MegaP MXT-2S
Just ordered my MegaP. Just wondering what all i require other than fuel. I know about batteries for the transmitter, but what about for the receiver. 4 AA like redcat and exceed? Just want to be prepared when it comes. Also anything i should know about? What are the dimensions of this beast and how much does it weigh? lol
Thanks Bros.
Also, is it an Am or Fm transmitter?

just check the normal things like screws and bolts and loctite the metal to metal screws. double check the gear mesh, and carb settings for break in. put in the failsafe if you have one, and definitely a carb return spring i know i need to get one on here yet. thats about it.

They dont come oiled but they are greased. Like jason said, just go over the screws, loctite with blue loctite when they go into metal. I am sure you will love the truck, its a great RC, definately world class.

Keep an eye on the exhaust gasket. You'll hear the difference if it blows out. I made one out of a cardboard beer box and I'm back up and running. You'll love the truck. It's awesome.

RE: MegaP MXT-2S
Well i am getting damn anxiuos waiting for my MXT-2S. Cleared Canadian customs and should be here wed or thurs. One thing that sux is that i am on afterneeon all week. So when i do get it i can just stare at its incredibly beautiful essence when i get home at night. I''ll post picture when i get it. shoould be able to, maybe get a break in tank on saturday evening and the rest on sunday. any preffered break in methode i should use. 1/4-1/2-3/4-full figure 8 method or idle the first tank. i wasnt thin anxiuos in waiting for my other Rc''s. maybe its because this is a 1/8 and the others were only 1/10. HURRY up UPS guy.lol

RE: MegaP MXT-2S
