New-buy Crawler I just receive my new allready built crawler: 1) GD-600 gear reduction unit with 9T pinions on both input & output shafts 2) Locked f & r 3) Cut chassis & raised transmission (5.5" of center ground clearance... see Coke can) 4) battery rotated 180 so it is now in front 5) re-located links (15.25" wheelbase) 6) T/E-Maxx driveshafts, to make # 5 possible 7) LONG aftermarket shocks with metal bodies & threaded pre-load adjusters 8) 'Cut-n Shut' Jumbo Kongs (3.25" wide, 7.75" tall) w/ narrowed Twin Force wheels and 1/2 lb. of BB's in each front tire 9) Hi Tec FM Tx & Rx, (1) 645MG servo (2ws), ROOSTER ESC, 1500 battery, single Trinity motor (Speed Gems2) I just bought 3000 batt and I only have 25 min runtime... Should I put 2x3000 batts? Should I put a better motor? Can I put more gear reduction? |
Re: New-buy Crawler YA wa we all saw it on EBAY. i will buy the kongs but thats it |
Re: New-buy Crawler What kind of rig? Turd; I don't think he is selling it? 30 minutes of run time is pretty average. Don't worry about the extra battery. Lathe motors will give you great run time, so will lots of reduction. |
Re: New-buy Crawler A Tamiya TXT-1. Here are some pics: http://www.printroom.com/ViewAlbum.a...lbum_id=190846 It is written speed gems2 on the motor..? Is it a good motor? So I should no put 2x3000 batt pack? Won't it help a little? |
Re: New-buy Crawler SR5 it is a txt that was on ebay, someone posted pics on the form. it looked cool the guy that built it is a member . i want the kongs if he sells them, just putting it out there. cool |
Re: New-buy Crawler I just receive it from UPS, and yes it was on ebay. I think I should keep the kongs if I want wheels under it :? ... To bad it's not 4ws... I plan doiing it soon. What will I need? wich servo? Remote? wiriing? |
Re: New-buy Crawler How does a TXT do with kongs? I'd think you would want a wider axle than that... |
Re: New-buy Crawler 30min. run time is BAD get a magnetic mayhems motor and run the gd-600 with a 15t and off the motor run a 3.8. your run time should get to about 45 min to 1 1/4 hr. |
Re: New-buy Crawler Also run a rx battery. and ditch the stock servo guard. Those things are gay! You might think about lowering the truck to around 4-4.5" of center clearence. It will help how much it rolls over. I've got 3.75" of CC and love it. |
Re: New-buy Crawler Sorry for my ignorance but what are magnetic mayhems motor and rx battery? |
Re: New-buy Crawler kyosho magnetic mayhem it is a motor that some people run on there crawler. the r/x batt. is something to help you run big servos. |
Re: New-buy Crawler It seems like my 645MG servo is not enough... I have a ridiculous turning radius :( . How much would be enough to turn Jumbo Kongs? |
Re: New-buy Crawler i use hitec hs-5745 it has about 250 tork and the hs-5735 is 265 of tork.but i dont know if they would work on a txt axle i use mine on xfator axle.you have a pm/messages to. |
Re: New-buy Crawler Can I add stroke to the servo? It seems like the servo don't have enough stroke for the steering arm. With no power on the servo have plenty of stroke but as soon as the power is back I dont have enough stroke even with no weight on....????? |
