a little when you accelerate hard. I guess it depends on how hard you are on your stuff.

Another less expensive option, is the Traxxas Titan 12T motor which really rips in an otherwise stock Fury Mega. It is plug and play with the stock speed control.

Mine is the 2014 version, and I just put the metal gears, diff included, into the stock housing and motor plate

Ok Thanks

 

[Southernfury85]

No problem I hope that helps you in some way

If you want I can get some pics of my setup and post it,

 

[Justin50208`]

No, it's okay. I ordered the metal gears on Tower Hobbies, and I should be fine now. Thank you for your help once again.

I just installed this motor to my fury and was wondering if anyone knew where I should set the slipper to, stock, or different?

 

[Southernfury85]

I have mine just a hair over stock, I found that works best for me. Are you running the stock composite gears still?

 

[FURYSPD]

Yes. I will try that. I was wondering because whenever I would try to go more than half throttle at start, the slipper clutch would spin and it wouldn't go very quickly.

Thanks

 

[Southernfury85]

That's the problem I had too, and once I got that figured out is when I started destroying the composite gears lol,

 

[FURYSPD]

Same, I destroyed a gear, but my Lhs didn't have the upgrade in Stock so I just bought the composite one and am setting the slipper.

 

[Southernfury85]

I had to source my gears offline and all but the spur gear now is the metal gears and the spur gear will be replaced with the metal version once it's done

 

[FURYSPD]

Will getting a metal spur strip my pinion, or is it better in every way possible
