Default RE: Official Losi Micro SCT Thread

looking good phmaximus!
So far so good with the aluminum spur gear.
I had almost forgotten the trick to get the right distance between pinion and spur gear.
You take a little pice of print paper or such and put it between pinion and gear, push motor with pinion firmly
in to spur gear, the paper will set the perfect distance generally.

Is that a Losi servo you are using? My servo wires wore off at soldering (due to pulling on wires?)
The soldering is so close together i'm not even going to try repairing

I've been trending towards cheaper electronics and have had better luck, go figure...
I'm off to hobby king servo next. At $5.00 a piece it's like 3 for the price of one.
The $16.00 esc I have is working great with default settings, the 1/36 Losi burned up after 2 min.
