i can solder on some traxxas connectors if you like or make you an adaptor. i think i have a spare male deans i could front you.
Thanks man! I was thinking about making a couple of adapters. I figgure my next few lipos will come from VH and I've wanted to switch over to Deans anyways... after a few small lipo purchases it'll be worth it to swap all the esc's.

That sucks about the snatch block!

Right, 5 years ago I chose my Rustler because it came with a MaxAmps 3s 4200mah
I can't remember the exact price but it was over $300 and after a month of research I thought it was a bargain! (my progression of emotions after buying said 3s MaxAmps)

That sounds like me alright but this thing is supposed to do lke 45 mph on 4S. I've never owned an RC that goes that fast. I need to get used to 45 before I try 60+.

What does the sensor do in a brushless motor? I've never had one. Do I need to upgrade from my $35 flysky tx to run this thing?

Edit: I googled the sensor. I got it now. Dumb question.

Finally took Heap apart and cleaned all the mud off from the last event. After its bath it is soaking in CLP gun oil over night. Tomorrow i will blow it off with the compressor, wipe it down, and get it ready for some new parts.


Sigh....then after sunday its time to tear it all down again.

That was really fast for him!

I've got a 25T Torquemaster Pro that he just rebuilt and sent back to me that I'm going to list in the classifieds for $50 ($55 shipped) if anyone is interested before I do.

anyone remember that thing I posted in the private section a while back about the aluminum "faces" I was making to replace the rc4wd steel wheel faces? well, I got them mounted up and here's a couple of pictures...







eh.. nothing too exciting. they are pretty plain like an old centerline wheel or something. It's just an aluminum piece that bolts on instead of the steelie on one side or both. I just have them on the outsides though. I have black delrin ones too. The bead doesn't quite seat right for some reason so, I used a little CA glue for assistance. they are different I guess.

Looks good, I've always liked the solid wheel... I think they'd look really cool with a little more detail. Maybe a lip on the inside (or an outer ring) with dummy hardware.
