Are you in any ways or form having any issues melting the solder from the wire to the bullets into the esc? I dont know why but for whatever reason i am melting the crap out of the solder everyday.
my old 1410 never did this, but i dont know why this one did it 3 times already
and before someone brings it up its not a crappy solder job either

My hobby shop just called and said they have diff gear sets in.
Would these be new and improved...new molds of gears, new pins...stronger blocks, stronger shims?

backorder
Not quite a technical question, but it seems the Losi guys read this thread. I have anxiously been waiting for my SCTE to come off backorder for over four weeks and now I was told (and confirmed by Horizon) that they won't be at my LHS until late August! I know on line retailers have them but I like to buy local (local small business myself). I don't mind waiting if there is a good reason, but nobody can tell me why I can't get one from my LHS for over 3 months! Anybody have any insights?
Thanks and been enjoying reading thread (almost all of it, whew).

I find it strange too. All three local shops don't have any and won't until Aug. Disappointing, but oh well. My RX8 esc is on backorder also. I'm thinking if I wait long enough Losi will have a TLR version

Got my BCE chassi today. Not exactly thrilled with it considering it was $100 it had a few issues.
First, all of the holes were not countersunk. I had to put it on my drill press and countersink 5 holes that were missed.
The screws for the battery tray don't line up well. I could get 2 of the 3 in but no matter what I did I couldnt get the 3rd in. Could only see the edge of the hole in the bottom of the battery tray thru the hole in the chassis. Had to open the hole on the chassis a little to get it together.
The aluminum hinge pin holders on both the front and rear would not fit over the chassis. The chassis was just a little to wide. Had to file the edge of the chassis down to get all of them on.
There is no anodizing at all on the chassis. It actually still had the 7075 paint markings that come on the raw sheet stock.
The good news is it's 62 g lighter than the stock part it replaced and the 7075 should prevent bending like I've done to 2 stock chassis now.
None of this is a game breaker and I was able to fix all of the issues myself but I have to say I am a bit disappointed having this come from a company with the reputation of BCE. I'm sure this is just first run issues that they will get worked out.

Lame Bro, all my holes were counter sunk. I did have the same trouble with the battery tray but kept fighting it until I got it screwed in. I'll be testing at 4pm at 4seasons RC today!

Anyone running the Novak Havak Pro 4.5 Truhe edition?
I can't get more than 3 minutes on it. The ESC two end lights blink. I temped it last night and both motor and ESC were 130ish. I think the lights mean lock rotor.
Has anyone experienced this? I have been told that Novak might have an issue with that motor.
Thanks,
Tom
