vxl motor runs great in the .5

On a 8000mah 2s what run times would I see just playin around?

What are a few upgrades that are must haves?

How would this motor work? http://www.hobbycity.com/hobbycity/s...300kv_Inrunner

You don't really need any... I switched to alloy rear hubs, front knuckles, and alloy braces. Not that this truck needs any of it, but I like the bling. I've only managed to break one turnbuckle and one front arm in over a year of owning this truck. I'd say the only upgrade that you'd really want is a longer chassis (rcm, bce, or ofna). The ext chassis isn't really needed, but its nice to have a full size servo in there.

As for the turnigy motor, I have no experience with them, but I hear they are not very good. Your VXL should be better.

Ok I'll stick with the vxl.

Ok I have a problem.:lol: I have no clue what to use for a battery tray. Can anybody help me. How well would a rcm battery tray work? How could I mount it? I will be using Rhino 4900 3s lipos. Here is a link:http://www.hobbycity.com/hobbycity/s...0C_Lipoly_Pack

mine is made out of plexi....I didnt build it but it looks very easy....check out my thread maybe get some ideas

theres not much room in a crt.5 to lay the battery flat...so most bats have to go on there side

I used a axial battery mount from my ax-10. It has holes in it that you can use to mount it to the chassis. The back hole fits in the motor screw slot. The front hole has to be drilled. Then the battery stays in place using the velcro straps. I can snap a pic of it tonight when I get home from work.

Thanks.

Kinda off topic but look at this:

This lol:http://www.amainhobbies.com/product_...ducts_id/27643 Can it be a neu for under $200?

Can somebody tell me how much room there is from the center diff to the edge of the chassis on the left side?

id like to know that too!

wana see if you can fit a bigger fuel tank. maybe something like 100cc....or 125cc if possible!

Nobody? I need to know so I can make a battery tray.
