Oh, one last thing. Anyone know where I can find a small 3c Lipo? Something like they use in the mini heli's. Only thing is, it needs to handle the amp draw of the revolver & BEC.

| 3s or 3c? 3c is usually a pretty hefty battery JRH has some vislero 1350's, 7.4v i think its pretty suitable for comp use, im gonna try a 3s 2100 11.1v i gotta get a better charger though.

It's a roller now. I used HL driveshafts w/a Jugg universal on one end, it's 6mm so it slides right on the maxx diff. Also, jugg springs in the shocks w/80wt oil, they seem alittle stiff but I'll test them out. I also have the shocks from my hustler to test with.

I was very surprised with how well it did. It made a section no one else could do. But, it did stuggle in some places everyone else made. The breakover is really bad, the tires just didn't droop enough. Reason being, those Jugg springs I used in the shocks. Those are coming out & the RCP internal springs are going in. There was no torque twist at all & it was very stable. I'd bet it side hilled with the best of them. Another thing I'll do is grind off those nub things on the leading edge of the maxx diffs. Also, don't mind the batteries on the rear axle, that was just to run it. I don't have my batteries yet from JRH. Here's some more pics. |
