my 3s lipo blew up and set on fire in my basement yesterday.... while in my car:( but car has no damage. just need new batt and reciever cause the reciever melted
what do you do to keep your pinion gears on well, i have a mamba 8000kv and a microsidewinder esc with a 8.4v 2600mah battery and i cant keep my pinion gear on it always comes loose, just wondering how you keep yours on.
If your motor shaft dosent have a flat spot on it then you should make one with a dremal drill so when you tighten the pinion gear down it rests on the flat spot. I had the older mamba 8000kv motor in mine and i had to make it cause same thing kept happening to me.
hi there i wanted to know how do you install the mamba kit,could i use the stock reciever and do i just hook up the esc to the stock recieaver??if anyone could help my out i would realy appriciate it.
What you need to do is get a spoiler from a hobby store or old remote control car and attach it to it and maybe it would help it stay on the floor instead of flying lol.
no matter what you buy to make it bulletproof, with a brushless system and a 3cell lipo your always going to break something. lol
i have three mini t's one all alloy with a fullforce chassis, and the others with some alloy but mostly stock and every time i take em out to bash i end up breaking something.
thanks. also, i already hav the micro t. it is completely screwed up right now and its gonna cost bout 100-110 dollars to fix. so i dont think it is worth fixin it again.
ok man no offense but everyone that buys the micro t is an idiot. it breaks really really easily and i was at my LHS the other day and they said all hobby shots hate working on cars and trucks under 1/16 size so they charge more for labor on small cars and trucks. The reason they charge more is because its tiny tiny parts and fixing it is tedious as hell
my mini t goes through AA batteries like crazy. The run time for the first 5 mins is nice. The rechargable battery is much better, longer, and faster.
My radio setup here was a Airtronics MX-3FM and a Airtronics Micro RX. Now it has a Spektrum DX2 2.4g radio and RX. For a quick antenna tube fix use a drinking straw. If not the local hobby store. Hope that helped some.:]
mamba 8000 and mamba 25 esc by castle creations. if you get a brushless motor these are what you must buy:
brushless esc
27mhz reciever unit
micro steering servo
ni-mh or lipo battery pack
all metal gears
other modifications that are 'essential' are:
full ball bearings
oil filled shocks
and because you will be going so fast with that brushless motor you will crash alot and break the plastic parts. so you will need to replace the plastic chassis and parts with aluminium parts
Yeah duh! To reword for normal people: If you get an RC you must have: Matching receiver+transmitter Steering servo Battery pack You probably also should have: Full ball bearings Oil-filled shocks Foamed/glued/vented wheels For brushless you need: a brushless ESC and most of the above optionals You want full metal gearing
id consider it if the price is right. its all alloy except for the gear box. it has full force siver ally chassis, gh silver alloy f/r a-arms, gh f/r shock towers, gh f/r hubs & streering block, ball bearings all around,and the mamba comp x package motor & esc and spektrum dx2 2.4g radio and rx combo. i have well over $500. in this rc and afew more extras like lipo packs and spare alloy parts.
id might let it go for $275 - $300 without the radio system.let me know and ill email some pics.
what if i get the mini baja, it has a dsm radio system and i think a different servo??? and all for just a extra$50 or $60(dont know the price off the top of my head)
hey, im tryen 2 get my stock mini t to go faster with as little of parts needed, can i put a mamba .25 and a 8000kv motor and a lipo and have everything else stock?
dude i just got the 8000kv for my mini t off ebay and i am very scared of the power it will have and i dont have the motor yet but runing a trinity monster motor was alot of power to control how hard is this??
if i buy a brand new rc18t and a 8000k mamba motor for it what all do i need for it to work? do i just have to hook the moter up to the rc18t and it will work
get some deans battery plugs for it. it will give you better power! you might want to get a better RX/TX for it. sometime the stock radio gives you glishes.
I have a Duratrax IntelliPeak charger i use to charge my packs with, altough it says 1 to 8 cells only im sure it can charge 10cells it just might take longer to charge it.
yeah for a mamba system alone is around $119. but with a mini t and the mamba youll spend atleast $150 to 250. for it on ebay. i put over $500 in it because mine is all alloy.
im working on a vid of it,i have a little .15 rustler i messed around with and rammed a 2.5r race motor on that pretty squerrely.i posted a vid on that last night
