I put monster truck tires on my Axial SCX10 Deadbolt

I've wanted to try big monster truck tires on my SCX10 for a while and finally decided to buy some Tamiya Lunchbox tires. The wheels for that truck don't have hexes so I designed and printed 3 piece wheels. I also made a longitudinal servo mount which works much better than the stock mounting position. The axles have HPI differentials. Spools aren't a good idea with big grippy tires or going fast in general. The shocks are Injora ones and the springs they came with are way too stiff but fine for sand.

The big tires really work. It floats right over loose sand and leaves cool tracks!

My original servo mount broke years ago on my SCX10 Deadbolt. I finally decided to fix it right and made a new mount, but ran into clearance issues. So I designed a bracket to rotate the servo so it's horn down and oriented the long way. It works!

The battery on my OEM remote is dead so I got a Telesin because it's much cheaper. But it's doing something strange! It's paired fine but the display doesn't batch what it's doing. It says scanning but when the record button is pressed recording starts. That's fine as long as it works. But when I stop recording the Max 2 turns off. Quick Capture is disabled and auto off is set to Never. This doesn't happen with the Quik iOS app. I also tried the same Telesin with a 13 and it only turns off about half the time. Any ideas?

I've found varying recommendations for silica gel dessicant drying temps but I decided to just try putting it in the dryer with my PETG at 60C and it has worked perfectly. A few hours doesn't dry it, but 12+ hours works. Suddenly I see the convenience of desiccant holders that fit in the spool, because both the filament and silica can dry together!

I've never liked the toy style wheels with the huge inner diameter and small outer diameter, and I like realistic looking tires too. I've been using 1.9 wheels and 89mm Tamiya Humvee tires on my Granite Grom. These are great but a bit too big for the Granite Grom. So I decided to try 85mm Lesu tires designed for commercial trucks. The thread pattern is similar to real desert race trucks and the compound is hard, but grippy. The tires have foam inside but I don't think it's needed because the rubber is thick and pretty rigid.

I only had one 1.7 inch wheel so I measured it and made my own design. I wasn't sure if the small wheels would clear the hubs on the Granite Grom but they do!

I don't have a Mojave Grom but I bet these wheels and tires would fit if the body was trimmed.
