hebby Posted July 8, 2014 Share Posted July 8, 2014 Ok first full 2s lipo and motor is hot but not as hot as I thought it would be You can obv see the motor is the odd ball as it even looks too small for the Trugggy but it wasn't smoking hot just hot.Now onto the lightweight outdrives and servo upgrade Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noj Posted July 8, 2014 Share Posted July 8, 2014 What're your thoughts on the overall feel of the plastics, turnbuckles etc? Does it feel like a tough basher? Is it worth the money? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hebby Posted July 8, 2014 Share Posted July 8, 2014 What're your thoughts on the overall feel of the plastics, turnbuckles etc? Does it feel like a tough basher? Is it worth the money? Personally the turnbuckles pop off too easy but I would rather pop a turnbuckle than snap an arm or an easy fix by upgrading the end cups As for the feel of plastic I can say it feels stronger than the mini 8 and almost 100% easier to work on Bash wise will be hard to say really as I only run a 2s pack upto now and all that happened was a turnbuckle popped off when clipped a curb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hebby Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 (edited) Well put 4x 2s packs through it and 3x 3s packs all within 5 mins of each other and apart from loosing a grub screw from a centre diff cup it's still going strong Grub screw was my own fault so can't complain and as for temps I wouldn't have said it was any different running a 3s than a 2s other than the speed WOW! It flies hahaha Edited July 9, 2014 by hebby Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
