Tug Posted January 13, 2010 Share Posted January 13, 2010 ROFL love that!!! As I say, sadly not my quote, but damn funny. Got your brushless yet? I see you've changed your profile to say it's brushless, that might be breaking the rules you know!? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jim101092 Posted January 13, 2010 Share Posted January 13, 2010 I reckon the RC companies are playing the weather lately - I've had a tiny diddy little package on order for about a week and a half now (well, before the snow) and it's still not shown up. The main roads are fine and all you need is a little postie to come walk down your road and hey presto, your package is there. Might just be in customs, Guns, 'held up' by this weather (a slight cheeky laugh there as i know you've sold your EVX2, so no playing in the snow for you! ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jim101092 Posted January 13, 2010 Share Posted January 13, 2010 I will! lol - Took it out earlier...it ran away!? :S Was on spektrum so should've kicked in. Faulty ESC i'm thinking. Anyway, tbh Simon, i think the 80A will be just fine in your 3906 - It's a bit smaller than the 3905 hence a bit lighter, and on LiPO power, i don't think it'll struggle much (if at all). Still, it's prone to getting hot and underperforming, so i'll quote Guns for you: "Buy expensive, buy once". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jim101092 Posted January 16, 2010 Share Posted January 16, 2010 You should be able to use the stock mounting plate providing you dremmel it a bit to allow enough spacing between the holes to mount the motor. It's the same kind of spacing found on a 775 motor, and people have successfully fitted a Titan 775 to their E-Maxx's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamesChatz Posted January 16, 2010 Share Posted January 16, 2010 I think you need to find a way to cover up the gearbox, to stop crap going in it. Can you stop asking the same question repeatedly too, people will answer it eventually. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simon burrows Posted January 16, 2010 Author Share Posted January 16, 2010 you mean were the spur gear is or the main drive shaft under the chassisthere a plate on it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kpowell911 Posted January 16, 2010 Share Posted January 16, 2010 Your motor mount has 2 holes for titans. Mount the brushless in one of them and cover the other hole somehow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kpowell911 Posted January 16, 2010 Share Posted January 16, 2010 (edited) this is what i used to run on mine: Which isnt cheap but can be found here http://www.rc-monster.com/proddetail.php?prod=gmx07-mt&cat=17 On the cheap you could find out if this fits the 3906 http://www.fastlanem...FLM10010&cat=15 That took me 1 minute in google....

Tug Posted January 17, 2010 Share Posted January 17, 2010 You will fit the motor straight in, no probs, but cover the 2nd hole, a bit of insulation tape will do just fine. Don't over tighten the slipper though, those motors have weak rotors, tend to snap quite easily. Not replaceable either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tug Posted January 18, 2010 Share Posted January 18, 2010 1 red, 1 black lead, so you'll need to make a series connector. Dead simple. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
