how fast is a stock detta? i put a 2s lipo in my detta and snapped a cvd in like 5 mins.....is that normal?

hmmm,, i was using a brushless motor and mine lastest for about a week or so.. and i was trying to do everything i could to break them,,, just so i could let everyone know... just buy the steel cvd's or buy a bunch of the plastic ones..

heli-kid

yeah all my local hobbyshops said they wouldnt have the plastic ones in for at least 3 weeks so im just gonna order the steel ones from atomic mods! i have one more question....if i run a inrunner brushless plane motor can i use a plane speed control?

Soon after I got mine, I taped a GPS on top and ran it-all stock. When I was finished, I looked at the max speed on the GPS. For accuracy, I checked it 3 times. They were 18, 18, and 19mph. I have the ST, but top speed is probably the same.

yeah theyre pretty quick stock and im thinking of getting a mamba 8000.....im not sure if i can handle that much power though? has any one ever ran one 2wd? i broke a cv axle on the front and i just took the pin out of the other cv axle and now im running 2wd until my parts come in!

at the bottom in my signature are two links and one of them is for motor reviews.... checkit out

do not buy that lil tiny 8000kv motor.... u need something with much more power like the ammo 3900 or the 5100

The stock vr3 is a fast motor if you run lipos and a good esc. I could see snapping plastic driveshafts if you were really rough on the throttle. My plastic ones lasted quite a long time though.

hkshobby.com is the place to get cvds... I paid like 45 shipped for 2 pairs, Thats cheapest anywhere.....

heli-kid

I wasn't sure which one to pick so I went with the aluminums but the reinforced ones are the same price:

http://store.hkshobby.com/product_in...oducts_id=2157 <-- Alum. 7075
http://store.hkshobby.com/product_in...oducts_id=2158 <-- Reinforced

BTW I would recommed upgrading to Priority mail its like 20 cents more expensive. :P

I paid
$46.80 to be exact priority mail to VA

Warning though: Tighten the screws that hold the pins in I just got mine today and put them in and they look great. Although first run the pin fell out (was in side luckily). Just a heads up!
