here's my setup:
2 FX-R
CC BEC
Futaba S9157
HH 35T
Dx6i with A6110 Rx
Sedona
Nova foam
Lipo Hyperion 1100mAh (and waiting for some 900mAh)

at this time I'm just waiting for my motor plate (a friend making the 9mm mod for me)







I gonna change the steering system too
and just want to know if HH need some break-in or not ??

ps: sorry I'm french so I can't explain all I want....

[dude26]

I'll say, I've never broke in any of my Holmes Hand wounds, and they are still kickin and running great after a couple seasons. BUT, I have broke in motors in the past dunking them in water for a few and they seem to do a little better than a non broke in motor of the same quality.

Better to do so, I think so. Necessary, not really.

[dude26]

thanks for the advice Reflection
so I don't break-in my motor due to the fact that HH said he done it

so a little update

BJ4 chassis
Big bore in front (and in few time in rear too...) w/ CO caps
Losi gold spring in rear
Front case mod
Losi wheels (and in few times some Eritex... )
add some weight in front but looking for putting my batt in place...

and just a little vid (I put this rock in my garden...so I can crawlin' everyday )





thanks

[EGRESSor]

nice playground

you may cut the tires for a bit more traction

[dude26]

thanks

for the BC I gonna cut them, but I want to test it like that and found a good foam combo ...and a good way to cut it

[EL DI@BLO]

Hello Dude

Je ne savais pas tu avais 2 ponts avants , je viens de les voir sur les photos , quelle est l'avantage ?

Nice crawler

[dude26]

hi Diablo

look at my build tread on french forum to see that ==> HERE

the advantage is more clearance, same geometry, and less binding for the shaft w/ the final gear (stock rear shaft is longer)
I always run the stock gear w/o any trouble

[kliff_klimber]

what foams did you like in your bc?s also how do you like the internal springs up front?

[CRAIGB]

How do you like the torque master sport motors?

[dude26]

hi

I don't really like the internal spring, a little too firm for my truck. so I use miniT spring now (much softer)

for the BC, I use Sedona foam in front and CI foam 5.5 soft/soft, and both on 1" Eritex wheel, I just cut my front tire, so maybe need more test...

for the HH I can't say because until now I used some Integy motor and this was on my old Super Clod based.
but this motor are really smooth and have a lot of torque

and now I gonna test 2 Brood LE 45T (w/ 2 microsidewinder)
I hope all is right for the SMC (I gonna try to go there)
