Hi there FurtiveZero, I got the mamba from Jon,
www.UnitedRC.com. You will need to have credit card in order to buy the mamba via PayPal. if you dont have credit card, PM me and i might be able to help you out.
He pack up the mamba setup nicely into a box and filled it up with the bits of foam. The mamba box itself is a very good quality type. hardtype box with foams to protect the parts in the box.
Believe me, I used to have something similar to big block. Just that less torgue, S300 and this mamba is uncomparable to big block, tuneS300 or 8 cells kyosho 280 motor. The speed and torque is nothing to mamba. I use 17T composite pinion and yet still get the desirable start up speed with some slipping. now i have to figure a way to reduce the rear ball differential slipping and the pinion slipping. perhaps i might go back to the stock rear gear differential. just to let you know, the hpi tires wore out fast with this motor. better prepare for this.
normally i ran my micro on my hostel parking lot. once in a while i ran it is astria track. dont really like the track cause it is so dusty and lotsa pebbles. i crack my body due to some crashes on the track and the pebbles, dust are killing me. the crack is not those normal crack, it is at those places unimaginable and luckily it still canbe use. parking lot are cleaner than the track and besides, it just a few steps away from my hostel in campus.
cheers~~
