looks awesome! not you are going to endure the longest wait that you will ever experience in your life.... how long to mmm combo is released?
|
Aug. 25:cry:, I won't get it until I'm 15:cry:
|
and B-P-P charged us for it already, i was thinking they'd charge us when they shipped it...
|
hmm, hey your still getting it though :D
|
true, I'm lucky for that:smile:
|
yeah, how far are you from new jersey?
|
56 miles, 1 hour 8 minutes
According to Google Maps Here it is according to mapquest: http://www.mapquest.com/maps?city=We...:::::f:EN:M:/e |
thats not THat far, you actually took the time to look that up :D
|
Took all of about 30 seconds.
|
|
very nice!
|
thanks, I'm guessing that this will be running before my Speed-T, so I put the Z9100T back in the muggy. Horizon just sent me 2 new Xcelorin combos by accident, and neither of them work, now someone from losi is supposed to call me, the person who said that he would call me said that he was the best Xcelorin representative in the world, he said he would call either thursday or friday but he hasn't called yet.
|
well, the Xcelorin guy still hasn't called yet, and the mamba monster is still on back order, and i still have 2 cars that aren't working, and 1 li-po that's getting old:no::neutral:
|
Looks very nice. IMO, you should pick up some new tires, 40 series mashers would look killer!
|
how about these?:
http://www.killerhobbies.com/items/r...006-detail.htm http://www.killerhobbies.com/items/r...005-detail.htm they're not 40 series, but pro-line has 1/8 truck series masher tires a great price on these too! http://www.amainhobbies.com/product_...ducts_id/21338 and i want these for on-road: http://www.amainhobbies.com/product_...oducts_id/2973 and either of these: http://www.amainhobbies.com/product_...oducts_id/2975 http://www.amainhobbies.com/product_...oducts_id/2976 |
these are the wheels and tires that I already have:

YEAH BADLANDS i lovemine :D
|
I vote badlands, just repaint the rims. I think black would look more sinister.
|
I died them red, when i was going to get a body and paint it black, but then i didn't have enough money because i didn't have a job then, so I'm gonna keep them red and i don't know how soon i will do this but sometime soon I will buy a clear muggy body and paint it black and maybe add some purple, blue or green or red flames or words or whatever:mdr:, that will make the red rims blend in better
yes badlands are the best!!! but i haven't tried mashers... |
check out what I'm getting!
http://www.maxamps.com/Lipo-6000-185-Pack.htm I was originally going to get the ProTek 4000mah 20C/30C Li-Po for $140, but since my truck's not going to be done until after my birthday, I'm going to have a little extra cash and I'm going with this one. It's 6000mAh, 5S2P, 18.5V, 20C maximum continuous discharge and 50C maximum burst discharge! that's 300 amps maximum burst discharge!!! of course I'm not going to get it until I have a working BL combo |
Quote:
I have had at least 12 maxamps packs, and had to return all of them. I have not had a failure yet with an enerland cell based pack, currently have the following: Neu 3900 3s, 5000 3s Flightpower 3700 4s (2) 2170 3s (2) Poly rc 3700 5s bought used, still works as new trakpower 4900 2s (4) I have some more, just can't remember... |
do you know of any specific models that will fit in a 48/144mm battery tray that have at least 120 amps of continuous discharge?

dude that's perfect, thanks!
if they have that in higher mAh let me know, I just don't wanna go over $350 |
Trying to find a higher mah pack that is not longer is difficult. You can go up to 6000mah with fp lipos, but you will need a bigger battery tray. Mike sells a tray that will fit...
Look around, you may find a better price than tower hobbies has. You can go with any of the other brands I listed, they all use the same cells... |
the only one that i found that was better was a flight power 6s pack, but i don't have a 6s charger, I just ordered the battery tray from rc-monster like 30 minutes ago, but I'm not going to cancel it unless I find one with higher mah and 5 cells that's too big for the one I ordered.
|
Now I see: http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...LiPo&search=Go
The one you chose is definitely the best, thanks so much |
wait, i found one on a-main from thunder power, a little less at $264 and it's 160mm, 25C rated and 5000mah, I'm thinking that I'm gonna cancel that tray.
|
nah, I don't think I'll cancel it, thunder power is the only one that doesn't fit, Neu Energy has a 5000mah 25c/50c 5S pack that fits and it's only $250 plus it comes with a deans connector, but it also comes with a astro blinky balance connector and I need either thunder power or align compatible, maybe I'll be able to find a astro blinky female attached to a align male balance connector. I have the Losi charger, and it's max charge rate is the same as the battery which I am happy about, now i just need a li-po sack
|
how much runtime do you guys reckon is possible with hard running in a muggy with 5000mah? i've heard people run up to 45 minutes but that was with 8000mah...

Depends on the motor, gearing and terrain. If you use the old 4s 8000mah vs 6s 5000mah comparision (with suitable kv motors), the runtime should be roughly the same. Not an exact science though...
|
what about 2200kV motor, and 5S (just because that's my chargers limit) 5000mAh?
|
now, this probably sounds a little crazy, and I Probobly sound like the little boy in the candy shop that can't make up his mind, but I've found another setup, and I sent an e-mail to rc-monster mike asking him to cancel the battery tray i ordered last night, but i couldn't find a phone number, i would've rather called.
With this new setup, I have the steering servo in sideways, and the break servo in sideways next to the steering servo, and i haven't changed anything else. Now I have the whole left side of the muggy free for the battery, and i can mount it close to the front, and I originally could only fit a 158mm battery in it and now i can fit a 245mm battery in it (but, I'm not going to). I'm getting a 6000mah 5S1P 25C/50C 18.5V Enerland pack when the MMM comes, and i had to change the brake servo mount because this battery is 168mm long right now my camera's battery is dead and charging and I'll post pictures soon. |
|
are you just using one brake? i thought the muggy had 2 disc brakes - one for the front and one for the back?
|
yea, it has 2 but the way the servo is mounted, i can't figure out how to hook it up to the rear brake.
|
I got a new dremel, I was tired of charging the 4.8v one, plus this one has 35,000 rpm.
I also got the battery tray and installed it with a countersink bit. http://i215.photobucket.com/albums/c...r/DSCN5162.jpg http://i215.photobucket.com/albums/c...r/DSCN5164.jpg http://i215.photobucket.com/albums/c...r/DSCN5165.jpg http://i215.photobucket.com/albums/c...r/DSCN5168.jpg http://i215.photobucket.com/albums/c...r/DSCN5170.jpg http://i215.photobucket.com/albums/c...r/DSCN5171.jpg http://i215.photobucket.com/albums/c...r/DSCN5173.jpg http://i215.photobucket.com/albums/c...r/DSCN5176.jpg |
looking good, only a 4000mah 3s? (i couldnt be bothered reading 6 pages sorry!) i should really get a dremel - but ive got 4 workshops at school i can use :)
|
no, a 5000mah 5s enerland pack, the protek is from my Speed-T, I'm going to use it with the muggy just to make sure it works before I buy the Enerland pack, I'm going to get this one:
