Where is the best place to get those plugs. I was looking on tower but i really didn't see what i needed. I wasn't sure what exactly i needed to get started with deans.

You guys are great!! I was on a drum forum for a while. I asked a question and they laughed at me. I was new to the brand, so I had some questions. That really ticked me off, cause i've been playing for a long time. I'm a professional damn it. You fellers are very helpful, and I appreciate it.

thank you,

well on tower your looking for deans ultra plugs, if your making your own batteries you want to get a pack of deans female plugs(4 pack) youll also want to get some deans wet noodle wire if you havent already. get enough for your esc-motor, (and any other motors you have so that would be 1 male and 1(+) female so far, next youll want enough for your esc-battery(1 male for esc again and 1(+)female for battery)

that ok?

anyone hate it when they screw up? i caught one of my fiberglass cutting wheels on the edge of the ground as i went to pick it up and snap went my cutting wheel these things... well there goes 2 bucks....

ok well got the body posts on and all and i got the holes drilled and OMG my stock rustler body sits INSANELY low in the front im talking the bumper is less than a cm abov the top of the bumper(the part that connects to the chassis that is) ill post some pics my parents have the digital cam. now i just need to figure out how to mount the shocks since home depot doesnt sell screws as small as are in the rusty(though the largest chassis mount screws i got 6 backups from home depot cause i stripped the head on some of mine....)

that sucks, try the Crowd Pleazer Body, it sits high on the rustler.... Maddrums, you can get deans at tower hobbies, your gonna want 2 packs of the DEANS ULTRA PLUGS (the set) that's $2.50 each and the Female bulk plack (4) for $4.00 I think... I think someone already said this [&:]

Yeah thanks, I found them last night. I was looking in the wrong section.[:-]

mtrchamp

My Feedback: (4)

LOL good luck installing them

maddrums25

My Feedback: (14)

Yeah thanks, I'm going to have to get a soldering iron now. I want to get a better motor anyway, and they usually don't come with connectors. When I get my ESC i'll have to figure out what motor suits me best. Is there a motor out there with really good torque, and top end? I like to have the best of both worlds. You know, like a hemi with roller rockers and nitrous

My Feedback: (4)

Yeah there is:

P2K2 Pro
P2K Pro
P2K2
P2K
Green Machine 2 or 3
Team Orion Pilot (running it in my rustler crawler project)

Wicked, LMK if you want those chassis parts, if anyone else is interested, I have a near complete Rusty parts chassis I am willing to trade or sell. PM or E-mail me.... sorry mods for posting this in the forums

My Feedback: (14)

have you driven it like this yet?

mtrchamp

My Feedback: (4)

that's tight wicked, where did you buy the thing of lexan? if it's cheap I may just hit a store and get some and make my crawler chassis out of that... it'd look off the hook! [8D] LMK

maddrums25

My Feedback: (14)

Whats the thickness of that piece of lexan? I wonder if its the same as what they use on race car windows, because I have some of that. LMK

mtrchamp

My Feedback: (4)

It looks like it's about 2-4 mm thick... how much do you have? would you trade for rusty parts? LOL, lmk maddrums... I wanna make a race chassis for my Ultima , even though race season isn't for..... a while...

maddrums25

My Feedback: (14)

I'll check this week. We have a pole barn the next town over, where we used to build race cars. I'll see how thick it is, but I don't know if it is too flexible or not. If it will work i'll send you a peice.

mtrchamp

My Feedback: (4)

nice [8D], thanks bro... next town over? Do you live in one of those little towns like in Kansas??? not to be rude or ambitious but....? The city I live in has 55,600 people and the next town over has 154.900 people

My Feedback: (14)

A couple 1 horse towns, No big deal.[:-]
What are the demensions on your ultima? I've got someone looking for some right now if I have any, i'll have it tuesday. As far as I know you can only buy it in the big sheets. Unless you know someone who races. Maybe plexiglass at your local hardware store. Or you could get a whole sheet, cut a bunch out and sell it.

mtrchamp

My Feedback: (4)

Dunno, I don't measure... about 20"x12"

maddrums25

My Feedback: (14)

lol, i'll look into it. I wonder how good it would be to have a really flexible chassis, like a thin spring steel. Just a thought. Might be cool to have some bend to a crawler.

mtrchamp

My Feedback: (4)

naw, you want a rigid chassis with a lot of clearence.... if the chassis bends then it can kink it an risk messing up your suspension
