What kinda batteries u using?Lipo works best .Also they use 2mm and not 2.3mm pinions.I think there is a way to adapt the stock pinion to the 2mm motor shaft.The air power gh4700 is sweet in the detta

use a mamba esc and get the gh4700 motor.. gear it at 19/45 and you will be happy
the smaller motors need the 49t spur inorder to be geared properly..

The Rage Extreme NEEDS Lipo's to get any performance out if it! I run the 3&2 cells Lipos in my MLST and, is it insanely fast and, powerfull. I tried the stock batteries and, ones like it and, BOOOOOO!
Don't believe it?Ask someone at the LHS or track to just use/try thier 3cell lipo for a second in your ride and, you will prolly mess your pants in disbelief!

just look at this.. the stock gearing ratio of the detta is 7.12 : 1 (16/45),,, compared to the rc18t which is about 11:1 that is a huge huge difference.. and the best you can get those numbers to being good is about 10.33 : 1 (12/49) ,, that is still not good ,, i cooked literally cooked a mamba 800kv motor while it was geared at 12/49 ,,,,
but my gh4700 is just a blast.. with either a 6 cell nimh pack or a 2s lipo (2 cells) and i have it geared at 5.99 : 1 (19/45) .................
get the gh4700 stop screwing with those smaller motors.. they wont work well.

RE: rage extreme & vendeta
how is it geared and what are you doing with it.. i had a mamba 8000kv in mine and had it geared at 12/49 the detta weight and internal gearing cooked the lil motor.. the 6800 would be better and the 5400 would be best..
