Ooh whats that personal touch or are you going to keep us waitingI strioped down ma new one for some personal touch
Thought it would be cool to start a thread: What did you do with your Outcast today?
I took the front diff out this morning and put in some 50,000 fluid to help reduce front end tire balloon. Took it out and it made a good difference. Really like how it handles now and distributes power.
LHS has the stock body clip and body clip retainers so I bought them a week ago and put them on the body. Had a couple missing or broken.
Outcast started to feel a little bland today and I thought it would be a good time to put on the 17T pinion. Omfg did that wake that thing up! Damn, like getting a new rig again. Absolute monster. Looking forward to getting it back out again tomorrow.
So what did you do with your outcast today?
Lmao I love the ball sackI drove it till it broke kinda put my phone in it for gps and im only on 4s and got it to 53 mph but thats with a 22t and put my truck nuts on
Mine is 4 days old. Got some parts I ordered installed today, shimmed the diffs and replaced the oil.
RPM front arms (store didn't have them, only had rears).
Savox SW1210SG (stock servo didn't make it 5 feet).
TBR wheelie bar/skid.
Made homemade steel wear plates for the skids.
Shimmed diffs and used 100/500/100 in them.
From the MUGE0206 Mugen Seiki kit, I replaced the shims on the ends of the x-shafts, the Arrma ones looked pretty roughed up already only after 2 packs. I also added a shim under each sun gear so the o-ring isn't rubbing on the back of the gear/pin. Still spun smooth once together. On the ring gear side of the diff, I added 2 of SWX-101018 SWorkz 13x16x0.2mm shims to tighten up the mesh. Had very little gear lash after that. There was a pretty noticeable tick of play before I put the shims on the ring gear side.How many shims did you need to add ? Internal ? I thought the V3 diffs doesn't really need any internal shimming ?
I put 50k in the front/100k center and 40k in the rear.Had to remove my front diff, started thinking about the diff fluid. Did you just change to 50k in the front and kept center and rear stock fluid ?
Moved my front upper shock mounts out to the furthest hole to hopefully add some stiffness. I have them on the inside hole on the RPM arms to raise the height a bit. Still trying to find springs that are stiffer than the V2 outcast. Have read the Tekno orange are softer.
Moved the camera mount as well. Where I had it, almost all you saw was tire.
Thanks, I've rebuilt and shimmed plenty off diffs but very few Arrma's. The ones on my Talion V3 I did not feel the need to add any internal shims, I've only added one external 13x16 shim to tighten up the mesh. On my Outcast it's like you say, the shims looks kinda rough already, (never looked closely on the Talion I guess) I've read some adding a shim under each sungear and some that only adds one on the crown gear side. Did you use a total of 3 external 13x16 shims on the crown gear side ? On the ones I have made 1 external 13x16 shim was already added from factory.From the MUGE0206 Mugen Seiki kit, I replaced the shims on the ends of the x-shafts, the Arrma ones looked pretty roughed up already only after 2 packs.

Just installed a single fan hobbywing motor cooler. Had to crimp it a bit in the vice so it would fit snug. Also removed the endcap screws so I could slide it on easier. I could have turned the fan to be on it's side, but I wanted it pointing up a bit so it could suck in clean air better. To do that, I had to cut the center cage/body brace pin off and the plastic part a bit where the clip goes. Also had to cut a bit off the heat sink. Probably all pointless... but I like it better this way.
