Status: offline 		LOL i know m8 i learnt the hard way too when i first got mine i didnt have much rc stuff so a m8 lent me his no limit esc and a 13turn mod motor great i thought he was saying how fast it would go...5mins into the run TWAAAAANG the car comes limping back running rwd only,take the shell off, the propshaft was missing,,searched the road bingo found it shaped like a boomerang LMAO how it managed to escape the shell i still dont know,ran the kit on rwd for a few days waiting for the new ali prop shaft,then my mate asks "u did install upgrade bearings right?" DAMN ordered them next and finally added new shocks too
I suppose its one way of learning by breaking parts

The only part ive never seen the need was the metal motor mount ive ran 10turn motors geared high and have never melted or warped the plastic stock one strange..

Status: offline 		im not really sure how to say this...I just got a RTR Nismo Coppermix TT-01D and I love it! ...this thing is a drifting beast for a first timer...but I wanna be able to race down roads..and im a little less then dissappointed with its top speed......I would like it to go faster...I was wondering what Hop-Ups could I get to increase its accel/Top end speed? with hop-ups in mind....I am also on a small budget...so Im seeking pretty much a few parts under 40-60 dollars to improve its speed ....I hear Metal ball bearings/Alum Shaft / bigger battery are good bang for buck speed on this...Im not looking for absurdly fast..but fast enough to Oooh&awwww on lookers with drift/speed

usually constant beeping is no signal from transmitter to reciever m8 check your leads are in correctly etc i set my ESC up using the extra battery pack then once set, i set it up to run directly from main battery.

check a few pages back someone got 80mph on lipos but they need a lot of upgrades and mods to hit over 80mph the carbon chassis is a must and a good BL/lipo setiup and plenty of voltage running
