Hippies new toy
 

I orderd this today.

Nice, I am tempted to buy one, seen videos on it running a LRP brushless and just unstopable

Im plan on using a MM system or a sidewinder system. To start i plan on using my 7cell nimh packs for power .

A sidewinder would really be all you would need in a electric 1/10 unless you are planning to run some type of stupid motor/battery combo

No im thinking either the 5700kv or the 7700kv on my 7 cell packs untill i can afford trakpower lipo's.

She's cute - How much did she cost?

The J82 is so tempting, if I didn't have a Slash on order, I might have got myself a J82.

Looking forward to some pics.

Nice buggy! I'm looking forward to build pics.

BAH! what fun is a buggy:sleep:

I picked one of those up to convert my t4 about a month ago. Since my local indoor track lets me race it in truck class, I think it will be staying with the buggy tires for awhile. :)

System Choice
 

As you can see from the pics my J82 is built. Know in looking for a BL system for it. I plan on using my 7 cell nimh packs for know. I will get trakpower lipo's latter. So i was thinking about getting the sidewinder & 5700kv system or the MM & 5700kv system from castle. Im leaning towards the sidewinder system because of the low cost. Any thoughts ?.

I have just received RC10T4 Team and ordered J82 conversion. :party:

@skellyo
I wonder how many titanium turnbuckles are included in conversion kit and what pinion are you running with MM 5700?

I am going to use SW 5700kv and 2S 4000mAh hardcase Zippy LiPo :)

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 :)
