I glued a set up for a friends xxx sct.

Theyre nice. He wrecks a lot and they didn't break or distort.

I like the JC Hazard just bc theyre light and look cool. And who doesn't play the General Lee's Dixie horn note in their head when flying through the air every now and then.

So I finally finished rebuilding my transmission and am sad to say that the problem was not fixed. I followed the manual very carefully and when I turned it on it still clicked and did not accelerate. After a little bit of adjusting my motor would give out. It started by driving slower and slower and then finally died. It is not because of the battery, it's a lipo and had a good amount of juice in it. I have to come to the conclusion that the motor is the problem. Right now I am thinking on what motor to buy that has some good speed and is reliable. Thanks for all the feedback.

are you running 13.5? I ran casey's balistic 13.5 last week, it was nice. I normally run reedy sonics, but just started trying out the tekins. Honestly. I like the build of the reedy better. The tekin has an exposed endbell bearing and I am not a huge fan of that. But I will be at the track today running my tekin for the first time, so then I will be able to comment on its power. but honestly tekin or reedy are good. reedy is a little cheaper.

The novak ballistic 13.5 is the one that gave me problems and died today, thinking about getting a castle creations sidewinder(3800kv) I read some reviews on it and it seems to be really nice. Another good thing for me is that there is no soldering from the esc to the motor.Its has plug :nod:

On the note of aluminum, what is wrong with Putin an aluminum bulkhead, I have seen so many of them break at both the tracks I race at!!!

I think what a lot of folks think is that if you put an aluminum bulkhead in the front you are just going to break more arms. This is true. If you are hitting something hard enough to break a part, replacing that part with aluminum will most likely just transfer the force to the next plastic part. That being said, I would much rather replace an arm than the bulkhead so my bulkheads are aluminum.

I agree, I mean I am not a bad driver, I don't wreck but there is always the what if, or maybe, so I am looking at what others are breaking and then going with that :) so if I am racing and I happen to have a senior moment, then I wont be out cause I poped a bulk head or a c hub(as these are the parts I see bust the most, and I kno this because I am the one a lot of ppl have fix there stuff:D:lol: ) so I just wanna be safe than sorry:P

bds81175 04-13-2013 05:55 PM

The other nice thing about the aluminum bulkhead is, depending on what brand you get, you can set screw the hinge pins to remove more slop. Some slop is good....but going to Losi-slop is bad.
