RE: MMPro 6900 question

If it's the latest version, the motor is rated up to 100,000 rpm. Gearing it to run cool for longer than 5 minutes will be the issue. If you plan on running it on a track, especially with the stock...

RE: CC Sidewinder 4600 heat issues

Get a temp gun before you do anything. It's normal for a CC motor to run in the 160-180 range. I've seen many slashes with your set up and gearing and they worked great. If it's running above those...

RE: Blitz, SC10, Slash, or Strike?

I have an SC10 and a Blitz while my neighbor has a Strike..Forget about the Strike as it is very fragile. The Blitz is very tough and with time and people tuning it, it will be a decent racer. The...

RE: What's the best Brushless motor for Off-road?

I'm running a Sidewinder esc and a Tekin 3700kv brushless sesnorless motor and it's awesome! It's fast, smooth and runs very cool. I've experimented with the cc 4600 and 5700 in my SC10 and the...

RE: Why can't we dicipline our kids anymore.

In these cases where adults are being arrested for seemingly innocent discipline practices, there's more to it than is being reported. I work as a middle school counselor and have had to call child...

Well, on my neighbors mail scale, that's how it came out. I have no reason to lie.

RE: losi strike.........

I just drove one on my track. My neighbor got his the other day and we broke it in this morning. It weighs almost a full pound more than my sc10 and it is longer. It handles very well and makes...

RE: which brushless setup?

If money is not an issue, look in to Tekin. I bought a motor from them on a whim to use with my sidewinder esc and totally dig it. They have a good reputation for durability and there customer...

RE: What's faster on the track, Slash or SC10?

I agree with the above posts as well. It comes down to 3 things in SCT racing.

1. Driver skill...enough said

2. Track knowledge

3. Familiarity with your vehicle

#1 speaks for...

RE: e-firestorm aluminum parts?

The only aluminum parts that seem beneficial to the firestorm are the aluminum threaded shocks (although the stockers are very good) and a hot racing aluminum bulkhead. The bulkhead just keeps...

RE: Mamba Max 5700 on HPI E-Firestorm Flux?

Regardless of who makes it, it's a good motor! I've had mine over 275 degrees and she still runs like a champ.

RE: Mamba Max 5700 on HPI E-Firestorm Flux?

Look closer. The Flux has external solder tabs while the cc unit is all internal. This requires a different casing and ultimately different tooling to make them. Why would CC or any company make...

RE: Mamba Max 5700 on HPI E-Firestorm Flux?

The esc's on the Flux systems are CC. The debate seems to revolve around the motors. The 1/8 scale flux motors are CC too. The 1/10 5700 is not. Put a CC 5700 and a Flux 5700 next to each other...

For starters, keep the motor, IT IS a Castle 5700kv rebadged. The esc is a rebadged Sidewinder.

RE: futaba 3pm range problem

How do you have the rx antenna routed? If you kink it at all, you will lose range.

RE: Fatuba 3PM 2.4ghz Problems - Slash & SC10

Reset everything. On my Futaba radio, I had to scroll to the throttle and steering and reverse them. Read your manuals and it should work out.

RE: is the losi desert truck any good?

It's very good if you keep it on a shelf. If you run off-road or go to a track with it, you will be buying parts. My neighbor has one and he is an excellent driver; he has replaced almost every...

RE: Official E-FIRESTORM thread

It's cogging because the esc and motor are demanding more than those batteries can give. You need to program your esc for the lowest settings or get some better batteries. Lipo is the only way to...
