Anyone into R/C?

What's wrong with overkill? Makes it more fun, IMO.

Plus mjb's is plug and play, no soldering as you do with Novak.

Edit: I don't think the Novak need soldering.

 

broken parts

 

i dont think 4pole is over kill.

HERE is overkill
my 2560kv 6 POLE trackstar motor in my 2wd buggy





compared to the 4 pole motor. (see how it sits inside the rpm motor guard?)

 

Broken parts are going to happen regardless...

 

And lighter as well, resulting in less unsprung weight.

 

Hmm, well I'm between that and a Castle sv2 setup. I'm kind of still leaning towards the castle, honestly. I plan on running 2s LiPo 70% of the time but I'd like to run a 3s when I want too. I want it to be wicked fast.

 

The toro set up is capable of handling 2s or 3s lipo

 

Where can I find the "real" Deans?

I always thought of Deans as a style...shows how much I know.

hobby shops, Tower hobbies, A-main hobbies...

It has kinda became a generic name for that style of connector. You'll know if they are the Deans brand, cause it'll piss you off when you pay for them, the're higher than giraffe pussy.

 

^ Nice. I neeed to get a wheelie bar for mine. Is that 2s or 3s?

 

all 2s. 5000mah 20c sky lipo on these runs. and im not running a wheelie bar haha

 

My wraith is soooo much fun. Just remember the servo kind of sucks. Mine went out in a week and I started to break my plastic link around the same time. So BUY parts. Lol

 

Really?! Damn, you must have some good throttle control! I always flip over when I wheelie lol

 

I found them, and I see what you mean now. They actually say Deans on the package, versus another brand.

I just picked up 10 male and 10 female - they are definitely pricier than I was expecting!

Also just picked up some Hudy tools, and miscellaneous parts for the SCX10 and Blitz...I don't even want to add up what I've already spent on these damn things...

haha nope no wheelie bars this thing is just very consistent and smooth.

 

Yea I've read about those problems. I'm hoping to get a kit of some sort so I can learn a bit more about it as I piece it together. The ax10 we got is my first "real" rc I've ever dealt with.

 

The wraith was mine. I got the rtr one just because I wanted to drive it NOW.

Plus the direction on how to put it together is really confusing. There is no really direction just pictures. Maybe the kit has more detailed instructions. Not sure thought.
When I put my new motor, esc, servo and VP links in, I had to wing it.
I got sooooo frustrated at it. I wanted to run it over with the taco at one point. Lol.

There is a lot of support on The RCcralwer forum though which helps a lot

 

Sounds to me like it's just dragging on the rear cage, not allowing it to flip over.
