glad to see this thread is back. not sure what happened but at least its back. i havent really messed with my king lately. i think before i do anything else with it, i will get a higher turn motor. which would be best to get? i want a little speed for bashing so i was thinking like a 35 turn. i want something about like the stock motor but with more torque. any suggestions?

My WB is about 2 inchs longer than comp legal... the center gets hung up a lot but it hill climbs like a son of a gun!!

do you guys think 6 cell ener-g 4600 nimhs are too much for the stock motor and esc? i plan to get a wheely king soon and want to keep it stock except for any mods that are a must. i wont be competing just want a basher for my backyard that can pop wheelies at will

nitrosportsandrunner

the motor will be fine on that battery. the esc will run, but get hot. may shorten its life. the stock esc is only good for a completly stock wheely king. if you try to crawl or make it run faster(ie, lower turn motor or much better battery) it will get hot. plan on upgrading the esc in the near future.

hey guys glad to see its back. i was starting to think i got kicked off fo some reason. well i bought a servo mount from ebay it was a older ckrc mount and wont fit with my stock tires, so got pissed and took a alumnin brownie pan from the ole lady and made one. kinda thin but its workin so far. ive got one ? can i run 2 1500 batteries?? if so how do you wire them 2gether?? and thanks for all the help from everyone. its been fun building my first crawler

dacaur

You will want to wire them in parallel. Basically you will have the positives of both packs connected to the positive on the ESC, and the negative of both packs connected to the negative of the ESC.... he best way to do it is to make a little adapter with two battery plugs on one end that both connect to the single esc plug on the other end. (positives together and negatives together.)

im thinkin about makin a chassis and was wondering if it is ok to run the motor and trans on its side?

learning2crawl

no problem. I have seen this done before. It actually is nice because it lowers your center of gravity. Good luck and lets see some build pic's along the way.

has anyone made the widow chassis? just wondering how it works. i think thats the one im gonna try.

I've made it. It works quite well with shorth shocks and a lot of weight in the wheels. Dont use the stock shocks, the ride height is way too high and it results in some weird axle wrap issues.

what shocks would be good to use? thanks for the help

im going to buy a 55t motor from ebay and was wondering how do you know if i need to put caps on it?

dkchance74

My Feedback: (17)

anyone know what x factor axles are worth???

dacaur

if you arnet using a 2.4ghz radio, you NEED caps to suppress electronic noise or you will most likley get glitching... if you are running 2.4, you dont NEED them, but i would still put them on...

The Real Dogman

caps on a crawler motor??? MMaaahhhhaaaaaahhhaaa Never had any on any of my motors 35t-75t, just never saw the need!!

is a novak rooster better than a tazer 15t?

hands without shadows

Infinitely better.

munro300

My novak 55 came with caps on it and I got my ax 10 with a tazer 15t esc but bought a rooster crawler right away and couldnt be happier. The zero delay and higher amp bec is awesome especially when you are running a high torque servo.
