Yo - thecoldone,
One of the best things you can buy for yourself is a good quality Battery Charger like the Swallow 2 or similar.
They charge everything and it also saves on having 1/2 million of those crappy ( =usually black)
chargers everywhere that usually
1- look the same
2- Take ages to charge
3- dont give you any useful info on the battery
4- I'm sure there's more things that sukc about those chargers but i cant remember right now...lol

Re your tuning issues.
Go down to your local track or wherever there are some RC'ers having a bash and ask them to give you a hand.
RCers are very helpfull if you ask them nicely and are usually always ready to help. ( in my experience anyway)lol
If you can get someone to actually show you what 'this thing' and 'that gizmo' does it can help a great deal.
Cheers, Kal

Hey ffactory666 the Jammin SBB are pretty much a straight swap. All you will need to get is longer screws. I had to get m3x35 for mine, although m3x32 would probably be long enough (if available).

I'm also looking for a new engine, but not sure which one hyper28, GO.25, STS D28Pro or STS D30M... any suggestion guys? it's not for racing, just bashing around, sometimes I even install Pirate Sport MT tires, they are huge! that's why i'm looking for a new stronger engine, I do have Hyper ST RTR and pro tires, but that tires just badass!
below are my Hyper ST with pirate tires and my GS CL-1 (yeah it's a 1/8 buggy)

Well i'm currently running my Go 7Port (modded) in my ST with a 16T CB and it screams.
Just bashing atm, but going to start racing soonish and i'm gonna be putting the OS XZ 28 Truggy engine in it when i get the cash.

In case I haven't been clear.......RACE WITH THE GO ENGINE!!! If/when it finaly poops out, then buy that badass OS if you must (or just buy a Picco/Jammin or another Go).

Save that cash for tires, fuel (getting more expensive by the day BTW), gas for the drive to/from the track (also getting more expensive...), and entry fees. Your Go engine is plenty for racing. I doubt you'll be able to drive any faster after droppping in that OS Beast. I know I'm not good enough to make use of the power difference between the two mills. Upgrade your radio and/or servos if you need to. Buy some good tools (hex wrenches, etc). You get the picture.

Hey Arct1k, That is friggen awesome! I love it. I have thought about doing this in a buggy, how did you go about selecting your motor gearing? Also the ESC, MMM - is that the Mamba Monster Max?
#120
Thanks - Yes it has a MM in at the moment as my MMM failed - But it will run a MMM (Monster Mamba Max) when v2 is available.
Any tips or setup sheets for the ST Pro?
What shocks are people changing to? Threaded CRTs?
Any spares I should stock up on?
