Does anyone know about the Schiada?

Thanks Ron:

I was just looking at the Nitro Fury in an old mag. I found it here:

I checked out the ZigZag at my LHS today. I am much more impressed than I thought I'd be. I just ordered a CEN AquaJet, so I think I'll buy a ZZ next payday (my wife put me on a monthly allowance,...

Does anyone know about the Schiada?

Thanks Climate:
I'm looking at the Basic Kit. Will you send me some pics of the inside and transom (is that the back?)? I'm mostly interested in how the motor and drivetrain is set up.

Other forums also recommend the ZigZag. Does anyone know where to find pics of the inside? How about mods?

Thanks

Recommend a small, cheap, electric

I'm looking for something small, inexpensive, and not RTR. I was about to buy a Fighter 550, but I keep hearing bad things about. Does anyone have good things to say about this boat?

If not, will...

Which should I get?

I just experienced a similar quandry. I really like the turning ability of the Grey, but it has a u-joint drive system which I wasn't very fond of in my Villain. I order a Jet 775 yesterday to...

Wild Dagger ESC

Nice truck!! Your esc should work if your motors are wired in series. In series, 2 19 turn motors look like a 38 turn to the esc. Your Pro esc with no motor limit should handle the load, but your...

I love my Wildcat

I have a Wildcat SS that I bought used about a year ago. I tried increasing its speed by using E-Maxx Titan motors with the EVX esc and 14.4 volts. It was better than stock. Now I run 20 turn...

!!!!!!!!!!!overheat!!!!!!!!!!!!

Just a personal observation:

I run my Rustler with a 16x2 and 15tooth pinion. The motor and esc stay cool. The top speed is slower than the stock (18?) pinion provided, but quick takeoffs and...

whats better... Aerobird or T-hawk?

The T-Hawk is my first plane and is a great flyer (to me). I wish I was. My plane currently is stuck 40' up in a tree. The stock esc is fully proportional, but not with the included radio. I use a...

If you're still interested . . .

The water-cooled T-Maxx was rigged with a Conley fuel pump to move coolent through a Traxxas marine engine with water-cooled head (I think it was Traxxas) and a brass airplane fuel tank to dissipate...

T-Hawk-Please give advice!! CHEERS

BillK is right, and the stock esc is proportional so all you need is a Tx. I put a Hitec Laser 4 in mine, and it performs well even with the giant 7ch Rx (I was in a hurry and did not want to order...

My wife always tells me that Tim and I have MUCH in common, and I have the scars to prove it. Since Tekin went out of business, I believe (and there are many in these forums that agree with me) that...

It will change the weight of your boat. The extra weight will strain your esc and slow your boat. Your Super Rooster can push up to 14.4 volts (12 cells in series) through your 19turn motors wired...

My 2 cents

I have a T-Hawk with my own 4ch radio and love it. I'm a car guy and do not fly well (lots of crashes), but this is a fun, easy to repair plane with several spare parts.

I've found stadium trucks to be more versitile. I have put street tires on my RS4 Nitro MT and raced it with touring cars. Change the tires and ride height again; it's ready for the dirt (not to...

Which one?

I've driven both of these trucks, and I liked both. They both are nice "play trucks" that can be worked into decent racers at your local track (good driving helps too). The only thing the Duratrax...
