My GCM Desertboy-17 (Flux)

[Savage03]

$80 isnt bad at all, im in Ca so that would be a fast delivery. Thanks for the info both of you I will check em both when im ready. Next step is a radio which is $200 looking at the dx3s.
So what does everyone think about my current gearing? Double checked and my other pinion is a 17t only 2 I have right now. Thanks

Bear with me, so if I were to say buy 2 of these and wired right I would have 9000mah? and be 4s?

wired in series you'll have 4s with 4500mah

wired parraelle you'll have 2s with 9000mah

There are 5000mah packs with 40C also availible, spend a few more bucks and get the higher C-rating packs if budget allows

agreed on the high c rating. high capacity x high c makes a nice stable battery. worth the extra cash in these big trucks (in my experience anyway) like bondonutz says
your clutch spring thing is cool. so there's a thrust bearing in there also, and the washer-spring thing?

Yes their is, Kershaw sells these for like $8 works to.
