Serpent 811E Buggy Thread

I'm using a Hitec hs-7940th that has 16kg, nor sure how light other guys are going. And any standard servo horn will work, nothing long or short.

silly question but how do I get the motor in with the pinion gear on? Looks like I have to remove a battery tray? sorry haven't ran this thing yet

I found that if you flip up the battery lid it should slide in. Also you need to take the diff housing off to set the gear mesh. Its tight but that works for me.

Li e the guy above said for installing the motor, I've never taken the top mount off the diff to set the mesh. I have always just put your finger on the Pinion to hold it there and wiggle the out drive on the center diff to see if you have a tick of play. Oh, and take a look and see if your Pinion is centered on the spur gear.

Thanks, motor is in!

What kind of battery tray mods do you guys do to fit other batteries? Any aftermarket trays available, or you just cut these up?

Looking for a little help, I'm looking to build a speed project but I'm worried about the stock motor mount not having the travel I need. With the stock spur gear on the car what's the biggest pinion gear that will fit on the car? Would anyone mind checking for me? Also just putting this out there, if anyone has a RCM motor mount for sale I'd be interested!

New pivotballs camberlink
I need new camberlink pivotballs. But i wonder IF there is another cheaper brand that fit?
I think they are 7,5mm and have a m3 thread.

Hello guys, how much would you say a Serpent 811BE 2.0 roller would go for? Someone is trying to sell me one and I wasn't sure.. I don't see any on the F/S forum to judge by. Also how out of date is that model? I see there is a 2.1, so is there much of a difference? thanks!
#5217
Does anyone know if Serpent are bringing an 811-be 2.2 out anytime soon?
I have been punting around in my rtr 811-be 2.0 with a few chassis/suspension upgrades and am very happy with this.
The 811-be 2.1 doesn't have enough changes for me to justify buying it though.

Sometime in the coming months Serpent should be releasing the SRX8e which is a whole new platform. The nitro buggy is already out and i have heard the ebuggy should be out with in a few months. I would keep your current buggy for the time being, especially since you are happy with it!

Cheers mate.
If the eBuggy uses the same front and rear ends as the Nitro then definitely worth waiting for, lots of changes to keep me happy

Trying to find a post from chicky03 that listed the V1-V2 springs and the actual rate of hardness for them.
Anyone know what page it was on?, I can't find it for the life of me.
I want to put the V1 grey (5.6) on the front but have a set of V2 green (4.65) that I am using now but am certain they feel stiffer!
Judging by the highly accurate squeeze between thumb and index finger system
