Noj Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 That'll do the job fine. Stick to 4s though 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mond Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 The MMX has the 20 amp BEC in it, so if the price is the same, I'd get the MMX. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vandalbulldog Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 One more thing, 2200kv or 2650kv would you say?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mond Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 I used 2200 and 4S and it was good fun but I think Noj went with a 2650. Either would work. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vandalbulldog Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 Great. I'm only going to be using 4s and not looking for speed, more for grass and dirt... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flashdaniels Posted February 9, 2016 Author Share Posted February 9, 2016 (edited) So the inevitable happened and I cracked on through the build forgetting to take photos and not updating the thread! I knew it was gonna happen J This is going to be a pic heavy update and I will start with the rest of the build photos. Like I mentioned before I just ploughed on so I didn’t get photos for the complete build. The build itself went fairly straight forward all in all. Obviously the manual is pretty challenging at some points, you need to just follow the drawings which I also thought weren’t great (the only thing I can compare them to are Tamiya manuals). My plastic bags had loose bits inside and I think I was left with 2/3 spare screws after the build, only little issues but it always nice to have a bit of spare hardware. But overall I enjoyed the challenge and the build and would happily do it again! Although I almost certainly can’t afford to!!! The Castle 1515 series 2200kv motor. The building of the shocks was one of my favourite parts of build. Just the size of them made it a pleasant task. I followed the manual and put 30wt up front and 10wt at rear And finally a finished chassis Edited February 9, 2016 by flashdaniels 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
