Daneo Posted May 7, 2016 Share Posted May 7, 2016 Sorry to butt in, just reading through this while upgrading my own one, is that motor cooling fan standard, mine didn't come with one of those..? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No it's not, it's a hobbyking one, but it's quit working so I've removed it for the moment. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TMaxxDave Posted May 7, 2016 Author Share Posted May 7, 2016 Colour sample for the new body. Sent from my Galaxy S5 Neo Paint isnt suitable and cracks under flexing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TMaxxDave Posted May 9, 2016 Author Share Posted May 9, 2016 I'm my quest for more speed, I've got a 2400kv motor which is approx a 17t motor, as it falls between 16.5t and 17.5t, it's a Team Orion out of the Kyosho DRX VE, which is a 1/9th scale, hopefully it won't rip my diffs to bits, I just need them to hold out for a few months Sent from my iPad Air using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ostewart Posted May 9, 2016 Share Posted May 9, 2016 I'll be running 4-pole 3800kv Hobbywing motors in my TT-01's, lets see how long they last. The 4250kv motor was a little insane, way too fast for the chassis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chewbacca Posted May 9, 2016 Share Posted May 9, 2016 I've just opened an account at RC Mart. Will be running a Quicrun sensored can with a TBLE02 in my TT02 build. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TMaxxDave Posted May 9, 2016 Author Share Posted May 9, 2016 I'll be running 4-pole 3800kv Hobbywing motors in my TT-01's, lets see how long they last. The 4250kv motor was a little insane, way too fast for the chassis. Ran 3800kv in my TB-01. Rather quick but killed the rear bevel gear into the rear diff within 2 months. But its not the best design to be honest. Sent from my Galaxy S5 Neo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TMaxxDave Posted May 10, 2016 Author Share Posted May 10, 2016 Got the 2400kv can. Bigger than the torqur tuned. Removed the rx box. Fitted the alloy motor mount. Fot the motor. Fit the rx box stood up on its side. Programmed the ESC to run brushless. Didnt know that the ESC wouldnt run a sensorless motor. Looks pretty. Wont move. New plan. Save up for a sensored brushless. Fit sport tuned motor out of shelf queen impreza. Sent from my Galaxy S5 Neo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TMaxxDave Posted May 11, 2016 Author Share Posted May 11, 2016 I remember now. I hate spraying, i suck at it I hate cutting out bodies, i suck at it. I dislike decals. Im ok at them. I love the chassis and mechanical side of RC. Bodies and detailing..... not so much. Sent from my Galaxy S5 Neo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
