Noj Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 The FF windows work a treat, although with the QR cage tubes, the rear won't fit.... Keep an incredible amount of clart away from the ESC and innards, but not grass. Nothing keeps grass out of badgers.... Nearly opted for the Uber nuts.....£32 a set is, imho, taking the mick though, they are merely enclosed nuts, after all.... Mike, check your thread re rear windows.

.AJ. Posted January 30, 2017 Author Share Posted January 30, 2017 Windows fit fine, also the nuts were £25 direct from Uber 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oh How Original Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 Looking forward to seeing this run and get dirty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noj Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 Sure the FF set had a rear upper window.....Hmmmmmm..... 25 quid is more reasonable I suppose.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.AJ. Posted January 30, 2017 Author Share Posted January 30, 2017 I never fit the roof the first time round, I'd rather have the top open so I can see down onto the ESC and keep an eye on it 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noj Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 (edited) Mate, if it decides to expire, I believe you'll see the smoke and flames to give an indication as to how it's doing, upper window or not.... When's the next outing planned? Thought: if you want to offload the stock nuts, drop me a PM Edited January 30, 2017 by Noj 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.AJ. Posted January 30, 2017 Author Share Posted January 30, 2017 I'm meeting up with H and co on Sunday, so probably take it then. I'm going to keep hold of stock nuts for now, its always good to have spares Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

.AJ. Posted February 1, 2017 Author Share Posted February 1, 2017 Decided to sack off the Bec in the XL2 and run a separate RX pack, I've had this iP slim shorty kicking around for ages and by luck it fits perfect in front of the 4s packs... Ive just ordered one of them fancy electronic RX switches, which I'll mount on top of the RX box Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How easy to wire this up then? ??the less stress on a xl2 the better Edited February 3, 2017 by evssv Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.AJ. Posted February 3, 2017 Author Share Posted February 3, 2017 Wire it up like you would a normal petrol. But remove the power wires from the cable for the ESC, so you only have the signal wire (yellow on the XL2) from the ESC going into the RX 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

.AJ. Posted February 3, 2017 Author Share Posted February 3, 2017 Yea, use a switch between the lipo and RX tho, I've just tried it out, but the ESC wouldn't arm with just the signal connected, I've got a bit of investigating to do now.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
