Nice video! Truck seems like it drives nice. Still waiting for mine to come. No issues with pinion gear or steering? I have been hearing alot of issues. Anyways good job.
no issues really. but it's tricky to drive. in the videos you can see, that it swings a little from one side to the other at high speed, almost impossible to go just straight. there is a setting on the radio to alter sensitivity of the steering, that helps a little.
the battery lasted about half an hour, mostly cruising around. the Lipo has only seen one loading cycle so far, i expect better performance after 4-5 cycles.
i will not buy a new Lipo before spring next year, probably a 2S with 30-40C and 4000-5000mAh. a 3S is only necessary if you want to hit the speed limit (65mph) because of the direct relation between the voltage and the rpm. i don't plan to do that, because i intend to jump and back-flip where speed is not the issue.

Hey buddy,
Nice video !
Do you have any 3S Lipo (like Plazma 11.1V 3800 mah) to try ?
Look forward to see more videos/speed runs !
Thanks !
