Re: Gear ratio help for T3

Just get a temp gun and more pinions. Your tire diameter makes a difference.

Re: who tried B4 wheels on B2?

On my 1 and only B2. I use B3 rear arms with B44 rear cvds.
This gives plenty of room for many wheel options. No bind at all.

6000kv killed the stock dog-bone.

If you can, a pic would be very helpful.
For me, bearings and cvd's make a smooth ride.

Re: what size lipo to use on brushed motor's?

The xl5 will handle 8 cells or 9.6 volts. So no problem with a 2S lipo,7.4 volts. I ran a 2S 5000 lipo through my sons xl5. The turns on the motor will matter more for the gearing, or heat issues. Not so much the battery, until you go to 3S. If you had a pic or the name of the Orion motor, I am sure...

Re: what kinda servos fit in an RC10B2????

Good to hear you got it worked out.
Since it does fit in so tight,
it will be the last thing to fall out when doing cartwheels !!!!!

Re: T2 buggy build

Looks good.
I am thinking about the extra wheel base,
it may actually be better for the more powerful motors these days.
May help keep the front down a little more.
Just a thought.

Re: RC10 B2

Just throwing this out there. I am using the B44 rear CVA kit on my B2. With B3 rear arms and B2 hubs. They do fit very nice, with no chance of falling out, or binding with shock fully compressed. Also it does make for the rear to be wider. Helps to keep it from rolling so often. The 6000kv motor is...

Re: Water proofing help!!

Plasti dip is very impressive stuff. After covering receiver board, then reassemble. I plug in servo and ESC wires and apply more. I use servo extensions also so I can unplug when using ESC card or pulling parts out for repair. If not extra plugs, you can still remove them. Plasti dip is just a rubb...

Either take apart ESC and spray board. Or brush around crack of ESC where bottom meets heat sink. Just make sure to keep off heat sink...

Re: brushless please help

The lipo will give you full power from battery, until the cut off. With NIMH ,vehicle slows down as the battery discharges. You will not have this with lipo. Lipo will feel fresh the whole 20-30 min., then instant cut off. 7 cell nimh is still good with brushless. My lipo and ESC never get warm. NIM...

Re: brushless please help

I may very well be the cheapest person on here. I run the ezrun systems in my B2 and sons Bandit. The 4000kv motor in the B2 was very nice. Instant wheelies and good control. With 2S 5000 lipo. He now has the 4000kv in the Bandit. Now the B2 has the 6000kv with 2s lipo and is crazy fast. I stay most...
