Personally I think parts for the X are quite reasonable considering its size Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

atom3624 Posted July 23, 2016 Share Posted July 23, 2016 (edited) I still like this one - well I would, it's mine!! Previous 'option' look - just too big. I quite liked it but the gearing is pretty ridonculous!! Probably good for 80-90 mph if it could stay on the ground. Al.

mydoddy69 Posted July 23, 2016 Share Posted July 23, 2016 (edited) Got the new fans installed trimmed the sides down as well so when it's fitted I can actually see the motor to get a better temp reading, plus it's not cover the heat sink as much now so will allow better air flow and how it looks from the top, no different really other than now I don't have to have an all fight to get it fitted lol Another bonus to trimming the sides Edited July 23, 2016 by mydoddy69 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noj Posted July 23, 2016 Share Posted July 23, 2016 How easily did the old fans come out doddy? Any other mods to the shroud to seat them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mydoddy69 Posted July 23, 2016 Share Posted July 23, 2016 They where a bit fiddly to get out but a bit of patience a bit of poking here and there and they popped out ..The tornado just push fit back in I removed the wires out of the little tap slots but other than that no mods required You can feel the air flow now unlike before I'll give them a test tommrow up against my other with the stock fans running the same gearing lipos and at the same spot.. Then will see if they make a difference or not 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atom3624 Posted July 23, 2016 Share Posted July 23, 2016 I have a Dream!!! http://www.ebay.com/itm/X-Maxx-/152178352584?hash=item236e8961c8:g:C6kAAOSwqfNXk5hp Now I know how much mine's worth ... and more with the motor / ESC I have ... but the harsh reality check that is RC should ring true - never get more than a fraction back of the investment!!

atom3624 Posted July 23, 2016 Share Posted July 23, 2016 Anything over 1.1 - 1.2 k is too expensive, no matter what is inside. Probably got 'rumbled' by the wife and told to sell it!! Al. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

atom3624 Posted July 23, 2016 Share Posted July 23, 2016 Exoskeleton - reminds me of something - er, Traxxas - Summit!! That's the 'X' again - bringing out a lot of different approaches - marmite even. Agreed the idea's a good one, the application is a bit rough! Al.

atom3624 Posted July 24, 2016 Share Posted July 24, 2016 I hate it when I'm having a 'lazy moment' and trying forcing it out, then realising it's only getting more and more tightly wrapped around the drive axles ... hope you got it sorted quickly.

Kpowell911 Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 It's no secret I'm not Kershaw's biggest fan they seem quite basic, un professional and budget for me, yet they charge a fortune for their stuff, but what the hell are they getting at with these combos? http://kershawdesigns.com/BrushlessSystems-KD-HVSystems.htm 22s 30.7bhp in a truck that just about handles the stock set up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
