Default RE: Wind Hobby Ferret 1/16th Electric Buggy

I didn't change anything to run the LiPos. Everything has been fine. That speed control is surprisingly good.

I'd like to give the mamba a try but it's so expensive. Maybe I could snag one on eBay. I think you'd have to have a slipper clutch for a motor that powerful. Might just order the speed reducer on Redcat, just to see what it is...

That VR3 must be a good motor. I did a search on Yahoo for it, and one of the links was for someone who won a championship with that motor in a Vendetta. Can't wait to try it. Here's that page: [link=http://www.duratrax.com/cars/dtxd13-vendetta/dtxd13-events.html]VR3 championship[/link]
