Deans b/c thats what I have on the big Slash, and the TRX connectors are so hard to pull apart/connect. Another battery would probably come when I get the adapter so its wont take 6 hours to charge each battery.

oh my bad it was the 1/16th lol

lol well for those of us that dont have the time to stare at batteries.....

Lol you don't need to sit there and stare at the battery, just make yourself busy wrenching on one of your RC's in the same room as the battery and have a fire extinguisher around incase something happens. I've got a huge extinguisher that sits around, just incase.

Any household should have a fire extinguisher, only makes sense. And, that kid is nuts.. but he did a good thing.

he's nuts but saved his house and possibly his life, i think getting 2nd degree burns is a lot better than death.. specially at this age |
Well yesterday I went to the hobby store, and emptied my bank account, for a TRX-Tamiya plug (so I can charge it), a parallel connector, a series connector, and another battery. I took mini Slash out on almost empty batteries and the series connector, and it was FAST! My crazy friend was over, and he was chasing it, but he was having a tough time keeping up with it, and when I made a quick turn, he slipped in the road, and went down. It was funny. But on the mini-Slash topic, with the two batteries, it had much more torque! The thing was super fast, on the brushed motor! I cant imagine what it'll act like when the VXL is installed. I have yet to try the parallel connector, but I know it'll come in the most handy when the VXL is installed, and already is fast. It is a bit lower though. Trying to decide whether or not thats good (lower COG) or bad (bottoming out).

a) use harder springs or b) use heavier WT oil in the shocks(i use this cause.. well.. im used to it) but some people like driving knowing they can bottom out.. bottoming out sometimes helps if you need to slow down, but it doesnt help when u lose traction and you do a 180 and start going the other way.. lol i say, experiment, see what you like, and just drive it that way..... for my rustler, i liked to when it bottoms out, cause then i can limit myself on what height jumps and what i can and cant do.. if i wasnt careful, my punishment would be bottoming out |

Just got the new motor in the mail today, and instead of starting a new thread, I think I should just ask them in here. Why break-in the motor? Would it make that much of a difference if all I'm doing is bashing? What is the best way to break-in the motor? If this needs the be broken in, why dont Xmod motors need to be broken in?
Thanks to anyone who answers these questions! |
is it the brushless motor? or just another brushed motor
not sure how to break it in.. i really dont care once i get a new motor.. lmao but we are supposed to break in all brushed motors, no matter what.. breaking it in, gives it longer life, and better performance |
Traxxas sent me a brushed motor replacement for free, which I am very happy about. What things do you put the non-broken-in motors in mycrors4? You bash or race?
