Senton Senton 6s reBUILD

[K-BASH]

Thanks for posting that. That's exactly the type of driving I do, I've been running the Amazon ones and was wondering If the price was worth it. The Amazon ones are slow but tolerable.

Curious, Would a faster servo make it harder to control at higher speeds?

When I go for speed I turn the steering trim way down where front tires barely turn.not a good turning radius,but good for speed...previous owner musta also replaced bushing with bearings in steering ,cause it turns effortlessly

Looked up the specs, yea its quick. I feel like I'm missing out now. I'm thinking what that would be like in my Felony

I got a good one with this truck an I bout a outcast parts truck CHEAP an it had this one in it.anothor HS-HT-HV SAVOX
Gos to show you the looks of something doesn't mean its better in the end.im talking bout RC's HERE..?CAUSE THESE high $ SAVOX SERVOS LOOK CRAPPY BUT ARE ONE OF THE BEST OUT THERE. I don't necessarily need it to look good but I do need it to work good?

Pics or it didn't happen. They are out there.they want 350+++++$ for them.or you could buy all the parts an build one 4 about 1000$$$. Or turn typhon into one 4 600ish..gonna pay either way.BIG ROCK,NERO,FAZON,SENTON6, HEL EVEN THE 2WD FURY AN RAIDER CAN BE MORE THAN MSRP. . All sawt after vehicles ..just saw 600$ for a nero roller somewhere.

I'm gonna fix mine up real nice ,then . Drive it like I stole it

One of the two is already reserved. The other one needs some easy fixing and cleaning (I don’t understand why people don’t run at least a quick towel over things they are selling) and has a current bid of euro 240 (including 3 Gens lipos; 1x4s and 2x3s).

It happened,. Most all discontinued armas are going to cost you more than they're worth just because you can't go to the Hobby store and buy one anymore. Something you can't go to the store and buy you can put whatever number you want on it and if somebody wants it bad enough they'll pay whatever. Some people have Deep Pockets an $1,000 won't fase them . People like to hang on to things that are discontinued and they don't make no more like a real car for instant people buy them and put them in storage sit in storage for 20 years with 10 miles on it

Got a new DUMBORC X6,bunch of parts time to tear it down.

 

[K-BASH]

Almost bare chassis.

 

[K-BASH]

So I'm starting on the front end first.getting new lower arms,(cracked one )new TRB bearings,front diff serviced an inspected.LOOK CLOSE FOR ANY OTHER DAMAGED PARTS.crack on a-arm is hard to see.LESS THAN A YEAR AGO I BOUGHT MY 1ST RC.BRUSHED TRAXXAS SLASH.WENT TO LHS THE NEXT WEEKEND AN BOUGHT brushless 3s system. Gave the guy the look,he said you want me to install it for you.YA!!!!Apparently it happens quite a bit. . I had no idea how to swap a system.this will be my 3rd MAJOR TEARDOWN AN reBUILD.. a whole lot more little screws that are hard to get to on that/compared to this senton.IVE LEARNED ALOT IN LESS THAN A YEAR.MOST OF IT FROM THIS FORUM.
BREAK IT,REBUILD IT,BASH IT,REPEAT,REPEAT,REPEAT.

I
I've been ready to get that transmitter, definitely have to let me know how that does

 

[K-BASH]

Far as I got,waiting on parts before I can go any further. Saw this 3d vinyl chassis wrap on a build from this forum.had to give it a try.checked fitment on HR motor mount & EXB servo mount.ALL GOOD SO FAR.exb sticker with servo mount...SENTON EXB???

 

[SKUNKWORK SC]

Were those precut?

 

[K-BASH]

Were those precut?

No came in a roll..I'm horrible at painting an this kind of trimming to..lol lotta cussing going applying it.

 

[SKUNKWORK SC]

Been playing with that stuff a little bit. Good idea though, bet it would be easier to wipe down.

 

[Sandracer_NL]

@SKUNKWORK SC
Yep, used the vinyl wrap on my chassis, motor mount, wing, and mud guards. See my build thread to see how it turned out. Pretty happy with the result?
Instead on the 4d carbon @K-BASH used I used 3d. All about personal preference look wise. All you need is the vinyl, heat gun or (good) hair dryer and x-acto blade.
No need to buy ‘rc specific’ vinyl, just buy vinyl meant for wrapping a car, motor etc.

There was enough for bottom an piece in inside.coulda,should took my time more.coulda done a better,cleaner job.maybe once all the screws are thro bottom of chassis it'll look a little better.see how it holds up..I got leopard 4082-2000kv on way.haven't decided between max8 or max6.max6 is like 20$ more..
