Is the CAW extended chassis any good? I have heard about it but don't no if it is worth getting.

Anybody?? I am thinking about getting the CAW chassis so I can use HS-81 servos, or I am going to use the JR241's.

I'm not going to use my mlst again until christmas. I need so much junk just to get it running. And Even after I do that I bet you i'm going to be stripping diffs again.

I need:
esc
2 servos
bat
diffs

Thats expensive, i'm giving up on it until christmas.
For a complete set of mip diffs it's like 70 bucks, and I don't want to spend that much when it won't fix anything.

Ive heard bad things about the GPM gears from the 5 minutes of browsing one18th, hopefully the DP gears will be better, anybody else have a set?

No DP is full of it, they keep pushing back the release. They've been coming with gears for like 6 months now, and parts for about 10. I understand side business, passionate about the hobby, blah blah, but my patience and defense for DP is at it's end.

Hmm, ive been out of the rc scene for a while, maybe I can look into something.

I sold it as I was worried about a gear problem, however now I should be set. Im still considering going with dual brushed motors again to try something different.

Ok; I am thinking of going brushless, but before that happens I will need some servos. What servos do you run Inverted...JR241's?

Just the stockers. Ive bashed the hell out of it and the servos have never failed me. I found that using my Futaba radio many of my steering problems were eliminated. The stock radio is very flaky and causes the servos to constantly fight eachother.

Or maybe I do need them. (jr241 servos) I just don't want striped servos again. I really think I will get the jr241's and drill the holes like Jrgunn5150 did.

I was racing this one guy last week, I was using my brushless 18t and he was using his mlst. He stood no chance obviosly, but he was using 1 regular sized servo. I don't know how he mounted it or made it fit, but he did.

I was thinking about doing that, but it would take a lot of modifications.

The only dowside I saw to it was that it would probably use more power and make runtimes shorter, and take a lot of mods.

Ya, the biggest thing that keep me away from trying it is all the modifications and if something when wrong (didn't work the way I wanted it to) I would be in big trouble.

Sounds like one hell of a brushless system.

So I traded my MLST straight up for a T-maxx! I've never owned a gas powered one before and thought it might be a fun new thing to try! But never fear...the MLST will make a comback in my garage within a year pry.

You got to do what you gotta do. Good luck with the T-maxx. I will probably try a nitro truck some time, but not for a while.
