    Build my shopping cart... Brushless related...

    HPI will probably not be able to recommend a motor for you. The great users and threads in this forum will most likely answer your questions. My .02 , the fan works and should be a help for the summer. The 10awg is way good enough, 12awg is what most might use. Not sure even with your DB17...

    Flux/Brushless Battery Setups

    No Problems! Hey Frddy, I was very confused back then...I love this setup, no probs GREAT runtimes! I got rid of those 'tabs' and use two pcs Velcro per side. It takes an extra few seconds to seat the 3s 6500 in (tray opposite motor) but it fits for sure. Also I do put small pcs hard...

    Flux Questions

    1). What parts should i upgrade to aluminum once i start breaking them? Rear hub carriers and shock caps are the only thing I found necessary. Leave the rest flexible! I wish I had vids of some of the tumbles I've taken and broken nothing! 2). How good are the stock shocks, can they be...

    Battery boxes

    5S Is definitely the sweet spot as far as I'm concerned. Yes, same brand, mah & C and I use "Sync Mode" charging so the ESC see's the 5 cells as one battery. (I think this is how it works) Not sure if you can run 5S without using a "Sync Charge" capable charger?

    Battery boxes

    I run a 3s 6500 Hyperion GX3 (paired with a 2s 6500, I find 5s to be the sweet spot) and it barely fits width-wise with a slight squeeze out...If I turned my boxes around, I could never fit this pack as I couldn't expand the compartment easily...and yes, good velcro is needed to hold lid down.

    How the HECK do you keep the body looking good?

    Upper Skid Plate ;-) Pope..great line.. Here's what I did with my stock body to help lessen the roof wear from those 30+ feet parking lot roof slides :crazy: I already skid two holes on the rear end corners so I'll add a strip there also. What is this stuff? I like several others on...

    Is 6S a natural progression?

    your LVC is per cell, mine's set to 3.2 just to be safe and not 3.0 (the default on stock ESC)

    Is 6S a natural progression?

    I have just fitted the hyperion 3s 6500 35c battery in the stock box. It's very snug but will stay in well with some velcro... I have paired this on the motor side with a hyperion 2s 6500 35c and will run 5s with it...I will post opinions after charger arrives and I try it. As long as your...

    Flux/Brushless Battery Setups

    OK I have a problem already....I got the hyperions in the mail today and the 3s 6500 will not fit the tray!...I had not considered this when ordering....If I remove a battery box and turn it around, I can fit it in and almost close the top (Velcro straps will keep it from falling out) My...

    Flux/Brushless Battery Setups

    Thanks! and Thanks for all info I've glommed {sic} from these threads... I sure will let you know, but it's a safe bet that 5s(18.3v) at 35c will blow me away compared to the 19.2V of NiMH :rock:
