    Sunset Bash Session - A (not so) romantic promenade

    Thanks man! It's been a while I ran my Savage unfortunately, with the winter here I haven't had the guts to throw it in the snow and risk water-damaging stuff or rusting parts… actually I initially planned to but I got lots of other things to worry about and did not find time to waterproof...

    Sunset Bash Session - A (not so) romantic promenade

    Thanks for the feedback! Yeah I know the pics are a little big. That was a while ago; now I resize my pics to be even smaller for the forum.

    Sunset Bash Session - A (not so) romantic promenade

    Cool! :) The camera we used to film this is a Nikon D90. In fact it's more of a photo camera than a video camera: there is no automatic focus and other useful video features are lacking. My friend did do an awesome job filming with it though!

    Form's OFNA linkage setup

    If it's too quick to see then it must be good heh! :P jk I'm 100% positive this is better (more linear response) than the "traditional" OFNA throttle mod (4 bends in the throttle rod to go around the "roll cage") which introduced a lot of lag because the rod was bending before kinda getting its...

    Parallel NiMH packs charging = good idea?

    I agree their answer was clear, but I would have liked a bit more info about WHY it would damage the packs to do this… how does the charger react? Does it overcharge the maxed out pack until the non-full one is fully charged? Does it undercharge the non-full one, stopping at the point where...

    Parallel NiMH packs charging = good idea?

    Ok here's the update: Me: I'm wondering if it's possible to charge two NiMH 6-cell 1200 mAh battery packs (the stock Mini E-Revo ones) IN PARALLEL on my Dynamite Vision Peak Ultra. I'm guessing that it would be possible to charge the two packs at once using the Traxxas parallel adapter...

    Parallel NiMH packs charging = good idea?

    Yep that was pretty informative frddyj, thanks! My goal actually is to plug both my batteries in the charger in the morning (there's still someone at home, so no fire hazard in case something goes wrong) and have them charged when I come back from work without requiring someone to watch the...

    Parallel NiMH packs charging = good idea?

    What about the charger's cell count & peak detection? Do you think it would still detect 6 cells and stop charging at the right moment with two batteries?

    Parallel NiMH packs charging = good idea?

    So parallel charging would not be a good idea in my case because of the number of total cells in my packs (12) being too high for the number of cells supported by my charger (8) ONLY, or…? I mean if my charger did support 12+ cells would it be OK or not, and why? What about the two...

    Parallel NiMH packs charging = good idea?

    30 minutes?? I charged my 1200 MAh packs at 1A (they recommend .3A for battery life and 1.2A max for performance) and it took 1h30… What's 1C?

    Form's OFNA linkage setup

    Yep, as I said the ball was too big for the OFNA cup so I had to grind it else it would not fit at all. In the end it has a better fit than the OFNA one, without any binding at all.

    Form's OFNA linkage setup

    I did a version of the OFNA linkage mod and was not satisfied with the results. The throttle linkage was bending a lot and that introduced some lag when pressing the throttle, plus it was not that precise in general due to the bendy throttle mix arm. Here is my new take on the OFNA linkage mod...

    Parallel NiMH packs charging = good idea?

    Just got myself an electric and two identical battery packs for it. I was wondering if parallel charging is a good idea or not with NiMH packs. I got a parallel adapter for plugging both batteries in the truck so I would use this if parallel charging can be done. Also, what settings should I...

    Hex drivers?

    Got the Losi metric set last week… can't tell you anything on their long-term durability but the build quality is awesome, looks very high-end compared to my previous Skya set that I bought on eBay for 10$. Worked great so far and with the ti-nitride coating I guess they will last a long time...
