ph2t.

ya the nikko motor is better than the stock green forsure. about as good as the red or yellow motors.

I've got FETs on the way, so soon, very soon.

Hogs got your biff in his.

Shit just got one, and these things are FUN, thanks for making me get one guys, O and Xmod decal kits are 3 bucks, i picked one up, hehe im goiing to rewind one of these motors, pretty small i think i can do it, also put the fucking nikko motors into these and they FLY, lol espically with my huge ass wing,

Edit these things CAN be rewound but damn it aint easy work.

these things are freaking hard to just get the wire off the armuture, theres like 80 winds of super thing wire.

i got one of these things

just wondering which gear and motor combo is the best for torque? like climbing over stuff?

i know the orage motor is fast but does it have torque?


cheers

I thought the red motor with green gears gave me buttloads of torque. I prefer the orange motor just to tame the torque down a bit.

I just thought I'd be different and convert my MT to RWD instead of it staying AWD, it's not really worth it too do this and all You got to do is take out the driveshaft and the gears up front, and Yes it sucks putting it back together so I'll leave it RWD, It doesn't effect performance and it doesn't pop wheelies as well either, sooo this is all I've done besides put in a torquey-er steering motor which did help, I'm soon going to get the motor upgrades and the tires.
But otherwise the RWD conversion is a waist of time, but good learning experience.
EDIT: retested it and umm lost major climbing power, and some speed, so a motor upgrade is a must have now, lost some traction also, on the other hand it turns sharper than before and goes around corners a little faster.

im working on a racer.. basicly think mini, mini t

Actually comming along very nice, I put those Nikko Tires on, from the truck, so it can still go over things to, but the knuckles up front are being a pain in the ass, i may need slightly bigger tires.

That gives us a little more insight as to how the AWD was effecting the steering. Like Payaso said....some sort of diff would probably help.

Yeah a Diff really would help, but anybody know how to make one, lol

What are You doing to make it a racer? What do Nikko tires look like, never seen them before I don't think???? What mods do You plan on doing? And for people who do FET's and Biffs (can install them) which is cheaper biffs or FET's, are they the same things, and which one is easier to install? I know Hog didn't You say that You have a BIFF on Your MT?
Thanks

well i cut down the chassis A LOT, so its veery thing, and WAY lighter, the nikko tiers can be found in HOGS thread, i think he dualcelled his?
anyway's im stating to get made witht eh front again, its whats really pissing me off.
But now i think i got my camera to work again, so i may be able to ge tpics soon, or at least i hope.

dual SE batts
sorry there a little blurry




Im getting really short run times.Should I charge longer or get another adapter with higher ma output?I usually charge for around 2 mins.

Definately charge it longer. There is only one battery in an SE and I tend to double or triple charge just the one.

You got two in there, so its going to take at least 2x as long as a stock SE to charge.

I'm sure someone here could get more technical, but I think you just need to charge it longer.

I charged for 5 mins and only got a 2min run time.Could i have messed up the batteries when i soldered them?
