I would charge the receiver anywhere from 0.5 to 0.8 Amps. Max would be 1 Amp as they are AAA type cells. For the glow plug cells, I would charge it at 1 to 2 Amps as they are C type cells. Make sure the Apexi charger is able to charge 1 cell as the glow plug ignitor consist of 1 cell only. Not many chargers can charge a single cell. For the Tx pack if you have (AA cells), I would also do about 1 Amp for charging.
Thanks 'D' yep it can charge 1 .... 10 Ni-Cd / Ni-MH Cells

Try running a slightly narower front trackwidth like 199 mm or 198 mm. Try not to set the EPA of the steering servo to lock a lot at the end of the steering movement. Lastly, you could cut very small pieces of fuel tubing and insert it in the outdrive of the front ball diff to push the dogbones towards the drivecups. Make sure that upon suspension compression, the dogbones still have slight lateral play to avoid binding.

Cool. :cool: Does it use DC current? Make sure you get DC power supply unit that can supply clean direct current. I have a 14V / 10 Amps. Gives ample power for my KO BX213MH charger especially if I'm charging my 9 x AA Sanyo 2100 mAH Tx pack.

If you are very familiar around electronics, you could even get DC power supply cheaply. Think computer PS unit ! They provide very good and clean DC supplies and they come very cheap too.

Mark, those bearings take huge high RPM's so keep the oil as thin as possible
True but I don't think you need those bearings to be as smooth as possible. If you're talking about other places, then I would agree. Imagine, how much HP do you gain from making those 2 tiny small bearings smoother? I would not do it at the expense of reliability. That's just me. Although thin oil makes for smoother bearing, you need to maintain them very regularly. And I personally dislike the bearing oil splattering in the clutch bell making the clutch slip...

For your reff only, 1USD=Rp9000 at this moment. So those RETAIL price divided by 9000 is equal to USD.

Thanks for the link rwisejr, I'm going to get some from there. I noticed they only have the 42 and 45 shore tires?? Is that all they carry or are they just out of stock on the 40 shore tires??
