dunerunner

My DR currently has 29/31 teeth gears on A & B (see inline photo). I find it too heavy on dead start and it takes a long stretch before the engine revs up to accelerate, and by the time the engine revs up, its already too fast :) Is gears A=25 and B=35 ok? I'm pretty sure I can manage not...

I was inspecting my gears and wanted to remove them all for cleaning, unfortunately the idler shaft for the middle gears wasn't fixed and needed to be countered from the inside so it wouldn't spin while attempting to loosen the nut. To add difficulty to the situation, there isn't much space to...

Does anyone make a drill starter for the dunerunner? I saw a guy selling a remote starter for 1/5 scale Bajas on eBay but that's it.

So I've had my DR for about 4 months now and I have stripped out both the front and back spur/crown gears, The back went out first so I just put the front diff on the back ( front was disconnected because of a broken dogbone) ran through about 5 tanks of gas and now there stripped again. Is...

I just received my new dune runner yesterday. This is my first 1/5 scale... the closest I have come in the past is a 1/8 scale gas buggy. I must say that I wasn't sure what to expect. The buggy is a sight to behold. I was very impressed with the quality of the build. I was a little nervous...

For you guys who have driven both Dunerunner vs xb what can you say about each model. I am torn between them. I live in Florida so I can bash year round / Currently own a losi 2.0 nitro buggy but never 1/5..

After breaking in (lol, mostly 3/4 to full throttle for 1 tank) and extensive upgrades and modding, I finally took out my new DR to do some therapeutic bashing! Car runs great! All of the upgrades below were well worth it. My time out was cut short due to the stupid plastic steering servo horn...

Problem solved, see post #24 Hey guys. Got my dune runner in today. Installed all the upgrades I had bought for it. Got it started and ran it for about half a tank, then noticed a melted plastic and rubber smell. Well the silicone hose/coupling that joins the manifold and the pipe melted...

What plastic body parts are worth replacing with aluminum? What parts fail or break fast on the dunerunner? Want to get all the weak parts swapped out right off the bat. Eg control arms, servo mount.

So I want to buy 2 sets of Vertigo 8mm extended hub adapters from DDM and run Pro-Line Desperado wheels on my dunerunner. But Im a bit confused. which baja wheels should I buy? 5b front and rears? or 2 sets of front? 2 sets of rears? I plan on buying from DDM so if you could post a links to...

Hi guys, My dunerunner just stopped moving, the motor runs good, but just doesn't move. Any idea what is it? Thank you.

I'm thinking if picking up a 2 speed Trans for my dunerunner. What gearing would give me good take off and good top speed?

Hi guys. Im Joe. I got back into RC hobby a few months back. I used to have a bunch of on and off road cars 15 years ago, including 1/10, 1/8 and 1/4 scale models. Now I have a Traxxas Slayer Pro 4x4, and Im getting a Dunerunner in 4 days time. I've done a lot of reading on recommended...

Hey, new to this 1/5 and have a dune runner that I pick up used, has everything stock no mods what's so ever. First couple of gas tanks ( which I have been mixing my gas 25ml oil to 1 litre of gas 25% mix ) ran great. Sluggish lower end bur good mid and high end. Now it just bogs and won't drive...

Hello fellow dunerunners! I am new to the 1/5 scale as the dunerunner was my first purchase. I like the way it sits right now but I used to race shortcourse in 1/8 scale for a while and loved the look of them. What are some of the mods that people are doing in order to make this work. I have...

Hi guys, Just like the title says, how long do you run your DR? Do you run back to back to back tanks or run one tank let it cool down for 10-15 min. ?

Hi All Just doing some research Which body do you run on your Dunerunner?

Hi Guys The only manual I can find is for a 2WD version so it doesn't show the centre drive post where the dogbone goes to the front diff. Can anyone help with the size of the bearings in the post please? I'm pulling her down and may as well replace the stockers with some decent high speed...

hey guys I am looking forward in to get a dunerunner so I wonder if the new 2 speed kits out there will fit the dune runner???
