TIA.

What receiver do you have? My airtronics has 2 aux ports

You'll either need to purchase a receiver with one more channel or I believe they make splitters. If your getting a flysky radio aren't their receivers like 7$ or some crazy cheap price? If so I'd just get a new receiver.

Well I know this is a light chance, but anyone that is looking to sell their big bores, you are welcome to hit me up with how much you are asking.. Or if you are able to get them cheap and you want to make some money hit me up also.

Thanks..

Theyre $45.99 at my local track per set plus tax, but they don't get anymore in for a week I believe. Is that relatively cheap or expensive?

Here's my centered setup. Not quite finished yet, I have a Proline bulldog losi 22 body on the way. I am going to cut down the chassis to fit in the losi body, and attach a 4mm carbon fiber strip to each side of the chassis to maintain rigidity. Also I have already thrown my car on my scales, and the weight distribution is more equal side to side, but identical front to rear. So all in all great, and on the track the car is much easier to control in the air while jumping, easier to land correctly, and does not want to roll as much do to the weight being so low and centered.

I am flipping between a gear diff and a ball diff. I found my old t4 parts box that has a pretty much new tranny but it uses the old standard bearings for the diff. Checking the manuals it looks like the only thing I would need is the new tranny case (9826) and the new 10x16mm bearings (9832), Is that right? That would let me swap trannys when I want to switch instead of opening the one on the car each time.

How did my wiring job come out? Eventually I am going to mount the transponder to the left of the servo, next to the steering rack. But right now I have to swap between 2 vehicles :rolleyes:

My understanding is you can plug a glitchbuster into any open channel. Does not have to be aux.

The weight bias left to right is usually spot on at 50% left-to-right, and front to rear bias should NOT be close to 50% front-to-rear unless you are running on carpet/ astro.

Correct. But at the same time all channels after steering and speedo are aux channels. He just doesn't have any open slots regardless of label

Looks good. What ball cups are you running?

Wildcat1971 11-14-2012 06:55 AM

I think those are Lunsford/JConcepts cups
