Here she is
Aussie dollar sux.
I got a couple of hop-ups as well, GPM LST shocks and IRC conversion
as well as XL axles and Integy rear carriers. Yes I know Integy, we'll see.
I fitted the carriers and axles.
I'm not to impressed with the stock hex. Is there a 17mm conversion for the XL? One that doesn't fall apart every time you take the wheel off and has 17mm nuts.
With the IRC conversion kit I am trying to keep it as low as possible, so I'm not going to use the inner mounting points on the arms,
(The spring retainers are touching the braket on the arms, so I'll need to shave a little off the ends of the brackets and it should be fine)
or the outer points on the towers. But I need 20mm longer screws.
Going with the Axial beadlocks and Big Joe's. 4 of the stock tyres are the same width as 3 of the joe's, damn their wide.
Now to my questions. I've never had electric RC's so I know absolutely FA.
The leads from the motor, can I just unplug them from ESC? I'd like to run the battery leads under them to make it tidier
Are PolyQuest LiPo's a good quality battery? I'm think of getting some of there 6000mah packs. Don't know wether to go 2S or 3S though.
If I go with the 3S is it possible to program the ESC so it's not a drivetrain destroying beast, and have 2S performance with longer run times.
I going to use my 3PM 2.4 TX, do I program the ESC same way with 3PM RX, the same as I would with the HPI RX?
I had some other stuff I wanted to know about, but can't think of it right now so I'll post more questions when I think of them.
Thanks guys.
