I like the D3 or Revtech stuff. LRP motors are great but seem to like a bit of a different setup than the Trinity based mills.

hey guys so i finally got a tc6 on the way! I wanted to get the caster blocks from the tc6.1, can anyone tell me if they swap right into the tc6. my other question is, are there any immediate changes anyone recommends?

Before you buy a new motor, try a gear ratio down around 4.2. That's pretty safe for racing, but I'm not sure about bashing, so watch the temps. With a ballistic, you might be able to go even lower. 5.0 is pretty far off for a 17.5 without boost. Also, you can look at increasing the timing on the motor, as that makes a big difference.

Getting requests for a drop in dual bell crank for the 6.1

Good timing... We are testing a prototype and may go production on it. Stay tuned on our thread.

Well I decided that 5000kv would be too much and temps might become an issue. So I opted for a 4200kv 10.5 turn. I just bought a used stator for like 25 bucks. So good or bad, it's a cheap mod. And since 5.3 is already a pretty low gearing, I can gear up to 4.2 if temps aren't an issue and I want more speed. Unfortunately there aren't any tracks in my area. I'd love to be able to race.

I expect to be going about 40ish mph with a 10.5 and 5.3fdr. With the 17.5 my ESC wasn't even warm.

On a side note, I have the older GTB purple heatsink ESC and the guy I bought it from said he put it in "blinkymode" () to limit it's speed for technical carpet racing. But I'm looking over the insturctons and setup manuals and I don't see anything he might be referring to. As far as I can tell I don't think it even has a current limiter.

I know, he sent me a message about it. But i just need some 'original' in stock in case of i brake other stuff ;-)

Will it fit TC6's?
I have a second chassis and i would really like to give it a try.

Stick with the caster blocks you have. The TC5/6 blocks are stronger, and are in stock everywhere if replacements are needed. Some of the 6.1 parts have had breakage issues and spares have often been hard to come by.

A gear diff in the rear would be a nice first addition (and some of the Reflex soft shock bladders) but it will be absolutely fine as-is. Get a good setup on it and go from there.

It's always in 'blinky' mode, there's no boost on the GTB series.

It will fit both 6 and 6.1
