R46 Posted June 28, 2011 Author Share Posted June 28, 2011 opinion on the motor compared to the castle ones? Mamba motors I have are cm20s,cm26,cm36 no 1/8 yet, nor have i actually used this trackstar fully yet, build an finish very good for the money (haven't opened it tho) from having run of toro8 system i know motor be strong an ready an runs cool Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R46 Posted July 8, 2011 Author Share Posted July 8, 2011 (edited) hyper 8 batts on route so soon get full test Mini st now has a motor, working on esc placement which won't be hampered by shell roof, span top plate made up round (opposite to how in pics) which has helped me just need to get dimensions of space so can decide on which esc to get.

danmc Posted July 13, 2011 Share Posted July 13, 2011 My staffy is exactly the same with my cars, chases them till he can't run no more but if he actually catches it he just stands there and barks. Gives it the odd nip or punch/stamp but doesn't attack it, just loves playing 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
