You can change the maximum time the charger will charge by going into the setup menu. No need for an external charger.

Welcome to the boards. TBone bumpers are the way to go. They are tough and will save you a lot of broken suspension arms. Plus they have a lifetime warranty. Break one and all you have to do is...

Usage update. My UP120AC is still working great after 18 months and hundreds of charges. I regularly charge two, 2S 6500 mAh 50C bats at 6.5 amps at the same time and the charger never complains. ...

I believe that the UP120 Duo can charge the new LiHV packs. Awhile back I was playing around with the charging parameters and there is a cutoff voltage option. When I set it to 4.3 V for a 2S pack...

2S2P lipo inherent flaw

At the beginning of this year I bought a couple of SMC 7200 mAh, 60C batteries. They seemed like a good value. When they were new they were sweet. Long run time with a lot more mid-range punch in...

In all honesty, my GT3C started acting funky after I dropped it on a concrete floor. Before that it was fine. No range issues. I liked it. But the replacement from Hobby Partz was DOA. Exhibited...

Go for the FlySky. I just replaced my GT3B with a GT3C after the old one finally crapped out. The B was starting to get occasional operating glitches and it would not bind to any receiver. It lead...

I'm not sure how the two motors you mention would compare in run time or heat. The 3900 kV 4 pole will have more torque than the Castle but will have a lower top speed than the 5700, assuming the...

Too large a pinion can cause high temps but usually in the motor. Count the teeth on both yours and your son's. If yours is more that could be the issue. But like I said it's weird that the motor...

I agree with Rusty. Drop the pinion down a tooth or two and see how the temps are. 130 on the ESC isn't bad but 170 on the motor is pushing it.

Yeah, it looks like a firmware problem. I'd return it. I've had an AC6 for several years now. Works like a champ and never has done anything weird.

But I would recommend getting a Thunder...

The GT3C is an newer version of the GT3B. The biggest difference is the older 3B uses eight AA's so it's quite a bit heavier and it has a poorer display. It's hard to see in the bright sun. The...
