I was wondering why I found so much posts and youtube videos about the Tenshock 411, and hardly anything about the HW 3656SD.
I'd love to see a race with a Scte with that motor in it just to see how it performs.

Are axles just a part that needs replaced from time to time?
Are tekno more durable? Are there direct replacement teknos?
Thanks

I have heard of people having them bind up but it seems different from SCTE to SCTE because I personally didn't have a problem.
Just my 2 cents.

Seems that would occur more with chassis flex, and I assumed the MIP setup would be a bit more stiff with it's brace. I know I bent one with the stock chassis and stock plastic brace.

Newbie Questions - 2S vs 3S
Hi - these are newbies question, but please bear with me...
I understand that with a 3S system it is more efficient than a 2S system and seems to power the truck more easily, just needing to get the right KV motor to put it in the 30K -> 40K rpm range, and then the right pinion gear...
Question 1:
However do you also need the same type of C rating to be able to match the load regardless of # volts?
Eg I am currently using the 2S NanoTech 6600's rated at 65C-130C. If I had a 3S with 6600, would I still be looking for something with the same C rating, or would it not require as high a C rating?
Question 2:
When using a friend's SCTE on 3S 5000mAh, I noticed the batteries were heaps heavier than my 2S 6600mAh's and my 2S 5000mAh's. Although the power was great this significantly affected handling. Are all 3S's that heavy? or is is just the ones he got?
Thanks in advance for your wisdom.
