well im putting the Traxxas motor on shelf for a short while - and gonna run with the donor Losi 4700kvh, just because of the fact - its looking like the motor could be killing everything Why cant castle max the mamba max again - it was a cracking ESC Ziggy

Battery runs pretty cool tbh... Sent from my GT-I8190N using Tapatalk

Bump Talk offers if that helps Ziggy

In 1 revolution of the crank you will get 2 power strokes = double the power (torque) Rpm will not be affected in the increased department, probably loweres due to double resistance from compression and double friction Itd be cool but probably not viable... in an rc Sent from my GT-I8190N using Tapatalk

I thought Hobbyking was alright lol maybe not? 100A maxed motor with a 120A Constant ESC (480Amp Burst) The esc in thoery shudda been perfectly happy with it.... But the Suspect ""bad motor"" Ran perfectly fine for 5 1/2 packs If it was "bad" it'd be from the word go maybe the lipo is the issue? could be - but again why would appear to be faulty after 5 1/2 packs from last one? Eitherway - confirmed dead esc, losi motor's replicating same fault.... Ziggy

It did the same thing on the castle with traxxas or losi motor's i've got Swapping to losi as we speak Ziggy

Photobucket finally uploaded - right after i posted typical.... http://vid209.photobucket.com/albums/bb272/Ziggy122-Hyper/20160601_131619.mp4 Ziggy

Well its doing it again... ffs The old Castle ESC died a cogging death (overheating within 1minute) So i got a new ESC Hobbyking Xcar 120A Esc Been fine for about 4 runs Went for a run today - and it was great for 5mins, then suddenly, no power, and coggy start.... Loss of brakes and suddenly no reverse.... So the info Hyperion 3s 4000mah, 25c Traxxas Veloine 3500KVH motor Hobbyking 120A X-car esc 4mm Bullets Traxxas connector Car powers up fine - Fan nice and fast - Steering okay... (Video coming - Photobucket been slow to upload) Ziggy

i listen to the engine sound Once i've got the sound i wanna hear and i've got some smoke = me happy If i wanna double check - i'd throw a temp guage on it too Ziggy

8years old... that would be like Byron Generation 1 lol Were on Byron Race Gen 2 now... (wonder when 3 will hit?) Give it a good shake to ensure its all mixed - i know the methane can easily leak out of an unsealed bottle.... Ziggy

A good spray and possible lacquer to stop it chipping so easily But tyres always get the ""kerbed"" effect without too much effort really Ziggy

Go 1 of 2 ways about it then Get a faster RPM engine - which will give you more speed - but possibly loose a little on acceleration or go for a bigger torque engine and gear it up Tbh if your after like a lightning blistering fast car - time to go electric.... Also - what % nitro are you using in the current engine? Ziggy

Where the video? I cant see a link / embeded video Sent from my GT-I8190N using Tapatalk

Brought from the USA for my trusty Mamba Max, as the plastic had gone brittle and pulled its threads out However - not long after the ESC died of a Cogging-itus So it never recieved its new case... Was gonna flog it to my brother, but his is showing signs of dying so i need rid... I paid £15 delivered from the US Looking for £15 delivered UK only Not really sold on here - but it dont shift i will try old E-bay Ziggy

Chopping new models is okay But to be worthwhile u need to be fast on the ball... I brought a trophy early version and split it up and shoved it on ebay Some parts took months and months to sell.... Some sold like hot cakes Engine tyres shell shocka sold quick... Small things like wings body and other bits didnt sell quick As a lone seller non buisness I did make a profit at the end.... Sell right and its totally do-able Sent from my GT-I8190N using Tapatalk

Doom56 - Bubbles - Rc Sammy - Hoss - Mr T - Euan - Loads of oldies that i remember, but dont come on no more Nos Monkeys video's were funny at first, but he got way tooo carried away about it... Ziggy

Mansfield - As in Nottinghamshire? Good look finding a decent Hobbyshop The 2 one that did exsist Elite RC - Closed down about 10 - 15 years ago and became a hair saloon Ben Racing - Closed down about 10years ago ish, without any warning.... The Nearest place is sutton in ashfield - But tbh its more of a gun centre now vs car hobby shop Ziggy

Helps if you put where you are tbh... Ziggy

Been a member for years. .. the forum gas had its up and downs.... Its a shame that its soo quiet compared to what I remember - some people just want help Some just want to socialise, some like to jist read Msuk has always been a great place, ruined by a few people when it got hacked, scammers getting multiple people but it keepa going thats for sure...

You sir by the sounds of it sound like you need todo an engine sealing Basically using a sealant you seal the engine up to stop air leaks and stop the fuel leak out Make me wonder if the seals have failed on yours.... which sealing putty shud cure But means engine stripping takes longer as you have to reseal Ill see if I can find the guide with it on Ziggy Sent from my GT-I8190N using Tapatalk

We once worked as a single country - chances are we can do it still but i do think rough times will enslay.... Ziggy
