Once I get it in the mail i will be ordering the RCM mount for it. I already have a spare 600xl custom delta 5 wound motor coming in the mail tomorrow Ill stick that in their aswell. Ill let you guys know what happends.

Good to see that your getting yet another one of your dream vehicles! lol


Hope you have good luck with this build.

Thanks PB. I sure hope that it gets here quick because you know how I am with patients...

Nice choice, keep us updated

So you're a doctor huh? How do you find the patience to deal with patients at all?

uh one thing, on the calculator, your spur and pinion values are swapped... :lol:

Looks like you need a 12t pinion to go 45

Yep just fixed it Ben. Ilpufxit, I meant patients as in not being patient...

You do realize your tire size values in the speed calculator are way off, right?

Buggy tires are typically 4.5-4.6" in diameter and there is no way you'll balloon buggy tires 0.9" in radius without ripping them off the wheels first.

That would be patience....not patients.

Yeah, and you also used 43 as the diff ratio instead of 3.3. Are you sure your buggy tires will end up being 7.1" in diameter?

Hmm, should have refreshed this page before posting, missed 4 posts.

yeah most buggy tires are 4.9 ish mine were 4.6

and 2 inches taller cuz of balooning? doubt that

Skellyo, I dont use the calc much so and i've never had a 1/8 buggy so the tire size was just an estimate by me. This is actually the first time Ive used it in one of my builds. BTW its fixed...

I think everything is fixed now. Am I correct?

thats why there are presets.... :lol:
