Is there any set ups for this car yet?

Or do I have to figure out my own?

The result in that race was no good at all...

However, it's hard to judge the car based on that. First of all, I'm no top class driver. Second, I got the car a few days before the race and did 2 packs with the car before qualifying started and had no spare parts...

Towards the end of the race I think the setup was about 80% there. It felt ok on the track in the end and looked ok. It still needed more work though to get it to be consistent and easy to drive over 5 minutes. I also would have needed to find 2-3 tenths in lap time.

I have been very busy lately so unfortunately I have not managed to run the car extensively after the race.

The car has many nice features and comes very nicely presented. On carpet (the only surface I have run it on) I would say it still needs some work to get it to perform optimally at the highest level. If this can be reached just by perfecting the setup or if it needs some developments - I'm not in a position to answer, due to my limited time with the car.

K Factory is proud to present the latest option part for the electric touring car. The TC Motor Cooling Head will fit the Team Magic E4 perfectly, as well as any other electric car with a transverse mounted motor.

The TC Motor Cooling Head is machined out of aluminium, anodized black and will effectively cool the motor due to a well thought-out design. Compared to most other heat sinks, the fins of the K Factory TC Motor Cooling Head is turned 90 degrees. By turning the fins this way air will be able to constantly pass through the heat sink. This means that the heat sink will be much more effective, using the airflow inside the car to help increase the cooling effect dramatically.

As to further improve the cooling effect, K Factory exclusively includes a special thermal pad with each TC Motor Cooling Head. The improved cooling effect of the TC Motor Cooling Head means that your motor will perform at its highest level for longer, perhaps giving you that crucial advantage needed! Efficiency will be dramatically improves, while a cooler motor also means less wear, prolonging the life of your favourite motor.

To give the TC Motor Cooling Head that K Factory look, the beautifully machined lightweight heat sink is anodized black and engraved with the K Factory logo.


Fits on most electric car with a transverse mounted motor

If they could incorporate a fan then it would be even better.
The nosram heatsink i think is the best.

I got the car put together today, But damn the belt is just way to tight. So right now I have the belt soaked to WD40 see how it feels tomorrow. Car was really easy to put together quality is very good, I can't believe how narrow the chassis is. I thought my MI3 have a narrowest chassis but not!!!!!!!!!!! I'm running brushless using GTB ESC so it will be a tight fit.....

I also used the tamiya spring, See how that works. But need to get some more HPI springs.....

I also need to get a low profile servo, standard servo is sticking out too far.

Well so far soo good. sucks that I can't run this car probably not till about next year....
