What's a Nihm???










Oh, do you mean those batteries the egyptians used for thier flashlights so they could build the pyramids at night?

Go to hobbycity.com get a Zippy 4000mah (not, NOT the 5000! wont fit), hardcase, 2S1P packs for $35.

You'll have to put a little notch in the chassis for the wires to come out the side. Otherwise it fits fine. I have 3, no problems yet, stays right along side other exact same trucks running $120 batteries on the straight.

yes what he says is true those lipo's are the s#@T for the price you cant beat'em!! i've used orion platnum series lipo's and i like zippy's better!!!

I dumped the stock battery hold down and went with an aluminum one from STRC racing. Works with every battery I have with no problems.

hey defect, which 5000 doesnt fit? http://hobbyking.com/hobbycity/store...dProduct=10098
this one?

Those are new!!!!11!!

Looks like they'll fit those are the same dimensions as my packs! And the wires come out of the top finally!

These are what I've been running:

Too bad they can't keep them in stock for very long. :(

Thay are never in stock, Anyone have any feedback on the FT battery hold down?

Umm is that price correct on that Lipo? 19.79!? Gotta be a catch or something!!?

They give you discounts as you buy stuff, my price for those packs is 17.19, there is no catch, you are just paying a reasonable price, shipping is a little more but buy in bulk to save, for example, I calculated the cost of 4 packs with shipping and it came to 98.19.

Thats exactly what I had planned on doing. gonna buy 5 and just wait for them to restock. If something was to happen to one of the batteries I wouldn't feel no where near as bad to toss it as I would an $80 pack.

just got one. haven't installed yet but looks nice. will have to relocate my esc since i run it in front of the tranny but i can run the battery all the way back. will be running it on friday...

I always build shock with green slime, this wasnt my first RC. They still leak and fade like crap.

I see a rear sway bar, what effect does it have on this truck??? Does it decrease rear traction and make the rear slide, or does it decrease the chassis roll enough to reduce the steering?

Are you guys running diff fluid or shock oil in the diff? I put a SC10 gear diff in a dirt oval car and am looking for some tips.

i run 5000wt diff oil in my gear diff a bit of a hand full but drifting corners with a little loose slipper makes for a tq in the first round of racing today..
then they watter and i fall back to mid pack as tq is now making 14 laps and i am only making 12/13 i need to dial in the truck a bit more for wight.
