Not sure on the brake disc but it's likely a dynamite product as well.

You have to adjust your car's brakes so they are engaged when you let up on the throttle. It is easier to do this mechanically by adjusting your linkage.

You can adjust your throttle EPA so the servo applies pressure on the brake when in neutral. Just play with the settings until you feel it works for you.

You don't have a drag brake setting on the radio, in electrics it is a function of the ESC, in nitros it's adjusting the linkage or servo movement.

How are you guys going about putting back lighting in these radios.

Thanks

Look at the video for the backlight installation. Nobody has a clue where to find the disc brake for the steering wheel. It's not a dyamite product.

And it's ordered. Now I've got two different wheels for my radio. Now when the LiFe batteries comes out in two months I'll get that.

Default servo speed

hi, I'm interested in moving up from the DX3R to the 3R Pro for the servo speed for steering(oval) I've heard this is really just a frame rate adjustment of a few settings vs a true percent 0-100% to adjust in speed like a Futaba or KO...could someone confirm that or not? thanks

All I can say is I had a Airtronics M8 for many years until last month. the Pro has many features I've never had. I also switch all my cars to digital servos from analog. With the setting on the Pro (1 analog and 2 digital) and the new servos it is much better and smoother and quicker than before. As for Oval I'm a road racer that races oval lately once a month.I know how the oval truck drove with the M8 compaired to the new servo and radio.The way I can explain it my oval car is as good as my on-road car. It drives smoother and as easy as my on-road car. I can move over and go anywhere I want on the track under total control. This is a awesome radio. I a few weeks I'll be going to a big race and I can compair the two radio as my teammate has that radio.

Well I tried to fit my new dynamite wheel to my dx3rpro. I guess this is different than the dx3s because it does not fit.

I just bought a DESC from a buddy of mine. He had put in a Havok Pro SC but never run it, just set it up. I put my spektrum DSM2 radio gear in a tried it in front of the house and all seemed to be fine. Today when i got to the track and turned everything on it acted like it was glitching and would not work. Eventually the power light on the receiver would not come on so i thought it was a bad receiver. Pulled the receiver out of my losi and tested and it seemed to be ok which lead me to think it was the receiver as well. I put that receiver back in my losi (with a Tekin) and ran a pack with no issues so i decided to put that receiver back in the DESC so i could at least try a pack with the truck. Same thing happened with this receiver so now i have 2 dead receivers and it appears the esc is the culprit. What could cause this? I have checked all my connections and everything is fine. To say i am upset would be the understatement of the century

Default lifepo4 14500 3.0v??

Hi again,

Man, I searched everywhere for this battery, but only found 600mah and lower...where in the world did you find these babies?

Thanks again,
Keoni

i have about 23hr on the same chage and it still going strong

now if i can only get the cover that spektrum use to cover the 6 cell battery tray to make it a 4 cell so i can cover the other 2 spots that are not used it would look stock lol
