RE: Official E-FIRESTORM thread
nice, there seems to be more parts then i thought, since it looks like you can use some of the blitz parts.
I just ordered mine, here is what i got:
Integy 25C LiPo 5000mAh 7.4V 22x46x137mm
HPI Racing E-Firestorm 10T Flux BL RTR
I wish i knew what color i was getting, i really like the red one.

I actually picked up a set of RPM Front & Rear A-arms last week, I just haven't had time to install them yet. Maybe tomorrow night I'll get them on if I'm lucky.

RE: Official E-FIRESTORM thread
I changed out my servo today, Took some pics as maybe a newbie could use to change his/her servo. I feel like the futuba s3004 servo is good for the money, Its a standard servo with a ball bearing. It is so quite compared to the bluebird and not too much slower.
The storm with the bad bluebird servo.

Red- We expect a full report. Is your new servo metal geared?

install the top brace and clean up the wiring, Thats about it very simple job. I know this is like the back of your hand for most but some might find it handy.
Thanks for watching...This has been a Redfisher production

Great guide Red! I upgraded with the servo in the attachment recently and was well pleased with the difference over stock

These sidewinder motors on this truck are the same motor for the mamba max right? So I could throw my mamba max speed control on these truck and run 3s since rpm doesn't exceed the motor limits, correct?
