Savox digital metal gear is a great option. About half the price of a similar HiTec. I went with the Spektrum non-metal gear S200 that came with my DX3E kit, and it works great. But I'm really...

I switched to the inline steering blocks and turning radius is fixed. Great improvement not only in turning radius but in overall handling sensitivity. Tightening the servo saver is a good idea,...

I ended up going for the Jconcepts Barcodes. They work really well and really anchor the truck to the track. My next purchase after these are worn out is to try the Rebars, as a lot of people at...

Yeah, the only reason I went with the Jconcepts is that they were the only pre-mounted that was suitable for my track, and in stock at Amainhobbies. The AKA pre-mounts were a little harder compound.

Body = proline (and future shocks)

Have I crossed some unspoken boundary in the world of SCT decoration?

Proline Chevy body kit with JConcepts Barcodes (Super Soft). Straight black for my first expedition into painting a body. The front rubs a lot up by the corners and had to be trimmed quite a bit. ...

I may just give that a try. But it seems like other people are running 10-15% drag brake with no problems. I guess nobody else on the track is using Blitz's though, just Losi's and SC10's. I'll...

I think stock weight is 25. But I'm running 40 weight in the front and 25 weight in the rear. It felt a little bouncy on the front with the 25 weight in there, but the 40 slows it down nicely. I...

Tighten all the way in. Back out 2 full turns. Start with a gearing that is close to stock and go up a couple teeth from there. You don't want your motor more than 160F or it won't last long.

I'm running the stock spur (88T), with a 24T pinion and it is a nice balance of torque and speed. Plenty of torque to drift and throw out the rear end, but will also go over 30mph.

Just an update: the glitch buster cap did not work. I think the SR300 receiver and S200 servo draw too much power from my ESC. It only has a 1.5A BEC, so I'm going to be getting a Castle BEC that...

I've been having the same issue with the SR300, and even the Spektrum glitch buster cap did not solve the problem. Does anyone know what the SR300 draws in terms of power and amps?
