I bought 1 secondhand vector and 1 veteq stripped them of the servo's and engine stuff and sold the chassis again. Bought them for 900 euro's. I got 2 RB C4C engines and 2 futaba 9404 servo's, 1 sanwa vb and a hitec 545 with 2 recievers. Got about 200 euro back for the 2 rolling chassis so got a good deal on the engines and the rest of the stuff.:cool:
The RB are running superb and the servo's andso are working excellent ( now also in my 710 ):D Get your vector nt up and running Mark it will make you just as happy as the 710. Although the nt series is a bit more difficult to work on it 's a very good car. I think you'll be amazed to see that the speed difference compared to the 710 isn't that much 'cause the little 710 is very leight so power to weight ratio is allmost the same as a 1/8 scale. It looks faster because it's bigger |

:D I know what you mean. I like my 950r but now with the 710 it's really fun. I started with a 1/8 scale so the 710 is more forgiving. Man that thing is really awesome to drive compared to my 950r.
Still learning everything for my 950r. The main differnce is the space you have on the track. With a 1/8 the driving line is smaller so when not on the racingline the car has less grip. With the 710 that racingline is bigger so more space when you make a mistake also the 710 really reacts very good to my steering movements when correcting it and has awesome grip ( a little too much when breaking my rearshocktower due tractionroll ):lol: This is the track I race on. We drive counterclockwise and the track is very fast. Did 16/17 sec while running in my engine. 13,49 is the trackrecord with 1/8 car. |
Re: What's this thing?
Originally posted by markp27 http://shop.the-border.nl/customer/p...cat=331&page=1 Is this a pressure regulator for the engine - saw something similar at the race last week. The guy with the 710 had some attachment which meant that the fuel system remained pressuried even during no throttle - he said it was analogous to using a capacitor on an electric motor. He said it really helped the pick up out of the corners. Anyone have experience of this? between pipe to the tank? or between tank to the engine? or between the pipe to the engine? (:lol: :lol: :lol: ) IF they install this thing between the pipe and tank... it would probably VOLUME INCREASE CANISTER.... as discussed here: VOLUME INCREASE CANISTER THREAD i hope that is correct? am i? :tire: mop:tire: |

NICE TRACK THERE!
Originally posted by Herbie :D Oops forgot the picture sorry i wish i have that kind of track here at my place. 13.5 secs for 1/8th maybe 16-18 secs for 1/10th? its BIG!!!!! :nod: :nod: :nod: :tire: mop:tire: |

So tire swap every 1 or 2 tanks. The corner at the end of the straight is banked so you can take it fast too. The only corner where we brake is the last corner for the pitlane. |

Originally posted by markp27 Might not be a bad idea to have something like a messenger to stop the "noise" traffic we have here :D :lol: How hard would that be? There's a messenger system around but I need to find it again. Don't know how hard that'll be yet ... :) |
Re: Sow's video
Originally posted by markp27 Hey, Sow, thought the video was great - looked like Ray Wood turned up :eek: :lol: What was the problem with the Music!?!?!?! Hmm maybe a bit of Pink Floyd or Fleetwood Mac would have been more appropriate, but it was ok - oh man, I think I'm old :cry: Fleetwood Mac eh? Need to look for it for the longer version then :) |

U sure? :p Well, I know some folks here who like to spank beautiful people :lol: |
Originally posted by Herbie Cleaned my 710 this afternoon which went very well. The car is so easy to work on, the only thing is it's so small compared to my 950r:lol: Took the motor apart and it looks like the easy handling with the stock setup messed up the new engine by enjoying it to much. :smile: I have a nova based mugen mr12 can a p/s from a sx 12 be used in the crankcase? the only thing I noticed yesterday that when on power out of the corner I got a bit of understeer, guess I will use red springs on the rear next clubrace, could be to much power though:lol: |
