dude... what would make ur custom XTM painting even better is if you put "RACING" in yellow, right below the TM.

tman327 07-10-2005 12:34 AM

RE: Official XTM X-Cellerator thread!!
 
Yeah, but I figure that yellow doesn't really go with the black and red :p So if anything it will be in red.

You'd be suprised. Yellow goes really well up against black and red... like trim and such.

The roto start for the Savage .21 is a direct fit.

Wow the racing kit version is a sweet deal. I want a .12 rear exhaust engine to be race legal. Any suggestions? I want a decent engine at a decent price? And what radio? I want a decent one with dual sterring rates, etc. Any suggestions? Thanks.

GoldenPoint 07-10-2005 12:38 PM

RE: Official XTM X-Cellerator thread!!
 
2 good engines r the SH.12 and the Daiblo .12 and if u wanna race than u should get a radio compatible with spektrum

Kemo 07-10-2005 01:40 PM

RE: Official XTM X-Cellerator thread!!
 
OS .12 TZ engine :D

RE: Official XTM X-Cellerator thread!!
 
I have an X-C and love it, i bought it last summer, this thing is a beast. I am planning on dropping in a new engine probably something like an O.S. .18 TZ Turbo, i might have to make some adjustments but i don't care. Right now i have titanium turnbuckles with blue rpm ball cups and a high torque steering servo, oh and some lime green losi rims with racing tires. Nothing special but planning on upgrading soon. When i get done i want it to be all blue, green, and some orange.

I'd snag a .12 CVR. And you can't go wrong with a JR XR3i or a Futaba 3PM. the XR3i is a better deal, IMO, because of the Z590M servo included.

Does anyone have any pics of a hopped up X-C?? I was thinking about making my X-C into a project. I'm thinking about making it strictly for street use. Any suggestions and what are your guy's opinions??

Here's mine. The upgrade list goes on... I have added a few things here and there since the pictures were taken, but not too much. I stripped off all the black and blue and polished all the aluminum as well. The FR18 is just my bashing engine, I race with the SH .12.

Here are some older pictures. I had painted all the plastic chrome, and it looked KILLER. I gave up on that after realizing how nitro dissolves paint lol. I sent in these pictures to RC Car Action Mag and got a reply from Paul Onnorato saying that it was concidered for the readers rides section. Kinda sucks though, 5 months later and it's still not there... so whatever.

RE: Official XTM X-Cellerator thread!!
 
I am looking for a new RTR. I have looked at the Jato, Rustler, and RCGT10 mostly. The price on this X-Cell seems to be a very good value. Can anyone give me an idea of this things durability? Also... are there lots of aftermarket parts for these?

I haven't really driven any serious RC cars or trucks and am just entering the sport. I guess I want something at a good price that can handle a little abuse. I think the Jatos seems good, but this truck is over $100 less. The Rustler seems good too, but that is close enough to the Jato price, that I would just get the Jato. I really want something I can modify a lot so aftermarket support is a must.

Any and all opinions are welcome.

Thanks

well if you go to xtm.globalhobby.com and then to the xcells page ull find some review links ill ull read them most mention the wen they were testing the xc it was extremly durable and xcell is compatible with losi trucks which get alot of aftermarket support and hardbodiz evn made a rollcage for the xc so its pretty good!

ThunderbirdJunkie 07-23-2005 06:46 PM

RE: Official XTM X-Cellerator thread!!
 
The internet to BUY XTM parts.
the spurs are compatible with Losi spurs, the wheels are compatible with Losi wheels, bodies are compatible with Losi bodies.

RE: Official XTM X-Cellerator thread!!
 
[font="Tahoma"]New into Nitro RC and a New "Papa" of a X-Cellerator,, great car!!!!!!!!!! Two quick questions though, would the Losi Front A-Arms from RPM #73902 fit my XTM ???? I understand that the Losi RPM wheels will fit, so I E-mailed RPM and they were not sure about the A-Arms, suggested I contact the Universe.. If not, does anyone know what would other than the OEM units and GS units???..... Another question, which Pro-Line Crowd Pleaser can I use on my XTM??
Also, this is my first post, but I won't be my last...


Thanks, Okieneck[sm=confused.gif]

jaejw1 09-17-2005 08:39 PM

RE: Official XTM X-Cellerator thread!!

RE: Official XTM X-Cellerator thread!!
 
hey, does the X-C racer come with a side or rear exhaust manifold? I'm about to grab one...just gotta make sure i get a header too so I can stuff one of my CVR's in it;)

RE: Official XTM X-Cellerator thread!!
 
I have a X-C and I really Dig it. I have Thrashed my body and would like a new one. What Losi Body will fit it. I would like a Ford F-150 style body. Also what are the eng temps that I should run. I am just getting started and I make a lot of mistakes. No Lie it is true, I make a lot of stupid mistakes.
