Wow! really nice mate! Did you fit them in the stock rims?

Fixed it mate, changed the position on the tx

Hey guys, im having the same problem, where exactly should I switch it?

Thanks Tug. i have a problem now, can't get my head around it...i got a nice price on the team orion programming box so i went for it. Downloaded the orion software which makes it even easier to change the settings. Also downloaded and installed the latest ESC firmware. The problem was when i went to test it...it inverted the motor...now the trigger is inverted. If i press forward (which used to be reverse, set at 25%) it goes forward at full speed and if i press back it goes backwards at 25%!! I think the ESC changed it when i upgraded it but can't i swap it back by changing the transmitter settings? I also tried to swap the motor cables, and change the motor rotation to clockwise. Doesn't change the fact that it still recognises it inverted... any thoughts?

Thanks Tug Looks like the forum is messed up with all your replies I have a feeling my questions will never end..so i'm sorry for that. This time is regarding maintenance. I've been taking my scorpion out a few times already and wanted to know how regularly should i apply some grease in the pinion and which grease do you guys use? Also, for the diff, how often should i change the oil and which oil is best (stock diff still..)? Not for now but one day it needs, which oil do you use for the shocks? Sorry for the list of questions..

Thanks guys, i only went to 32dp because modelsport stated it was the pitch of the stock 14T pinion.. Anyway, before getting another 16T i wanted to ask, since I'm using 4S, if it doesn't kill the acceleration. With the badlands i've been enjoying some wheelie stuff and I'm afraid the 16T that will be gone.. Btw, checked top speed, stock gearing and 4S, she made 38mph on dirt, not bad! How much more you reckon with 16T?

got a 16T from modelsport but it doesn't fit! http://www.modelsport.co.uk/?product_id=32010 5mm shaft and 32dp gear pitch...what did i get wrong?

yeah, she's still new so... Btw, i got badlands for the rear but it got me think about the fronts. Are you guys changing the fronts? I quite like the slim sand styled ones. which options would go with it? truggy ones won't look that nice in my opinion. Are there any other "dune buggy" options?

last bump, 24h to go!

daily bump!

that's weird..well, i got red shock socks, actually look better than i thought but i fear that nice red looking color won't last long,,

Thanks Tug! I'll try to check that out. Have a look at my new shock socks, probably gonna get all dirty in no time!

I'll get some badlands 3.8 for the rear but i was wondering if i could just buy the tires and mount them in the rear rims? i actually like the vintage look of the stock rims. Is the size the same? If not i'll just go for the desperados

Just reduced the reserve price on the ad it needs to go!

And it is a beauty! I'm definitely taking good care of mine and not thinking about getting rid of it anytime soon!

I will, but i'm wondering how to measure temps...any tips? Also i've been looking for a website that sells spares/tune-ups but most of the items in modelsport seem to be out of stock. I found this one : http://www.the-kyosho-store.com/dhtml/home.php Prices seem to be alright but shipping not so much. Do you happen to know a better one?

bump! 4 days left!

Thanks a lot! I'm gonna give it a go with 4S, if i'm not happy i'll go maybe 5S or 6S

guys, i saw it mentioned several times on the product description for the scorpion that you can upgrade it with an "optional 6S compatible ESC" which ESC are they talking about? Is it worth it to go for this mentioned one or would you recommend another 6S compatible ESC? Just getting curious, i still need to run mine on 4S

daily bump!

will do and i'll let you guys know!

i've just passed there, not a single person using the track..the place was deserted and i couldn't see anything on the usage of RCs... isn't the track free to use? do you reckon it would be a problem if i go there mid-week when there's nobody around?

damn..anything similar around?

Does it allow RC cars? Have you tried the one in Hayes? http://www.hawksbmx.co.uk/

Bump!
