REVO-5309
Hardcore RCTalk User
Here is my completed revo 4.6. originally was going to go with a picco 26 but they couldnt get there act together for over 3 months while i had it on back order. i called up picco motors them selves and they couldnt get there act together and follow through on there dates they gave me.
so i went with the lrp motor as it was bigger and also a bit cheaper. i did tho have to buy another engine mount from new era as i already bought the picco mount. so the BB mount had to be shipped over too. i did also have the buku 1/10 clutch that was going to go on the picco but went with the M2C clutch instead.
everything went together reasonably well. did tho have to cut some bits of the roll bar and use the original (stretched) return spring instead of the one that came with the new era kit. but its all working well, just took it out then for 3 laps up the street and it started without heating up, idles perfect straight away which i was very happy with. had to lean out the LSN a touch to get it to move tho as it kept stalling on me. will be completing the break in later today.
i did notice tho, at 1/4 throttle it was moving about the same speed as i had the gearing before (14/40 at full throttle) and now its running 17/36. should go pretty fast...
