RE: INSANE!!!! coolest boatcarbuggyairplane EVER!!! video

I don't mind being wrong, but I guess I'm still not convinced. The ripples on that pond really don't move, and the model just comes too close to the camera for me to believe it. I do believe it's...

Hm... If you are driving a very fast nitro touring car (4wd) there are times when the car will turn right from the massive amount of rotation from the drive shaft, but as you drive a Rustler, I...

RE: First R/C truck for 5 year old?

You probably won't get too much more run time with 1500 mah packs. If you buy 3300s eventually, which I would highly recommend, you will get about double the runtime. As with everything in this...

RE: 969 Help!!!!!!!!!!!

I have the 959, and I know that there are no setting for Nicd vs Nimh. You literally plug it in, set the charge rate and hit start.

RE: Very Confused

Yep, as long as the plug on the end of your battery and on the end of your ESC are the same type, you just plug and charge.

RE: xxx-tmf2/sport help pretty plz

Both trucks are essentially equal in quality (T4 and XXX-t), but the XXX has a much better radio. The Matt Francis XXX-T has more graphite parts and is generally considered better for racing, but...

RE: run time

Electrics are generally easier to maintain and there is no tuning. Also, replacement motors, (excluding brushless) are much cheaper than with a nitro.

RE: can i do this?

You should read the Tmaxx owner's manual a little bit closer... :D In the manual, it says that you should never rev the engine while the tires are on the ground. I don't know why, but I would just...

RE: Alternatives to Deans?

Well, just to be fair, I specifically stated several times that the Deans plugs were good, but they just were hard for me. If you check my first post even, I asked for another plug that was as good...

RE: Alternatives to Deans?

RE: Alternatives to Deans?

I guess one problem I had when installing the deans is that I only had a VERY old 25W iron. It took forever for the solder to melt even when the iron was totally hot. Also, should I be able to hold...

RE: Alternatives to Deans?

Yes, I know that deans are "the best thing out there," but they aren't for me. I want something that is easier to disconnect, and hopefully, a little bit easier to install as well. It was difficult...

RE: NO GO!

Here, try this. Change out the channels on your ESC. That is, switch the two wires that go from the ESC to the servo, and to the motor. Once you do that, try to turn your transmitter and the motor...

RE: I Broke My First Part Yesterday=(

For some reason, the people I know that have Losi trucks have problems with shock towers. I don't know if the XXX-S is the same, but an aluminum one might not be a bad investment.
