You would probably still have to do the self centering spring mod since it is made for airplanes.

The hardest part about the stick mod is getting the parts.

Let me see if I can find the needed parts for you.

What's nersry? I learned the alphabet at a very young age thanks to sesame street and my numbers and counting, I don't mind the program, if childrn are going to be watching TV it's fantastic.

Hey guys, good deal on those protek lipos. Perfect for brushed applications...

I still want to put a lipo in the semi and one of those packs would drop right in without any modification.

Yeah, those lipo's work great.

I tried using the [link=http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&I=LXUFE9]Novak 5A BEC w/LiPo Monitor[/link] with the MFC-01 but it didn't work. The smart-stop will work but I don't know how the MFC will react to it.

Those are a good price. Too bad I'm set on a 25C hard case for when I go LiPo. I just want that extra protection for the E-Savage bashing, and the C rating for when I go BL.

But heck, if I really wanted, I could use those ProTeks on my buggies. Was planning on sharing the LiPo between Savvy and Buggies, but at that price, maybe not....!

I have some hard cased 25c packs, but they won't fit in my WW2, so I will get some of these packs (when I win the lottery) for my brushed cars, (drifters rocking sport tuned and my WW2)

I guess you can also use 12 A123s if there's space on the Savage chassis. Make 2 3s2p 4600mah 9.9v packs. It will be way heavier than lipo though.

Yeah, the problem w/ my 5,000mAh hardcase LiPo is that it won't fit the round shape slots of many of the Tamiya cars.... [:@]

I wonder if the 4,000mAh pack would fit.. it should... (with no hardcase)

Do you think these packs could handle the Novak 5800 SS (think 8.5) BL setup in a 4WD 1/10 buggy? Or would BL be too much (even in a lightish buggy?)

I could, but I guess I'm shying away from that since I really want to get packs that I can use in all 3 of my vehicles - so 2 x 7.4V LiPo (2s) works for the Savage, I can slap one of them in a buggy (one is BL, one is brushed). That sort of thing.

Interesting idea, though.
