just my take on the matter, im running a velineon 3500kv in a 3S configuration.. I'm still pushing it through the 6 gear and aside from having to replace old bearings, I havent had many problems. I did blow out my idlers and melt my spur but that was probably b/c of running 2.8" wheels at one p...

Is there any tool that i dont need to modify to make work. I've tried harbor frieght's tool but it doesnt get tight enough to remove it. I'v...

those look like rpm arms on the car, what carriers fit that?
