I like the ass shot on that rally body. :lol:

That Exotek body is cool, but kind of too futuristic for my taste. I have a Proline Crowd Pleaser, JConcepts also makes a cool body for the RC18T.

The wires that come out of the brushless motor can't be changed so to speak. They are the same wires that make up the windings in the motor. That's why brushless motor's always have stiff power leads, they are effectively the same enamled wire as the core of the motor. The only thing you can do is cut off the plugs right up near the plugs themselves and then re strip the enamel off the wire ends and re-solder to new plugs. One bitch of a job.

cheers.

PS. gotta be one of the longest running threads, lol....

Ya I figured out the whole motor windings = motor leads yesterday. Oh well the endbell cap snapped right back on! I will just be replacing the esc leads. Hopefully I can salvage the existing gold plugs rather than buying new.

p.s. Its the same car so why not the same thread? fuck it lol
Its seen alot of changes..
