hey guys.. i just bought a o.s. cv-r .12 engine for a great deal.. the engine doesnt include anything, but does have a standard shaft. i wanted to know what I need in order for it to be a drop-in engine for the x-cell. If i buy the o.s. 12cv short shaft, will it fit http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...?&I=LXBLR0&P=7 ? Will the xtm xcell clutch fit? engine mounts? Thanks to whoever can help me. I'd appreciate it big time.

@annie

i have some harder springs here for the x-cell. you mean i should put harder springs in the front and medium ones in the rear ? would the fluid combination still work out ?

RCUSEE

well here is what i will do...

30wt front + xtm hard spring
50wt back + xtm stock spring (medium)

AE Pilot

Hey guys, are there any other shocks that will work with the XC?

RCUSEE

id say there is alot... associated, losi, evader...

but i would say the problem of the xc shocks is the stock fluid.

rclynx

I think your telling me you have an SG crank and want to change it to a S crank and yes you should have very little problem puting the OS in providing that the crank you want to put in is the right application[:-]

AE Pilot

Shocks from which Losi and AE models will fit?

RCUSEE

well someone on rcuniverse has losi shocks on his xcell, i guess they are xxx-nt's

-

could someone summarize the worthy upgrades for the xcell ?

i want to know how I can make my x-cell the fastest possible with a .12 cv-r engine... what pipe, airfilter, clutchbell, spur gear, and such, to make it the fastest it can be with a .12 cv-r. i want it to wheelie and stuff.. can anyone help?

RCUSEE

wow finally found a rc10gt proline body, gonna order it this week with some proline wheels and tires. do proline wheels for the 1:10 mts always come with the needed foam ?

im now setting the x-cell up for bashing... are these proline tires any good im asking because they look awesome

annie_himself

Those tires are good in tall grass and such, nothing packed and nothing on the road, basically as long as you run it off-road you'll be fine.

RCUSEE

is tirefoam included ?

Black Angel

can somebody tell me dimensions of xtm nitro x-cellerator

annie_himself

Yes, foams are almost always included in tires.

Black Angel-look on the XTM website for dimensions.

Hi, I'm thinking about buying an x-cellerator. I have an old HPI mt2 with a t-15 in it. how much faster would you say the x is in comparison. I am looking for something that is fast and cheap. the mt2 is horribly slow.

RCUSEE

well my x-cell is like superb fast i havent clocked it yet but its acceleration is awesome but in germany x-cells have different engines... it looks alot like a os18(whatever) and has about 2,2hp.
all you need to make it perfect are some proline tires and better shockoil, maybe some harder springs(just in combination).

rclynx

X-c is as fast as you can get for the price[:-]and faster than a lot of others

annie_himself

That motor doesn't have 2.2hp. If it did the transmission wouldn't last long after breakin.

RCUSEE

well i had to put in a new transgear in last week... but still the company says it has 2.2ps which is 1.97hp

annie_himself

Thats because the new X-Cells have a tranny issue. What gear was it?

RCUSEE

oh im sorry it was the differentialgear but i think i setted up the slipper to tight that time...

annie_himself

Oh..that will do it!

RCUSEE

has anyone of you put on the stabilizer kit ?
i tried but there was no way to mount it cause there arent even that small tools to get them things on :/
otherwise i thought if i bash the car it wouldnt even be positive to mount them, they only good for racing imo.

rclynx

They come standard on the roller X-c and I guess they could be a little hard to put on the first time....I use them on my 2 wanna be racers and like them....In a few weeks I should have my web site up and when you have a question like that I can show you some pictures to figure out your problem but for now its Phfttt[]
