No i only have the one mount. The only reason that i have it is because it came with the al chassis. Most of the truck is second hand

You should've went with the 1521/1.5Y for the 8S set up. The 1521/1Y I have in my BPP truggy on 6S is insane and I mainly use 5S2P with it now. I use the 1515/2Y in my Mugen MBX5T with 8S and it's faster then any nitro truggy out there and it's only eared for 34-36mph.

I am still playing with the setup, i would prefer to run 8s but if i get a good response and low temps on 6s i will be quite happy with that.

I only run 6S in my truggy to show off a bit. I use 5S2P for long run times and just to enjoy all the power the set up still provides.

I still need to get a mechanical brake setup sorted and working before i do any hard testing and driving. I will be at work this week and not be able to look at it until next saturday

Why mechanical brakes?

Well as you know Lutach i have not had a lot of luck with speed controllers at the moment and if running a mechanical brake helps to save the Schulze speedy why not. I think its more for piece of mind than anything

Your Schulze is based on the 40.160 and I have used mine with with motor brakes ever since I got it. Now the other Schulze like the 18.97 is a different story.

Hey mate,

Been away for awhile, awesome build you got going there!!! Love the turnbuckle motor mount braces on those earlier mounts, look so sweet.

You say youre at work the whole of next week? I'm back for the whole of next week :lol: Looks like we'll just miss our bash... Look forward to seeing the progress!!

I was at my LHS today and i told him about your 40.160. I also told him that i should just try it as is and not worry about the brakes, if it smokes warranty. he agreed:neutral:

Man that sucks, i am only gone for one week at a time though. The great part about my roster is that if i take all of my holidays i only work 4.5 months out of the year:party::party::party:

I cant wait to try the new speedy

4.5 months haha, not too bad at all :intello: anyway, hopefully have a bash in the summer when its long break!

I'm going to be trying the MGM 28025 again next week just for kicks, it was sitting there doing nothing. Hopefully runs cooler for longer because the MMM would get hot after 5 mins. Hopefully mine doesnt reach the same fate as yours :eyes:

have a good one :great:

I tried another MMM on the 1521 and after 4 15min runs, i charged the packs and plugged them in the MMM must have developed an allergy coz it turned to ash straight away. So i plugged in the MGM and it let out a little smoke for the second time. Nitro here i come:lol:

hey mate,

hows the build coming, got any recent pics or vids for us?
