How are the arms and other stuff coming along? Maybe you could make a spur gear that would let people use mamba motors and just make it have a lot of teeth to help keep the motor cool.

Jae, I am hoping to see a video of the detta with the Neu on the track!

I want to see it waste those 10th scales even more because it did already with the permax...

Doesn't a pinion as small as 10t not overheat the motor with the 45t spur? I know there is a bigger spure like 47 out too. I don't think 10/47 could overheat anything on a detta. I could be wrong though...

i cooked a mamba 8000kv with it geared at 12/49,,,, cooked a wraith 7000kv also with the same gearing...

a larger spur wont fit...

Arms are coming along good hope to get those done before the month is out.
We are also looking to do a new truck body for the ST . We are making our vacuum forming machine this weekend and are really excited about it.
attached is a pic of our new bumper.

Great news on the bumper. Even better news about the body. I've wanted a better looking body ever since this was first released. It needs to be more narrow and sportier like a real 1/8th scale truggy. Good job DP.

And about the 48p imperial spur idea... I'm not a fan. Even if a spur was available for the mamba, I still wouldn't use one. The motor itself is just too small. I'd rather stick to my current 28mm motors.

They used to be on dinball (rcmart.com), but I don't think they carry them anymore. I wish they did.

I guess I'm going to buy a new Detta ST and use all the parts I have now for spares. Has anyone used the 3 Easy Pay option?

Go for speed when picking a servo. Torque isn't really needed in my Vendetta experiences. I don't know anything about the hitec except hitecs are usually pretty dang good. The stock servo is still holding up pretty good for me. If I had to get a new servo, I would go for a high speed one.
