My Second 10L was broken by this project, that was the main reason for it not running.

A big problem is I REALLy need to find some foam tires for this project. The person I had working on it really let me down.

I have a sceduled run on November 5th.

I need to order another 10L from Mike but I don't have the money, I had to buy a new radio.

How do you even run a car like that? It goes so fast that you either need the Spektrum's 1300 foot range and take it as far as you can see it, or chase it with a real car and try to outrun it without getting smashed in the process. I would love to try and do the chase car method the next time I have to do speed runs, but I don't have a long enough street to do that on, and am more afraid of running over the little car in the process.

You mean like my JR R1 Pro with Spektrum?

I like to know how you broke a 10l twice.

The first one 1/8 Shaft. The Shaft bent during startup.

The Second one the windings got damaged, it was used, so maybe it was already weak?

Aha! See that nbcaz? Looks like you should NOT buy a BL system used after all!!!

I was wondering why the 6s was in there in the first place, I too would have gone with either a 9 or 10 L. But dang, that car isn't going to weigh anything, and that nutso gearing........make sure you get your aerodynamics right!

I'm not sure where you got 6S From. I am running a 6S Lithium Polymer, but since the beginning I have been running 10L Motors.

If the car runs well, there will be movies same day.

This is what confused me, didn't kick in that you can't get a 6s with a 5mm shaft, and I was reading too fast.
