Status: offline 		slap some of them pics up here. id like to see some. so i found a group of people who do parkinglot races near my house. only about 20 minutes out. which is a lot closer than the local track. also, my LHS just opened a brand new track! i can drive for free and should be able to film my stampede there sometime in the near future if i can make some friends with the regulars who get there...

Status: offline 		here are the pictures of my new receiver box. took a while to cut the chassis out. i also had to move back the battery by cutting out that little wall behind the battery. but i like it. with my small antenna on my fasst receiver i cant afford to get all the way back to the stock possition of the antenna.
i also have a problem. when my truck gets a little dead, it just takes off. i dont know whay. i took it to the hobby shop and they said that it was because when the battery gets dead that it doesnt know wether to put the power to the car or the receiver and it doesnt have enough voltage. is this true or do i have a problem?

Status: offline 		have you tuned your sidewinder on the computer at all? dont they come with failsafes? does the fasst not have a failsafe? a lot of recievers and escs do nowadays.

Status: offline 		yes it comes with a failsafe but how do i tune it to the electric? i think it only works with nitro trucks. and no i have not yet tuned my esc on the computer due to the fact that i dont have the link yet.

Status: offline 		read your instructions. never personally tuned a fasst system so i cant tell you how to do it. the booklet can though. and nah failsafe can be used on electric. so whenever the reciever doesnt get enough power, it shuts down... thats all it is on a nitro. should work fine... kinda suprises me that it doesnt do that already.

Status: offline 		yea i dont know. it is kinda getting me pissed though cause it didnt come with a receiver battery pack holder. it says it does in the manual but it doesnt. I dont care right now cause i have one from my old futaba but im going to ask my lhs. Also my sidewinder didnt come with the manual. I asked them and he said he could get me one but there is the manual on the web. but i think that my lhs takes stuff out of boxes to give to people and it gets me mad. im going to tell them that im not very happy with them. But i just figured out how to set the failsafe so im happy. i need to try it out though.

Status: offline 		you use these for steering and the stock steering ones for the camber. then use front wheels all around. these are a tad long but it isnt enough to make me cut them down.

Status: offline 		use stock steering links with a little cut off each end as your toe. or use rear links as your toe up front. i used e-maxx 94mm links. i think pede kid used 105mm or something.

Status: offline 		yea and i used the 105 ones also. but i think you meant to say cut off each side of the stock ones and use them as your camber links. you said toe. im not sure lol?
