Yeti Jr. upgrades

Has anyone tried the bigger gmade XD shocks on the yeti jr yet ?

My GPM Racing rear shocks are getting stuck, I suspect the shaft is scratched and the piston might be damaged.

I can't find good reliable 1/18 shock at all...

I might just try to rebuild the stock shocks again.

Shapeways is taking a huge cut. Contact Anthony Chwalek on Facebook, he will give you a much better price.
Tell him I sent you guys :)
I have been doing marketing for him since I got my tray 2 years ago.
Still no cut for me :(

Thanks bud- I appreciate the link for the charger.
I have read it takes a long time to charge via USB.
I have this charger :

The other thing I read about the Yeti Jr Can Am was the controller can only be used with the electronics on the vehicle- not cool imo.

The remote has a receiver that is compatible
Link to it⤵️

Hey I just noticed your link for a receiver that works with the maverick remote - Thanks!

I don't know how big the regular yeti jr remotes are but the Can Am Maverick remote seems huge LOL! I think it might be made out of legos

I finally got to drive it around a bit and imo they are not too great :cry:. I noticed a pretty good delay from when I hit the throttle to when it took off even after adjusting the throttle trim knob. I was inside the house and fairly close so.... If that is the way it is I will be putting a decent esc/motor https://www.amainhobbies.com/castle...brushless-combo-4100kv-cse010-0147-01/p451393
in it and using my Axial Tactic TTX300 3 Channel 2.4ghz Radio Transmitter &TR325 3ch Receiver.

That sucks I thought that because they were newer they would be a bit better quality. I wonder if it is the remote or the electronics?? And I also want to go to the mmx, but I’m gonna bullet proof the drivetrain first

The remote is good
I'm still using the stock radio (TTX200) with a hobbywing 1060 ESC and a tactic TR325 receiver

If you rebuild the stockers, could you test fit the extra resi shock caps on the front and test for clearance
 
I just rebuilt the 4 stock shocks with the new red Springs.
Sorry didn't see your request.

Pretty sure it dosent fit the faux reservoir in the front
