RE: hope 50 mph rc sled

I have an extra red sled that is all stock and in excellent condition. Before it goes to the classifieds or ebay i thought I'd see if one of you on this thread was interested. PM me if so.

RE: hope 50 mph rc sled

I put a Tacon 2230kv motor in my sled for testing and it ran great! I only have grass to drive it on but couldn't wait, it was on 2s and was quite quick too. Look for pics and some...

RE: Skidoo Rev XP snowmobile hop-up

Techyjoe - I saw that you replaced the Duratrax springs with the stock ones. I just installed the same shocks on my front suspension and as-is they compress nice but the rebound from the spring is...

RE: Skidoo Rev XP snowmobile hop-up

I was going to get one from SDP/SI like this. From what I can tell the flange diameter is about 30mm which will be a little large so i was going to just trim it down. Maybe I'm reading it wrong but...

RE: Skidoo Rev XP snowmobile hop-up

RE: hope 50 mph rc sled

Hooray! This is awesome! Those drive wheels will be so nice and modding the smaller sled will too because it's more available! Most excellent! Will you be starting a new thread for the rev xp?

Nice vid.

Hurricane - I love the new design on the motor mount and pic! You like the gears better than the belts or are they more readily available?

RE: hope 50 mph rc sled

Quick question Hurricane, how did the pinion work on the motor shaft if it was drilled out to 5mm? Aren't most motor shafts 3mm?
