Good to hear... I am sticking with stock right now, but looking at options for a future upgrade. I really debating over whether or not to go with Tekno, Matrix, or the BCE chassis. CF has a lot of...

How does the chassis wear? I know that my chassis gets a fair amount of wear on it. Had to get a new bulkhead recently and noticed how thin section that pokes through the chassis got! It definitely...

I am not anywhere near an expert, but I have seen a crt .5 with a 2650kv CC. It's insane. Way too much motor for the thing, but it was doable. The guy who did it is known for his outrageous setups. I...

Crimefighters.



The wires do look a bit frayed (got the motor used), but they don't seem to be shorting.

Finnster, that is an interesting idea. I never thought of gearing up. I only have a...

Motor play?

Hey everybody,

So, I was replacing a spur gear today and noticed that the shaft on my motor (MMM 2200kv) had about 1mm of play (along the shaft length). I also noticed that there was a fine...
