Corally RC's
  1. Sketer
Will test tomorrow and see how she does now.

Wide hub kit
1 million center diff
Backflip LPs
17t pinion (seems like largest can go with stock motor mount and 52t spur)
Monster X ESC
1515 2200kv
40mm rocket fan.

Looking like can't get much longer on motor can without trimming the stock plastic at the little fan holder.

Yup 6s is what I will end up doing for sure! Whats the motor kv?
 
Gotta pump it up at least once lol
 
Looking good 😎👍🏼

Can't wait to see how it goes with its new power system..!! ( I think the wheels are too big though 🤔 )
That motor a 42x74mm sized can ??
Can size exactly 41.4 x 75.4

Don't like my wheels huh? Lol. I love BF LPs on 4s trucks.

GRRRREAT! Is pretty much the same setup I'm running. Only twist I did was replacing the Center Diff 52t against 46t, earplugged it and going for 15t pinion. BEAST for sure. Really looking forward reading your first impressions. BTW: No more issues with flipping around. :)

....and trying some other tyres. The backflip LP are fantastic ... need to try it with a bit less grip.

Me too, love the LP's👍 so versatile IMO 👌
Only thing I'd like to see different on the LP's is more positive offset. They'd be even more versatile I think.

Didn't say don't like Backflip LP's..!! I love BF LP's 😍😍😍 ( I use them on most of my rigs 4s or 6s, and keep spares just incase 🤣 )
Just said they look too big on a Sketer 😉

Totally agree.. 👍🏼 or even better, two different offsets 😉

Yupper! That would be nice! I really need to give the TC kronos tires a go. Took them off immediately when I got the truck as I like smaller tires(LP) for handling purposes. That was when the ground was dry..
We've got snow coming in at the end of the week. Might have to test out the kronos wheels/tires..
 
Test ran a few packs earlier - it is a BEAST. Now it drives like a 4s rig should.

Guess I am going much faster than Corally ever planned - the body sides start flapping a bunch at high speeds! Hahaha.

Backflips and double backflips off the ramp are no issue at all. Handles pretty well - will traction roll a bit if not careful, but still light enough to slide out and not dig in too much.

Still a pretty tough little rig - pretty impressed. One landing directly on the rear wheelie bar - no issues at all. Almost stuck in the ground like a lawn dart. lol.

Moved the front shocks to the upper hole on the shock tower - still has some chassis slap with the LP's - so all good there.

With the 17t pinion - ran hard - motor about 110 degrees F, ESC about 130 degrees F.

Body is already getting a bit rough - so will start looking into what body to go with next.

I took mine off instantly when I got my Kronos as I thought they looked and felt bad/ugly, but recently a lot of people have told me they are good tyres.!! 😉👍🏼

I've been hearing that too.. so either they're good, or we both have the same friends lying to us!! HaHa🤣🤣
 
Looks great! That thing will rip on 6s 😉
Yeah - I have a 6s pack that will fit - but thinking will just be a bit uncontrollable. lol.

Rear diff was the same - dry.

So all diffs good now. 100k/1mil/50k f/c/r.
