    I have a Losi 8E that had a battery explode during practice, one day. Melted the body, the center diff front bulkhead, the radio box, and scorched the chassis...this was last summer and I'm still working on getting back to fighting shape.

    Opinios Or Rate My New Car

    IMO, I think the car is an epic fail...Too much plastic, even for a beginner basher. The whole concept of an 1/8th scale buggy is to be a rough and tough racer, and from a stock point, it is neither. Adding steel to the equation, no matter how much material removal is done, will still make it a...

    Proline Recoil Buggy Tires

    I'll have to try these out this season, when I get the 8IGHT-E back together...Ought to hook up nicely on my local track.

    Where should I put my MMM?

    In my Losi buggy, I have my ESC mounted on the battery tray plate, secured by the Traxxas MMM mount. The bad part about this mounting position is....I had a battery explode and it took the ESC out...which obviously ended my race (thank god the season was over). Sad day for sure, but the mount...

    Where should I put my MMM?

    I'd mount the receiver up top on the diff and put the MMM in the receivers current place...I'd rather replace a receiver than a MMM any day of the week. Just extend the wires.

    Coby's Brushless Conversion!

    Yea, I stretched them. they fit decent around the can, but the little black chrome spacers don't really do much. But the motor IS tight in the mount, that's for sure!

    Coby's Brushless Conversion!

    Put your purse down and stretch them, like I did. It's not easy, but it works.

    Coby's Brushless Conversion!

    Go with the MMM combo. It's been battle tested and proven tough. On 4S with 19/56 gearing, my E-Revo runs 50.8 mph and the temps never get above 150/160 on the motor and speedo. In fact, Coby, I got a pair of motor mount rings for the Savage Flux that will work with your truck. All you need is...

    Big ass batteries

    Your truggy must be hardcore. I'm running 2 flight-max 5000 30C 2S packs in my e-revo and averaging 25 minutes of run time, and my truck weighs around 12 pounds and uses the motor for braking. If your truggy setup has the capability of going with mechanical brakes, then you just upped the...

    Discharging NiMH AA's question

    I bought a couple of packs of RayoVac 2500MaH AA's awhile ago and haven't used them for some time. They seem to still hold a decent charge, but not like they were when they were new. I'm using the tray in my Futaba 3PM 2.4 transmitter to charge them on my charger and they charge fine at 2.5A...

    best radio

    I just bought a Futaba 3PM 2.4Ghz FASST Tx/Rx and I love it! The price was just right at 190.00.

    Discussion thread for 2009 RCNT Bash

    Never did I say that any of you were kids that wanna tear up the place. All I wanted to do was let anyone who didn't read the entire thread know and refresh everyone's memories. I apologize if that pissed anyone off, because that was not my intent. It was also never my intent to steal Josh's...

    Discussion thread for 2009 RCNT Bash

    I never said I was running this event. Never once. This was all said to me and I relayed it back. Don't get all salty about it. It's not that big of a deal to get your panties in a twist. This is still going on, this is still on the way, and it'll be fun. Lessen DID do the planning. I didn't do...
