DO i need any special mrk III, spec 2.5x bearing only found in guatemala or will any 5x11x5 work?

Good plan.
EDIT: Not sure about the bearing type. Others know more than I do, but I know that KD has a Feigao high speed bearing set, good for 80k rpm for $20.

My new R123f 75mhz receiver just came in :D

Just ordered:

4 Badlands MT Tires
4 Chrome Tmaxx wheels
14t mod1 pinion
18t mod1 pinion
CC BEC
60 Soldering Iron
Assorted Heatshrink
Warhead Race steering kit
Thin CA glue


Will standard duct tape work well to strap tires?

Isnt 44mph a bit agressive for a mamba max and 8xl on a heavy warhead? I was thinking closer to 35mph may be something thats more dooable. Nice build though. I like the warhead too.

i was thinking that but its completely gutted and an e-savage trasmission is mounted in the frame rails, should be relatively light

Truck came in today, was relatively sound... seller forgot to mention that he ran it throught the desert then drove it right into the box..
Dogbone pins were almost non existant
Spur gear was chipped
shocks are leaking
...ugh spur was also a 49t, so geared for 40 now :D

BL_maxx 07.29.2008 01:08 PM

oooh that sucks but a little bit of part huntin and that warhead will be good as new.

brushlessboy16 07.29.2008 01:37 PM

yah
i can live with the shocks
the dirt is gone now after an hour with a tooth brush

and the spur will work i think..

the fact that it balances up like that should be a sign to you of what's to come :D
