I sold my J82 . I used a MM 5700 & 2s 5000mah FP on mine .

I hope you have another toy instead :)

Do you remember number of turnbuckles and pinion size?

I have several :lol:. I think your going to want a pinion around a 20 or 21 to get some good speed . I tried mine with a 16 it was fairly slow, & i was using a very good lipo . . I personally would'nt worry about ti turnbuckles untill they bend or break . Two ti turn buckles come with the j82 kit . so you would only need 4 buckles . two upper turnbuckles & two lower tie rods .

Thanks rchippie!

I will start with 18T

Thats a good starting point . I built mine to the book & it handeled very well in my opinion. The only upgrade i made was to put green springs FR & RR . Thats how jason rouna set his up . In case you dont know the name . He is to owner of jconepts . You get a set of green springs in your kit . I dont remember if they are FR or RR .

Thanks! I have got some spare green springs as well :)
