    The best review I have seen for a long time !! A like and a new subscriber! 👍 .. I loved the construction notes 👍 ... I was considering buying the rtr since I am in a zen phase .. 😬⌚🛠️ ... But in view of the fact that you have to disassemble half a car to change the engine, I think I'll buy the kit ... What I don't know is whether to leave the Dig without a servo, because in the GOM I have, I hardly ever use it😳 ... And seeing what the owners say about how hard the springs are, I plan to try the gmade transition ... Congratulations on the channel, good job 👏

    You pointed out my biggest problem with the Axial Capra at 5:58. They do not provide the complete servo saver but make you buy the recommended servo. What I did is bought a Savox servo and then got a servo saver for it that I used. Kinda annoying that Axial did this and some people will be put off about it.

    • @TheRCNetwork
      @TheRCNetwork  4 роки тому

      Yes, I completely agree. Later, many of us found out that the Spektrum servo that is recommended is an Axial rebranded servo from the Yeti Jr, and Axial has a parts tree that will somewhat solve this. Simply adding that parts tree into the box would let other servos work easy. Hopefully Horizon/Axial figures this out.

    Hey buddy. Any advice on rims that can be used with this build? Seems like diameter is smaller by a pinch so normal bead locks will have a bit of a play. I’m talking about a small piece of half axel between hex nut and thread itself. Try putting those that came with a kit and fit them on your trx for example. Please advise.

    • @TheRCNetwork
      @TheRCNetwork  2 роки тому

      Most 1.9" rims (with SLW compatible hubs) will work...you just may need to adjust the SLW hub width to clear the portals. I was able to run 225's (which are the smallest) on mine with VP Method 105's

  • @Waltkat
    @Waltkat 4 роки тому

    Thanks for your very thorough build review and especially the warning about SPMSSX107. Luckily I have a 3D printer so I can make this part to fit any servo I chose. Take that Horizon! And this is coming from a former Horizon products dealer, lol.
    For the price, I think this should have come with tires. I'll bet leaving them out was a Horizon idea to milk more money out of people. I'm beginning to think the Traxxas TRX-4 sport kit is a much better value (US$50 cheaper and includes tires!). Heck, the TRX-4 chassis kit (includes tires and all of the electronics) is a much better value, even though it costs US$40 more than the Capra.

    • @TheRCNetwork

I have 2 shorty packs but they are the kind with the banana plugs that connect to the top of the battery so they don't fit.

      The 23 and 25 refer to the tooth spline of the servo - many servos use 25t, but some still use 23, like Spektrum (Horizon Hobbies/Axial's house brand) Check your servo manufacturer and see which one you need
