Too late, I just bought it ;) Just kidding that would be mean.
Looks good other than the bright yellow wheels...

Shocks, metal diff lockers, servo, servo plate, bent links... all things that you would upgrade on a new one right away anyways so its nice that the basic mods are already done.

LOL I LIKE the yellow!! My boyfriend thinks they need to be relaced too. He has already found some he wants to get. Looks like they might have to go.

I havent ever used the mini so Im very very excited!! Plus I just got the tracking number so it's on the way!!

I use my boyfriend Super Crawler and have a blast with his.

RCKitten 04-06-2011 03:28 PM

ITS HERE!!!! I took all the stickers off the body and once my boyfriend gets home we can work on it together and get it running!!

RCKitten 04-16-2011 01:58 PM

Ok due to everyones urging I got new wheels :lmao: They look MUCH MUCH better, you everyone was right!! Now we just need to install the Brushless system that we got, get the lipo set up and I will finally be able to run the little monster!

I also took off the stickers that were all over the body it looks so much better! I am thinking of getting a cage and painting that pink.

Tiff

Ikaikas Kitten!!! <3

My first introduction to crawling was with an MRC, so I have a bit of a fondness for them. Good luck with it, and post up the changes you make "thumbsup"

RCKitten 04-16-2011 02:12 PM

Will do!! I will take some pics tonight, I'm pretty proud I did the wheels and tires once my boyfriend showed me what to do I did more of the work :) As a girl with little to no experiance except with racing dirt bikes and snowmobiles I think that I am catching on pretty quick. The tires were streached out a bit from being on those wheels that were too big but I got them on the new wheels with some glue :)

I have a 2.4ghz We put a castle BEC in it and have the Holmes Mini. It will run fine then will stall before it accually goes foward. That's the best way I can describe it. We were thinking that maybe the Motor is going out? I don't know :( (sad face) It was running just fine after putting the Castle in it then all of a sudden it went weird on us.

sounds like either the BEC went bad or possibly its wired wrong. check the wiring on the bec make sure you have the red wire from the ESC either cut or pulled from the connector and try that if its already disconnected try hooking it back up to see if that fixes it. i have to run mine with a UBEC and the internal BEC in the ESC or mine glitches like that too.

Thanks for the suggestion we tried that and we are going to get a new ESC. The man thinks he may have fried it when he soldered it.

He ADMITTED that to you??? Wow...you guys must be young. Us older cats woulda said something like, "yea sweetie...the flux capacitator arched over the 2.1 jigawatt ceiling...causing the shiboobity relay to dechargify at the stinkerpin junction. All in all baby...taint MYYY fault!!!"

asw27x 06-04-2011 10:09 AM

i ran a bec on mine and it kept stalling and then i noticed the esc was getting really hot im running a hitec 7955tg and i took the bec out and have it run off of just the internal one and i does not stall out of get hot it might be the bec or the esc is not happy with how much power ur pulling through it
