Question for you - Are the oil filled shocks worth the $$?? Did you notice much difference in performance? Do they leak oil?
I recently went brushless and was having a few problems with radio glitches - had to move my antanae away from the motor/motor leads. I think these AM systems kinda suck anyways. i'd go spektrum or fm if i had the $$.
Also, anyone know where to get a good set of meaty knobs for my nice aluminum wheels? Everything i've found is more or less bald street tires.

Thanks.

but that charger only uses alligator clips. would i have to use an extra micro t connector on wire and then clip the alligator clips onto it and use that as a charge lead???

okay last question...i was looking for connectors but the ones i found all had wires on them. should i just solder the wire to the wire on the aero battery? i was looking for just the connector, no wire to solder the battery wires to.

can someone give me a link


thanks

The alligator clips are for the INPUT , meaning you hook up a 12 volt power source too them (like a car battery or a DC power supply) .

You charge through the balance/charge plug and that plugs into the side of the charger .

I would use MICRO DEANS plugs , they are nice and small and are easy too disconnect/connect ....You will have too solder one plug too the ESC and one too the battery of course ...

So I just got my micro Baja today. When I run it the rear tires lock up when I left off the throttle as in the car won't coast like a normal one would. Is this normal? Or a problem I need to fix?

Try loosening the tranny case screws just a little , maybe 1/8-1/4 turn .

Sometimes they are put together too tight from the factory and will bind , that or the diff still isnt broken in yet .

I think the Micro DT is the best one , its a little bigger than the Micro T and is more stable at speed .

AND LOSI IS RELEASING A 3S 11.1v LIPO THAT FITS THE DT CHASSIS ! [X(][X(]

[link=http://www.losi.com/Products/Features.aspx?ProdId=LOSB0873]MDT 3s LiPo BATTERY [/link]

I cant wait too see my brushless MDT with this thing in it , its crazy fast on 2s now .....
