i called around to a few LHS today looking for Mod 1 pinions. No one carries the ones with the 3mm bore. Some told me the 32P pinions were close enough, and they had them in 1/8" bore.
I've not heard this before, anyone know if 32P pinions are close to Mod 1?
Also not sure if 3mm equates to 1/8"....To the Google!!!!

Just watch the endpoints, and anyone wanting to do so should be fine. I run direct power to my Spektrum RX, and have no issues with rx/servo/transponder. YMMV.

At 7.4V, the torque is 387oz/in and the speed is .13sec.

Looking for all of the SCTE diet options I can find. Chris is offering a TI hinge pin set, but I haven't seen anyone put TI turnbuckles on a SCTE yet. Will a TI turnbuckle set from an 8ight work on the SCTE? Are there other options?

lunsford makes a scte set.. I snagged the front four, leaving the stock rears for better f/r balance. There is a set on amain as well. What is the weight savings on the pins? I'd consider those.

Just to make sure im using this forum properly.. im not sure if it has been mentioned but someone posted how to get the grease out of the gears on the diffs. Its a common trick for 1/8 scale guys but I use a "diff dunker" (A-main) and a small mason jar full of Naptha solvent (hardware store). It works Great and fast to clean the gears.

how did it turn out?
just curious I seen that tip that was posted a little bit ago about how to run power from the battery straight to the reciever just curious about that instead of buying a bec, if I end up needing one.

I'm about to see if 7v will not fry my Savox 1258. I really don't need 400 of torque in a servo...man thats strong.

Sell that MMP and buy an RX8 and dont worry about running an external BEC or direct power . I got tired of bangin my head against the wall trying fixes for my MMP . Castle needs to address this issue once and for all IMO . Maybe if people stop using the MMP they will ?
Really not here to bash Castle as they are a great company and do make great products (I own 5 MMM systems and 2 MMP ESC's) I just think the MMP needs some beefing up .
