Traxxas should take note. MAKE IT BRUSHLESS. LOL

I had this 1/10 summit since 2010. Change the body with proline gmc topkick, tire with proline bigjoe 40. Beautifull experience playing with this beast. Waterproof, 4x4/4×2 selector, locker, high low gear. Not much toy that time with those capability. I will keep it for my grand children

The problem in the diff are the small ball bearings of the bevel gear. Some swap the inner one for a bronze bushing, this reduces the wear of the bearing and makes the drivetrain more stable.

Cool it's about time to see this beast upgraded 😉
Great job Kevin 👊😎 like always 💯🔥

I did the castle conversion to mine a few years back. On 6s i was either not able to get it to slip just right or was blowing up diffs. Replaced all the driveshafts and metal diffs shimmed tight and still had issues. Changed it back to stock and got a kraton 6s.

Upgrade your inner and outer pinion bearings to some sealed ceramic or similar quality.
The extra rpm and huge shock loads will kill bearings and take the diffs with them.LEM makes upgrade parts

This is just testament to how tanky the summit really is. I've got one and absoletely love it. Definitely not meant for that kind of power, but it just eats up those jumps and hits!

I just put one of those castle beasts in my son uv a digger. Man it’s so good. Makes it perfect . More power, no cogging. Crawling ability. But the summit looks like a bit of fun now.

[StepOrDieFR]

when Kev gets a new toy:
step 1: add more power
step 2: destroy your new toy
step 3: rebuild the toy and then redo the first two steps

these 3 stages are sources of unlimited entertainment

Just put this exact combo on my summit, within less than 5800mah worth of run time at 4s the rear ring and pinion was chunked. Time for helical gears, with the right shims and the mesh set it should be strong enough.

[matthewjacknisky]

So happy you finally upgraded the summit. Now it gives me more ideas what I should do to mine. You looked like you were having a blast. Thank you for the awesome video Kevin!

[jasonkraus]

Pushes button, truck takes off and knocks everything off of "What Happened?!?!?"
That was hilarious, Kevin. Love your content and enthusiasm as always.

[finleymakee]

honestly I think the brushed system on that thing is pretty good for a brushed system, obviously brushless=better, but for a brushed, that system can move that truck pretty well

[mralexjbishop]

this combo is 5-6hp. ive had it for years. Its PERFECT for the Summit

[JIPPERR_]

Thanks Kev, this made me laugh for sure. Love the big power in that summit!

[chriscottell]

Awesome video kevin. The Summit was my first rc car that i got bout a year ago. Great fun. I've got the Xmaxx 7s too, its next level of awesomeness. 👍👍

[The_white__f]

Nice! My summit is tekin rx8 swapped it's got some power! But your gonna need to upgrade to some mip shafts to handle the power. That system wil literally just snap those shafts or spin those pins out of the plastic shafts

[HerbsmanRevs]

My 6s Summit is still my fave RC after many years, always fun. Needed to upgrade rear diff and shafts to all metal and fit Trencher tyres, all good otherwise.

[ProbeGT]

I have one. Climbing ability is awesome. Fill the tires with water (learned that after river expedition) then the climbing ability goes to stupid crazy. The weight the water creates drops the center of gravity and add weight to the soft tire can grip better.
