So my Velineon 380 motor arrived from the US today and only cost me

Hi Guys Ebay have the Velineon 380 motor on sale with free delivery from the US for only

Great mod !! I need to do it

Im running a 10T pinion, everyting else is stock.... Was running it round the back garden on very short grass last night with the top off to hit them temps. I read on this string that there is a termal cut out, at waht temp do you recon that will kick in?

Well I took mine back to the shop after it decided to go mental all by itself, all parts replaced FOC 4 x 3s batteries through it and the motor is still running hot 178 F the ESC 115 F and batter pack 85 F. Tonight's issue: No reverse!! forward and brake work fine but can't reprogram the ESC to have reverse, no big issue but yet another little issue to resolve. Cant complain about the shop the guys there are great. Put some new wheels on the car and it pulls some wheelies !!

Glad you've got yours sorted, you'll have to post some pics soon, then I can mod mine up. At the moment mine is looking a bit sorry for itself ha ha

OOOOH Well its all gone wrong tonight !!! 4th time out and it started with the cars AVC not running well. I picked the car up of the floor and when you moved it left to right the wheels moved but the motor kicked in at full speed and when centred they stopped

Losi actually recommend the 11t pinion but M/Sport had non in stock so went for the 10t Need a cooling head and now sat here considering the 2S pack

Ok so quick update

I ordered the towers from Modelsport when ordering the pinion, I rang the ordering in and was taking to the guys on the phone and they said they had one in so I though sod it and its on its way lol

Thanks for all the advice, I've ordered a new 10t pinion. That should be here on Thursday along with the new carbon fibre shock tower for the front and rear

So I did not dare run the 3S today, put the stock battery in and it suffer badly from cogging

Was told just let it cool down between runs!

No Stock gearing, bought it and never changed the gearing but will be doing now

Hi Guys So i picked up my Mini 8ight T yesterday and took it out for a run this morning, I slapped in the stock battery and ran it round the garden, left it to cool down for a couple of hours while i took the wife shopping. When i came home in went the 3s 11.1v and ran it up and down the street for a few fast passes
