1st post!: Just made a big purchase from RC Mart, whatcha guys think?

[SlickEVO]

So, right off the top of my head, I ordered:

Tamiya Hyper-Dash 2 Motor
Atomic Elastic Antenna- 2nd edition-blue
Topcad wheels- Black. (They're sweet!)
2 topcad tire sets- 15 degrees
Rear diff and CVD joint- both in blue
Some Yeah Racing sealed bearings.
RCmart and Tamiya stickers.
Black lug nuts
Trinity Comm. Drops
Tire glue.
All for $105 shipped.


What do you guys think of that? Good products or no? BTW- Wil the Hyper-Dash burn my FET's?

yea the hyper dash 2 will work in evo on stock fets but u need them for a gen 1. I have a h-d 2 in my mustang (EVO) and it does fine but on pimpmymod it says u need FETs for gen.1. So it can depend on what you got for a car.BTW nice oder you got there.

[SlickEVO]

Good to hear! So is it a nice improvement over S2? Do you think I could've gone higher, like maybe a PlasmaDash?

well it depends on what powersource you've got.

Get lithium ion batterys.

[SlickEVO]

Way ahead of ya. I've had Li-Poly's for around a month!

[crunk rida]

nice, sounds like uv got a good setup now get some 16awg wire and a nelly and u got a pro setup.

[xmodalloy]

I dont think you can put li-poly's on a stiletto chassis.

ok whats ur setup? is it a gen1 or a EVO or a gevo? LOL CRUNK!

[xmodalloy]

Evo, du.

Li-polys=evo.

no u can put lipos on a gen 1.

[SlickEVO]

EVO
Woah Nelly Li-Po's
S2 motor
all suspension stuff
Undecided on body (want something light, but doesn't look like crap, like the AM Nascar's)
A few alloy bits.

thats nice man!

[SlickEVO]

Oh yeah, forgot- 18AWG wire too.

[xmodalloy]

Whats 18awg wire?

bigger better than the stock 20-22? ga. wire that comes stock in a mxod. Helps with more current flow.

[snobro]

yeah but don't go any bigger than 18awg unless you want even upgraded fets to swell after a few runs. also stay away from copper wiring it's bad news in an x-mod due to higher current flow. so just stick with 18 and you'll be good. also i'd like to see pics when it's done if you can get some.

[punishment]

the plasmadash will need atleast a 4x4 FET upgrade.
the motor you have purchased, will work fine with an evo.
Although you might be pushing the resistance with the lii-poly's and the motor.

10 to 1 the fets will more less fry.

Ha, too late. Already running straight copper 18AWG to the motors, stranded 18AWG on the batts. Oh well, I think I'll be fine.
