    Love the raw 500!! My ryft recently fell in a river. The raw 500 still worked even tho it was full of water. I also have one in my 10 pound redcat wendigo and it takes an absolute thrashing!

    I see a clod Buster in the title I thumbs up before even watching the video. So happy to see this thing back in action on the channel. Hands down my favorite build
    P.s. I would recommend from CPE their torsion style sway bar could easily be adapted to your chassis you run one on the front and rear and it will keep that clod flat. Would love to see you get the most out of this chassis cuz it's such a nice kit

    I love the Reefs servos. I had the V1 version of the Raw500 in my TRX4 and then now it has their Triple 7. I love the direct power versions. Regarding the BEC need for the Raw500 the Hobbywing 1080 internal BEC runs one of them really well even bound up in a rocky crag, but not sure about two. The Hobbywing 880 dual internal BEC is 4Amp which should be fine. The Raw500 is really efficient in terms of Amps (Savox servos are amp hogs)

    I always loved the Clod, back in the day, but ended up with a King Cab (which I also loved! 👍🏻). Yours is absolutely awesome!! You must have spent a fortune on it, as I don't ever remember seeing one handle as well as that!! I've seen Reefs being used in crawlers before, but never in something like this, but they're way out of my price range. They do look like you get what you pay for though. Great video. Thanks. 👍🏻

    For the price you cant beat those servos . Ive used a number of them in various RCs , they are pretty impressive .If your on a budget or just curious to see their performance pick one up and im sure you wont be disappointed . Perhaps the best budget friendly servo you can source .

  • @gbraadnl
    @gbraadnl 3 роки тому +2

    I do not really see a point in having a 'programmable' servo. A programmable servo would in my opinion only make sense if it allows for fixed endpoints to prevent the transmitter to damage it. It would make more sense to have a programmable receiver that can handle mixing, end point adjustment, brake setting, etc as that would clear the transmitter from this... and it would even make more sense if the ESC would be integrated like the FlySKy + Hobbywing combo that is used in the RGT V3.
