bieomax Posted July 11, 2017 Share Posted July 11, 2017 Made some 3.5mm female to 4mm male motor to esc cables for the old SP 17.5t brushless motor ive got.Fitted said motor to my Schumacher sst rally with a 24t>83t setup for the initial gearing test.So just awaiting an esc and tweak to the steering, and it should be ready for its new life as brushless.Sent from my HTC One M8s using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zannu Posted July 15, 2017 Share Posted July 15, 2017 Finally ot all 3 of my electric 1/10's working: The Speed Passion (in front) just needed the electrics properly velcroing down, and now it works very well. Also found it to be pretty durable. The left hand HPI Bullet Needed a new servo mount plate cut to fit better, and a few minor alterations. The Right hand HPI Bullet needed a new centre dogbone making, and again, a few other alterations. Also gave them all a good run, and now charging battteries ready for some more fun tomorrow. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spannermonkey Posted July 15, 2017 Share Posted July 15, 2017 Bashed them all. Spent a few hours up on the old coal screens and even introduced my dad to the world of RC.

Bix Posted July 16, 2017 Share Posted July 16, 2017 (edited) Another afternoon out with the boy yesterday If anyone is down south around the Brighton area, Stanmer Parks forest area is a cracking bashing spot! Glad we had two fully charged packs each as we were there for a good hour and a half and it was loads of fun!

bieomax Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 Flashed the firmware and installed the cheap tsky esc into the Schumacher sst rally, Seems almost seems silky smooth on brushless compared to the old reedy brushed that was in it. Plus seems quieter. Sent from my HTC One M8s using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spoke to them and quoted £28 for a gear to be made. Asked about pulleys too for belt converting and to have 2 those came in at £95. The bearing boys hostaform gears fitted with a minor mod I have a spare one for next time too. Think I can live with those for now at £7 each. If I can sell some stuff to cover it I'll be getting the pulleys from HPC at a later date 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
