It all makes sense now. I should have said the 410 sounds like an 8th scale but not as loud as an 8th scale. And yes, I scoured Oople, TD, and Petitrc for tips, and set up info. Thanks.

I had to fit a heat sink on the esc in the end (no fan needed) but it doesn't interfere with the wiring.

It's only a V2 but I am loving it so far.

Beautifully done. Where do you mount the transponder? Also it appears you routed the servo wire? Mine is on the same side as the servo saver. Not many places to run it without it rubbing on the linkage. The Spektrum micro receiver makes life a lot easier. That thing is small!

Regarding FRONT wheels for the V3......

Are they out yet?

Do you use these old ones? (http://www.amainhobbies.com/product_...l-Set-Yellow-2)

Are we going to just be using the Dex210 Borrego front wheels?

Keep in mind, I don't own a 410 (old one or v3) and don't know the bolt pattern of either. The new v3 looks like a 14mm hex, but usure of offset. Thanks!!

Apparently it gave a little better stability and smoothed out the steering due to the geometry changes.

Keep us posted! I'm interested to hear the results. A less twitchy 410. That's money right there.......

So are the Nano's too heavy or should i shoot for a smaller Mah? I like the nano's they are high quality at a low price. I run them in my 1/8 808 xray.

If everything works out, DE Racing should have 14mm hex front wheels out in 2-3 weeks

He lives and he posts! Nice run last night--you are making it difficult for me to stay ahead of you. Pizza Feast will be fun so you should come and race some wheeler--I bet there might be 2 heats . . .
