Thanks Donzii, just read the last two paragraphs, and I understand the point of water dipping, thanks.

I was looking for that!

Compressed air cans, and a little shot of WD40 will get rid of any water left on the arm as well. WD40 is great for getting water out of tight areas, and electrical connectors as well. (If you ever hose down your car's engine, and it fails to start or run bad, spray WD40 into the electrical connectors at the various sensor, and then plug them back in. WD40 forces out the water from the connectors, and helps to stop them from corroding from it too).

PM me asap.

I'll let the pics talk, the motor armature is now 22 turns...almost pattern-wound, one pole is almost pattern wound, the other 2 poles look like crap.

Um, I get this money multiple ways:

Allowance

And my friend gave me a 100 dollar check at my Baptism, Confirmation, and and first Eucharist ceremony at my school's church.

Novak over Castle.

Looking good. I still can't get over the looks of that clear chassis..

[2wdpancar]

Time to dig this up outta the gutters..
IT RUNS!
Did the programming, it works!
Yes! Victory at last!
Motor smells funny when it runs, I need to rewind the arm to like 33T from 22T, and lube up the comm.
Other than that..woot!

Video soon, road test tomorrrow?

Donzii...

[2wdpancar]

Crazy glue'd XMOD foams on, and rewound the arm to 33T of 30AWG, it just spins out, but once I get it out on the road, it should go, on my hardwood floor it just drifts.

[2wdpancar]

This thing took a BAD beating, I decided to drive it at school, and accidently ran it through water, but it works!
Let it sit and turn off everything, then it'll work, but the foams suck, I have to order some gpm 8deg front and rears off rcmart, and then I will use stock tires for now.

[theoriganalRiD3R1967]

this is probably a noob question but what does the 8 degrees mean smaller turning radiius?

Very soft tire.
There are 4 treads, I am goimg with D tread, I have b's now, but I like D tread, i plan to get 4 front D's 8 deg, and 4 8deg rear tires, so 16 total, 4 sets.
That will last not too long.

[XMDrifter]

the motor doesn't look too tightly wound in that picture
for all i know, in the near future, you're have wire shooting out of your motor can all over again if you keep using that arm in the pic
anyways, what's your mini-x look like right now?

[OneFastDC5]

Let's see some paint on that bad boy! Are these also 1:28 scale?

[Donziikid]

XMDrifter, this topic is slightly under three months old. On top of that, I believe BLT has sold the MiniX. Please refrain from bumping older topics, thanks.

Closed. BLT, if you still have this or still want it open, PM me.

Cheers,
Kyle.
