New update for the TQi at iTunes
now u can select metric units!!! Wooooo about time

Here is the optional battery Pack for the controller

PN#3037

Warning, Dont use the existing AA battery holder on anything apart from the controller.
It has a yellow plug and is wired different to a standard battery pack, the negitave lead is where the signal wire normally is.
They have done this so u cant accidentally plug the hump pack charger in and charge the AA battery pack. Safety feature
Hump pack is wired normally

So is there anything in the crimp on the temp sensor to affect the voltage from the power tap?, or is it just a way to use one plug? I'm gathering parts to convert my 2wd Slash and the temp sensor seems a bit hard to locate right now so I'm hoping I can just patch a wire from my + battery lead into the appropriate RX pin? Also...Traxxas tells me for this application no magnet is necessary and the rpm trigger reads off the spur gear, but thats really hard to believe. I'm assuming I need the spur adaptor and magnet even though the Traxxas page does not show it as necessary and they say it isnt? Basically grabbing parts as my LHS has them...Honestly battery voltage and RPM are about all I want....I figure the motor will start smoking when....

Has anyone wired the power tap directly without the temp sensor? Yeah, I know its like $12...But 12$ is 12$...besides shipping at this point. Todd

Hey bud, the temp and volt sensor just share the same plug, 2 for the temp and 1 for power. For the $12 it's worth it, u can use the temp sensor to monitor the ESC, battery or motor. The temp sensor is very easy to fit, there is even a holder for electric motors.
Some guys have wired up the volt sensor them self

I recomend using the temp sensor tho, each time u overheat ur motor it looses power, that happens before the magic smoke

Yes it uses a magnat, I've listed all the parts u will need above under...
Traxxas Bandit
Traxxas Rustler
Traxxas Stampede 2wd
Traxxas Slash 2wd
Traxxas Monster Jam Replicas
Traxxas Ford F-150 Raptor STV
