Right now I am running 15k front and 3K rear...........

That is a very cool looking body. I usually do not like cab-forward bodies, but this one is nicely executed. I just wish their site had an english conversion, i had to google it to find it on Red RC. Thanks!

Well, just finished rewiring the electronics on my DEX410. It took me a while because the space is very small. Got a MYLAPS transponder to fit in between the motor and ESC. The TEKIN RS PRO fits very well. Good thing the Futaba RX didn't give me any problems. Some pix. I hope you guys like it.

Hmmm, to be honest with you. I have no idea because I got this DEX410 used from a fellow member here...I like it better than the stock plastic battery strap though.

lol. . . . . i wondered why that car looked so familiar. . . .

the strap is half of a xray t1 fk05 upper deck . . . . .it dropped on there like a glove to allow use of much bigger cells

plus it let me move the batteries back to better balance the car

anonymous: Thanks for catching me there man...the car runs like a dream!!! I put in a 9.5 but it didn't go as fast as I should even when I geared it to the max..It now has a 5.5 with a 18T pinion...I'll test it at our local track and see how she goes....

(You're right, it weighs like a small cow!!!)
