    Disconnect the servo saver from the servo

    Set your steering trim on your Tx to neutral

    Turn on your Tx and Rx

    Point the wheels straight and place the servo saver back onto the servo.

    Should help!

    hey everyone
    so incase anyone was wondering about me
    i got my mini-t pro
    and am running it with the 7 cell pack
    and the speed motor
    the stock novak xrs esc was good
    but i needed more adjustability so i used my mamba 25
    programmed for brushed
    really impressed with it
    but i need some new oil and springs
    what oil/# holes in piston is everyone running here (please say where ur running also)
    i burnt out
    my stock motor running through tall grass so
    i plan on getting a new motor (like a 280bb, a stock minibaja motor, a stock rc18 motor)
    but which one
    its a really nice rig
    i tightened the diff about all the way than 1/2 turn out
    i like it like that, not much diff action, but still a little

    i also plan on getting a tamiya df03 (random)
    lol

    so peace everyone and hope u guys are having fun with ur mini-t's like me =D

    OH
    and almost forgot
    whats some good gearing
    i want good accel
    top end should be decent tho

    I ran 12/60 with my Stock Mini-B motor and it gave me speeds equal to my Detta ST with a timed VR3. I was running the stock battery so with a better battery I would have had even more power. I got non-stop wheelies with that gearing. I don't know a good Shock set-up because my stocks were screwed up and leaked.

    i never do u had a mini-t
    lol

    ya i was getting speeds of like my BL detta on 4cells
    with my mini-t pro speed motor and 7 cells
    pretty cool

    oh and also
    i did the mod that lets me use servos like
    the hs81 and hs85
    i have the hs81 right now
    and it RULES
    so fast and so much torque
    it actually has enuf torque to swing the wheels
    back to neutral

    im not running a servo saver right now
    but ordered a kimbrough one
    it seems fine w/o one but i havent got to run it yet
    since my motor is dead

    I've been running a HS-55 with the Losi Servo Saver and it's great. It's way lighter then the HS-81 and has enough power to turn the wheels. I really want to get mine running again but my Evader is my favorite car.

    I'll have to look into these mods. Someone said the hitec hs-65hb or something is a good one too. anyone hear anything about that one? this week I am either going to get the HS-55 or the 65HB

    right now my micro baja is my fav car, lol. but I may buy a XTM Rage next something about that lil bugger pulls me in.

    thanks damz

    just the spider gears and the bevel ones inside of the diff

    heres how i would do it
    remove the diff cover
    keep outdrives in the diff
    put some epoxy in the diff
    put the cover on (dont screw it on)
    just move the outdrives so all the gears get coated
    remove the outdrives
    clean them off
    let the epoxy dry and cure
    re attach outdrives
    put in tranny

    dont put to much in the diff tho
    or else the outdrives may not fit in

    so what lipos are people using on these rigs? my baja is stock cept shocks and low gearing for top speeds. Would like to go lipo though after seeing what it does to my micro baja. Is there going to be a losi lipo setup like there is for the micro?


    also, can I use 7 and 8 cell batts without any problems?
