My BL muggy conv.

[Mozzy]

Thanks guy's.

If you saw my sig, you'll see I changed it to the motor I got from Impakt, except, it's the Tekno version, no holes & blue. Oh & crappy 4mm bullets (no offence), which I have to swap for the 6.5's on the Mamba Monster.

Yeah, good old Chris from FD charged a $50USD amount to my CC for no reason whatsoever.

I've lodged the theft with my bank & emailed him to send me my MM's & return the money. I will flame that prick at every opportunity I can get!!! It's blatant robbery.

If it comes to it & I don't get my ESC's & money back, I'll fly over & kick him in the head as the airfare cost will surely be worth it!!

I truly despise dishonest people!

Sorry for the hijack dude, as you can see I'm a little annoyed to say the least.

That first link is the exact motor I bought, then they went out of stock, phew(!), I was lucky!!!

[roweder]

well, I'm glad I could help!

I thought the 1700kV motor said that it was out of stock when I put the link there?

I found out what Kaz The Minotaur said about fine design. he said that fine design's "Nemisis" motors are Feigao motors painted a different color.

I have no problems with the stock plastic shocks w/40wt oil, The black springs seem a bit light, I have a set of the yellow springs but have not tried them yet.

What do you guys think, should I upgrade my charger and go with a 6S pack? Or should I keep my 5S max losi charger and stay with a 5S pack?

if you guys think i should upgrade, which charger do you think i should get?

Edit: since the Mamba Monster Combo isn't going to be availiable for so long, I'll have enough time (in paychecks) to spend $300 on a charger and still be able to get the battery soon after I get the combo.

try the Imax b6 charger and a standalone balancer

[roweder]

thanks, I'll keep that one in mind.

anyone have any opinions on these?:

I chose the Thunder Power charger because it can charge up to 10S at 10A! It also charges up to 30 ni-mh/ni-cd cells and 10 A123 cells, and up to 24v pb batteries!

I also got the TP-210V li-po balancer, the charger and the balancer communicate during charging.

and I got the Dynamite 12v/10A power supply

Horizon sent me another xcelorin system, and this one is broken too. It seems that the ESC is working correctly, but whenever the motor gets up to speed it squeels and stops and the esc gets real toasty.

this is the 4th bad xcelorin system I've had so far, I'm getting pissed

What are you running it in when it squeals and stops?

I got a little adventurous again, here's the losi li-po charger, it comes apart easy and there's pretty much no way to break the charger taking it apart:

[Mozzy]

Hmmmmmm, & this is a Losi product.

I'm beginning to wonder how their 1/8 systems will be.

I'm using both stock Muggy shocks & LST 2 shocks with RC Raven dual rate springs on the back & yellow Losi's on the front of my LST. Never blown a shock & handles fantastic. I never wind the screw on the shocks down, I keep it wound just enough to stop the spring falling out of the retainers at full extension.

Just to quash the confusion, it's a full set of each with the same springs on both. I use the Muggy shocks for smoother tracks with lower jumps.

Awesome avatar Gooberseptember, where'd you get it? Just wondering if there are other pics on the site.
