Women do that too :005: .

RC or girls, its an IMPOSSIBLE decision!!! :030:

LST looks really good! Curious as to what turn the motor is? I'd guess 7XL.

Have you managed to get a top speed figure for it?

Sounds to me, like you really need a new Girl Neweuser..

[aqwut]

Ah... you gotta have both... the girls and the trucks..... You buy nice toys for the girl and she "LET'S" you buy nice toys for yourself..... :) that's my theory..

[Serum]

Yeah, i am looking for a pink shell...

[neweuser]

LOL, my girl has a Jato, Rustler, BL Emaxx with single speed that i just put in last night. So i think she is doing well. What do you guys think? I have a 3.3 Jato and a gmaxx....wait, how come she has more trucks than me? :( guess i need a new one!

[Serum]

And you are the one wining about your girl!?

Behave boy......

Mine is still in the 'need to learn how the car steers if it's running towards me' phase...

[sjcrss]

that's more than my wife...she would get a hold of my emaxx and touch the throttle and it was off, but she handles the rustler pretty good

[neweuser]

LOL, that's funny Serum! I never said she COULD drive, i said she has them TO drive! LOL, if you call it that. Ask Shayne, as he says, give her a little wine and she'll so better!

amen brother....when he was here visiting me....she took out my oldest boy with her emaxx ...smack in the ankle.....he was fine...but she felt bad....

thats so cool, but how does the pinion gear hook up the the shaft?

Nice truck man :) I am wondering how much it weighs? Mine is heavy as - bout 7.4Kg, but i am running 18 gp3700 nimh cells....

The pinion gears on mine can be changed by unscrewing them - same as with when it was nitro, and if you have a fellow who can make larger hardened gears (which i also have - 2+/4+ & 6+) - Mr Constructor (the fellow who created my beast), i'm sure would be more than happy to help if you have any q's :)

One thing i just thought tho - is that motor mount adjustable at all???

I run a lehner 2230, and not sure on your shaft size you will have there.... i'm sure serum will know tho :) The truck looks to run great in the video.... i need to go lipo too, so i can get rid of some weight, but i'm too pov atm hehehe :)

almost forgot - here's a pic of the pinion situation.... basically is secured with a set screw to mount to the motor shaft :)

7.4 kg! beefy... :p

How do you like your 2230?


I am ditching my heavy trucks... i like lightweight, my e-maxx weights a tad over 3kg, with 5S lipo.. i think 4 kg is a nice weight for a truck, too light is not too good either, makes them catchy for lift-off above 40 mph.. (or at least at the speed where you can hear the body vibrating of the wind...)

[jhautz]

3kg!:dft008: Wow... I think my rustler is heavier than your maxx. lol:005:

[aqwut]

3KG is beautiful.... Hey serum... would you mind giving me the whole setup spec on that 3KG maxx.... I'd love to build one just like that...
