    Great review video. I have a question some Gen Ace 5000 mah 45C 4S batteries. Will these work or do I need to get 100c? Planning on doing some FPV and mild bashing with this platform. Thanks

    • @smurfwithavette

      Thanks for the comment! C rating is interesting because many folks say the rating on the pack is not accurate and mostly used for marketing. There have been many claiming some 45c packs have better discharge rates than 100c packs. My personal experience though is that with Gens Ace and Spektrum batteries, get the highest C rating you can. I have noticed a difference in my cars and 3D planes. 45C is fine but get one 100C when you get a chance and I think you will notice it has more kick. But get one to start before you buy several more expensive 100C batteries.

    Good, informative video about the different C6 models and years. You should have mentioned the Z51 package, which turned the base into a more track focused car.

    You need to adjust your mirrors. That blind spot isn't bad at all. I can tell it's wrong from the video. You shouldn't be able to see down the side of your car in the mirror while sitting in a driving position. That car doesn't have t tops. Hitting things at an angle decreases the scraping.

    I got mine a couple of months ago, two runs an issue. Runs at Novi RC track. Various stuff was loose, rear shocks needed a lot of oil out of the box. I think mine are same length, I had horrible driveline vibration on start of second run. Also uneven acceleration, may be bearing and/or even bad diffs. Haven’t addressed these new issues yet. No obvious visible damage. Terrible quality, I know stuff isn’t perfect in this hobby but this is just junk. RTR should be just that, should not have to spend hours fixing stuff out of the box. I’m almost ready to unload it and just sell for parts and maybe get a Tekno kit eventually. I’m really over Horizons bad quality of recent… Out of my last 5 cars from them, 3 had numerous issues… I have the 8 elite kit I built a bit ago, few issues with it. Spare time for me is limited with work and work travel, etc so just little time to build kits. Like a kit now and again, or a decent roller/slider but also don’t mind a RTR if it’s made decent. Also few issues with my Arrma TLR typhon. My backup truggy now is my 1:8 Serpent Truggy (RTR) is running now, many runs and only one small repair, stock besides a new receiver/transmitter and tires.

      If you have the buttona on the mirror then you likely have OnStar. Honestly it's so easy to pull the fuse. Just go in the passenger footwell pull down the carpet closest to the engine. You just reach your hand up there grab the top of the carpet and pull towards the seat. You'll see the fuse box and the tools inside to remove the fuse. Let me know if this doesn't help.

    On my first pack running on dirt and loose rocks my ‘center drive shaft’ snapped in two. Seems like a weak point. Why do you say avoid aluminum upgrade? What is the downside?

    • @smurfwithavette
      @smurfwithavette 3 місяці тому

      So during my first 10 or so battery packs, I also had my stock plastic driveshaft snap. I replaced with another stock plastic center driveshaft and it has held up fine after A LOT of abuse. I do not recommend an aluminum driveshaft because you are shifting the weak point to other drivetrain items that are not as easy to replace. If I were you I would try another stock plastic one. If you break another plastic one, then consider upgrading to aluminum. General rule of thumb: When upgrading to aluminum you are shifting the weak point to something else. You want the weak point on things that are cheap and easy to replace.

    • @Nutz_forRCs
      @Nutz_forRCs 3 місяці тому

      Ordinarily I would say that’s true but the driveshaft is telescopic so I figured it would have some give and not transfer the shock like suspension arms would. But I think going to go with plastic one more time makes sense. It’s only a $10 part. Thanks

    Very informative video and well presented. I have a 2007 Vette convertible which I have owned for 10yrs and I love it. I changed the exhaust to a Corsa sport also and it sounds sweet with no drone. I also changed the cabin air filter and the old one was filthy. I didn't think about the On Star fuse but I will pull it out. One thing you didn't mention is to check the harmonic balancer for wobble. It is a common problem on the LS2 and LS3 engines and can cause major problems if you ignore it.

    I ended going with an 84mm 5.4# spring up front and 90mm 5# spring in the rear with 50W oil front/rear. Front and rear have M2C racing 15mm spacers and the small clip spacer from Arrma. Ride height is perfect for me. Dampening on both compression and rebound is excellent. Track handling is a lot better and still has fast action for fast straight line bumpy terrain. Other mods include Ali aluminum center drive, Globact steering bell crank including servo arm. Globact aluminum pivot balls. Had the Globact servo saver as well but the spring is weak and it binds inside the housing causing tons of play in the steering. Put factory saver back in with aluminum arm. I'm a little wary of the center drive being aluminum but so far so good.

    I think the skip-shift was as much to do with Corporate Average Fuel Economy (CAFE) as it might have been for emissions. Automakers had to meet certain MPG requirements averaging all of their productions to hit the Fed specified CAFE mandate…nice video

      I am not 100% on this, but I heard that the skip-shift idea came to fruition to avoid charging customers the gas guzzler tax. It might actually make sense because I looked up "What are the requirements to bypass a gas guzzler tax" and the result was "Combined fuel economy of at least 22.5 mpg: No tax".
