Ya a touch to much... I use the tire height rule of thumb. Try to limit the flex to about a tire height worth of flex! Normally that performs super good! Looking good... I like the bec spot because it's low!

Here you go
Dual ESC Adapter (Proportional + Dig) for DX3R or 3PM-MX

stelerzman · 01-22-2011, 08:22 PM

great idea to hide the bec, how are you hidding all the wires, hope they dont get caught up in the links and springs. from my understanding, the articulation should be around 3/4 of the highth of the tire your using. i could be wrong though. thats where im set.

Jeepkid · 01-23-2011, 10:55 AM

Wires will be hidden well and shortened. I've been sick this week, so I feel I need to be 100% when I finish the wiring. I want it to look good and the rig and you guy deserve 100% clean wiring. Just want to show off my skills and ideas. It will change once I get my new radio.

Jeepkid · 01-23-2011, 12:15 PM

Okay, big update. I ordered a Futaba 4pl. I have read the 4pl setup, and Harley is great in the videos and damnit! I want a 4ch. HAHA.

Rootar · 01-23-2011, 03:23 PM

I stole your idea for the Bec i put mine in there the other day, only thing left in my chassis is 2 tekins and a little 614 futaba RX. Excellent idea!

The new software rocks

you will love it.

Jeepkid · 01-23-2011, 04:04 PM

I cant wait to get my hands on the 4pl. I will say that I am going to hold off on other stuff for a while, as I cant piss the wife off anymore.

PipeDreams · 01-23-2011, 06:03 PM

Ya I've been slowly selling my spare ax parts to put towards my xr. wedding and house isn't cheap so no extra cash for me either lol. But next up is 2 brxl and then my 4pl

2 brxl

good choice I love the castle software. I know people think they are to big but they fit great in me wedge chassis. I hope to get some pics up soon.

Jeepkid · 01-24-2011, 09:54 AM

Well today I should have my temporary novak dig to get her running. Will post pics of it when I get her all wired up. Waiting on the 4pl is going to be the hardest part. I will soon be ordering more VP wheels, and some more meats. Cant wait till the UGC Viper is out. I guess you can say I'm not done with this beast for a little longer.

Jeepkid · 01-24-2011, 03:16 PM

Okay wired everything up went to power it up nothing

I got red blinking lights on the esc's and no power the rx

Dont know what the hell is going on. Might have to ditch castle esc's for good. I'm just pissed right now, sorry for the delay in getting in running guys. I dont know what I am going to do.

Jeepkid · 01-24-2011, 07:14 PM

I got it! All wired up for the time being. 4pl I ordered was on backorder. Canceled the order and will wait a bit to order it. This setup should do for a week or two. Want to order a 4pl when they are setup right from the factory for MOA. I hear alot of ppl sending them out to be reprogrammed. I'm not one to get something and send it out. You now! Well here are thee picks of my 1 to 2 week wiring, so I rushed it a little too fast. Will be clean as FAH when I get a 4pl.

Couldn't resist digging onto the couch.

Gso125 · 01-24-2011, 07:28 PM

The 4pl is a great radio I got mine and sent it back for reprograming it only took about a week turn around it depends how quickly you send it to them. I set my losi stuff up in a few minutes but havnt hooked up my Xr electronics yet.

fred0000 · 01-24-2011, 07:51 PM

glad to see it going, looks really good so far, about time on the pics

best way to wire in a deans, both my rigs are like that, i'm ghetto and cheaped out, no daens plugs here, mini JST is the way to go

this way you dont have to de-solder the BEC to re-program it too, save's alot of headache I find.

rig looks good, needs some action shots though
