RE: Help with TC3 setup

RE: TC3 Modification help ??

Are you guys running on extremely small tracks?? With those gearing numbers I can not see how you get any speed on the straights. On a medium sized track I generally run a 27/72 gearing. With good...

Heatsinks on a stock motor are not always a good thing. If it covers up the vents on the motor that let the heat out then it can actually cause it to hold more heat in. That is just an observation...

RE: Charger and Power supply

Razoo is right.. get a good charger. If you want one that can discharge and cycle your packs then you are basically looking at the GFX or a couple of the Integy chargers. I think the 16x7v6 and...

RE: My Acceleration

If you are using a 21t pinion then you are killing your top speed. If your car can not reach top speed within the distance of a good straight-away with the 28t pinion then I would start looking for...
