Sweet...On my mbx5T I run a 1520 on 5s w/the mmm esc and it is sweet. BEFORE you add brushless power, make sure to check diffs for correct shimming. In my haste to get my running, I forgot to check them and blew front and rear. Nitro running is a little more forgiving than BL power.
Have fun! |
Thank you sir :mdr:
Thanks for the tip, I was just going to run it, but I will check the diffs now :lol: |

Thats the plan for this one too, its going to be a basher.. I was trying to see what my revolvers and badlands looked like on it, the sad part is I already misplaced the hex bolt! Noobs eh :grrrrrr:
But it looks good :lol: Thanks for the tip on the diff fluids, Ill try it out :) |
I race with a prospec mbx5t, it takes a lot of abuse without any wear, I only broke some front lower arm on very bad landings at high speed but every other truggies would have broke too... You will be happy with it !
+1 on the diffs shimming, use washers to ajust correctly the mesh between spur and bevel gear. I ran 150 batteries and my diffs are unused. Mugen drivetrains are the most invulnerable drivetrains, exactly what we need for brushless power :D My setup for racing : 30K, 15K, 10K. |
Thanks man :) After watching a ton of vids on youtube while at work, this thing is going to be badass I think.. Theres alot of nice ones on here too, some awsome info to be had :) I get my conversion kit in a few days woooo :)
|
nice truggy bud! are you going to be racing it?
|
Thanks man! To be honest Ive never been on a track before :(
Out of my group of friends, it seems that I am the last one to own an rc.. Driveing by yourself is ok now and then, but not all the time.. So I may get into it a little bit. I thought the 5 was a total badass, but it appears there are some newer flashier models, so Im not sure how competitive I would be, but it doesnt hurt to try! I have some VTR's that I can use for now.. We will see how it goes next year tho :) I wanted to try raceing my revo at one point, but never got around to it.. This thing totally outclasses it in every single way! |

all my friends do is sit on their bums all day and play "call of duty" me no call of duty, i like spend me money on my favorite toys, but when winter comes ill play cod. :na: to be honest i think your truggy and your E-revo could out run some people on the track:mdr: you just got to try and see if your competitive. wish you the best of luck! and No problem :tongue: |
Hehehe maybe :)
Dont get me wrong, I love cod too, but this is summer, we have long winters, so I like to get my rc time in when I can heheh. In the winter Ill get back to pwning noobs and masters alike :) Thanks for the faith in my toys :) I think I would do ok, I would have to get used to being on a track. As for driving, I think Im pretty decent, and I could probably be competitive. I just give myself a hard time because I havent been on a track. My Revo is set up so sweet right now, I still <3 her :) |
Eliminator-RC is having a race this weekend, come out to race. It is not overly competitive and it is always tons of fun. And they also have great random prizes:party:
|
That works good for me too, because usually everytime they have a race on, I have to work! I think Ill see you there :) Mine will be the black beetle !
|
Great, also i believe you need to prepay to have the roast pig (Race for the pig)
and I will have the ERBE with red rims and a red wing |
Thats no problem, I love dead animal cooked over fire, makes me feel closer to my inner caveman, ugg :)
If you dont mind me asking, what pinion and spur do you run at their track? |
