I thought that I could skip the bar on the back.:cool: If I remember it was designed for the feigos and not needed for all motors. Just saw your edit Dafni.;) shorting,shortening:L:

You all amaze me with your ability to speak multiple languages. I commend you. Although, I still giggle from time to time.:cool:

The lehners supposed to run cooler. Do you think you going to need the heat sink? I like the rc so far. I am curious to how the motor does.

I dunno? The heat sink can not hurt. As long as I do not screw it up.:W: But thats what you guys are for. Assembly by consensus.


Main Entry: con·sen·sus
Pronunciation: k&n-'sen(t)-s&s
Function: noun
Usage: often attributive
Etymology: Latin, from consentire
1 a : general agreement : UNANIMITY b : the judgment arrived at by most of those concerned
2 : group solidarity in sentiment and belief
usage The phrase consensus of opinion, which is not actually redundant (see sense 1a; the sense that takes the phrase is slightly older), has been so often claimed to be a redundancy that many writers avoid it. You are safe in using consensus alone when it is clear you mean consensus of opinion, and most writers in fact do so.

You won't screw up unless you put the bar on back. That may be problems.

A heatsink (or a fan) never hurts. Displaced heat is always a good thing.

Papa, thanks for the english lesson! :D Some words are just the same in my lingo.
And yeah, sometimes I giggle about my own posts, too. :L:

I am getting a small order together of different pieces and parts.In My cart are the Gmaxx extension, and a couple of 3.5mm plugs.

1: It sounds like I ought to add the UBEC? Is that a good idea?
2: I need some 4mm pinions. I'll get a range of 3 to get the gearing right. Where should I start?
3:I need a couple of fans. Mike can you add one for the heatsink motormount, and one or two for the controler. What do you think is best?
4: Mike, If you have a UE titanium center shaft for the exteded chassis, I'll take one.

Any thing else?

Should I order through the store? There are a couple of things not in the store. Do you think I'll get a PM from Mike to go over things? :C:

[coolhandcountry]

Pm him or email mike seem best. Do you know the tire you going to run? What about the spur mod 1 or 32 pitch? Have weight on the truck? It should be fairly light though. What about cell count as well?

[Dafni]

You can also send Mike an e-mail with your list, if you want some extra-ordinairy parts (he can get you most anything RC-related)

An UBEC is a good idea. I would recommend it.

I assume you have a 51t mod1 spur, right?
You could calculate the gearing yourself, or use one of those spreadsheets that guys made and contributed to the forum.
I guess your motor should be able to push your maxx to 40mph without much worries. Mid 30's is a good starting point.

I was just writing an e-mail. To Mike

Tire= standard crimefighter
Gear= strobe slipper, I think it is mod1?, single speed, UE 1/8 diffs
weight= tbd
cells=lipo 2@2s2p scorpion I think

Thanks to everyone for your help! It helps take away some of the anxiety.:D

[Batfish]

Just as an FYI:
The store will have more and more items soon, so everyone should be able to shop via the store instead of email. This should make the entire process easier for everyone involved :)

[coolhandcountry]

12 -14 seems to be a good starting point. I think 14 sound good. I may be wrong on this. I think the ubec is a great investment. Do you have the site on the scropions papa or someone. IF you running the strobe slipper it is mod 1 51 tooth.

Scorpion Packs

I forsee problems..

They are cheaper from FMA than from towers.. Is this always the case in RC land that the manufacturer kills the 2nd chain in the sales line? (have seen it a few times before)
