Baja air filter on xt. Need help please

You can swap the linkages.

[Rs4 tony]

But your filter dents in?

And now that I flipped the linkage. When I turn my remote off and the car stays on (let's say I lose connection) the built in fail safe applies the brakes which is really the gas cuz I swapped linkages

 

[Rs4 tony]

Should I just buy a TeamPhatdad rc angle kit.

 

[Heyns Racing]

this is how I did mine.

That's just the prefilte. The x series are tighter you can use one of these.

failsafe just needs to be reset.

Will the incline deff solve my problem? Meaning I don't need to do shit with it on?

 

[sdmaker]

yes, it should

 

[Rs4 tony]

Should or will? I'm a kid and can't afford all these recent parts/mods

 

[sdmaker]

well you don't need one to make it work. I run my linkage like Heyns Racing shows in his pic. then just reset your failsafe and you will be good to go.

 

[Rs4 tony]

I'm not that smart. So I'll just buy the angle up shreadhead thing.

 

[sdmaker]

its really pretty simple. failsafe is easy to reset, and you already had your linkage switched around. What do you need help with?

to reset failsafe

1. Turn on both RX and TX

2. Hold the throttle (CH2) in the position you want it to be in when fail-safe kicks in (example: brake position).

3. Press the fail-safe button (little button next to the led on the reciever) until it blinks and turns solid again.

4. Test it! Go full throttle and turn the radio off. It should go to brake position.

you can go to my photobucket page and see pics of my linkage setup.

I just ordered the shread head incline thing. My front left wheel locks up at times because the inner wheel hub where the axel connects to rubs on a long screw bc when I bought the car the dealer needed the screw for something and jimmy rigged it for me. It's directly under the hub. I'll try and snap a pic

Here is the picture of the screw i need
