I spoke to mike about this a while back - It is WIP as he wants one for himself :)

However priority is for the sliperential - This would be coming out as a kit after...

Hardstyle 10.21.2008 01:32 PM
Ok, so it isn't so simple thing to do. I think I just fix the gearbox. Center diff mount is nice system though, maybe in future, hehe..

Hardstyle 10.27.2008 07:30 AM
Mike told me that he could get the 80mm medusa's in month or so. He will add them in his store then..

So I have think what else would I need.. Here's some preliminary list

About those alloy steering blocks. Are them good, or should I stick with the stock palstic ones? Just busted front blocks and the bearings won't stay in place. Something weird happened, maybe a bad shimming..

I got the tranny fixed, was pretty easy.

That white thing is heatshrink (haven't got pic after the heat up) just to secure the pin. Also put some glue in it

I'd 'steer' clear of those Integy steering blocks (sorry, thats just not funny), i doubt they would hold up very well. If your willing to pay a little more, i've heard good things about the RD Racing axle carriers

Arct1k 10.27.2008 12:32 PM
Not sure what version I have but I do have the silver integy carriers and they do seem to be holding up ok...

Hardstyle 10.27.2008 02:43 PM
Hey Arct1k, have you tried the bike inner tube for your batterys yet?

Does the integys carriers use the same bearings?

Arct1k 10.27.2008 06:01 PM
No different bearings which are a minor pain - the V3's IIRC are OK.

No the the bike tire - got one from a friend but it was for a racing bike! lol

feistyacorn 10.28.2008 09:36 AM
I don’t think that I will purchase anything Integy anymore. I have had some of their stuff and I think the stock parts are sometimes better. Traxxas came out with some new hub carriers for the Revo. They have larger bearings and are reinforced better than the original ones. Here is a link, #4 and 5 on the list. You can get a set on ebay cheep. I am not sure if RCM has them. I was hoping that Someday FLM would make a set. :yes: I don’t understand why they don’t.

Hardstyle 10.28.2008 04:11 PM
Thank you for your input, I know integys stuff isn't the best quality. But we'll see, 56$ isn't so big loss, heh. I might try the integys wheelie bar too..

So finally decided to get MMM V3 and I have been thinking about the motor, that should I after all get the Neu motor, instead of Medusa? Is it really worth to spend the extra +100$ to it? Hmmm...Maybe I could wait the combo too :neutral: but 2200kv motor with 6s2p A123.. Doesn't that ask for troubles? Any thoughts?

suicideneil 10.29.2008 08:20 AM
I run a 1900kv motor with 6s2p of A123 cells- mucho powerful setup. Bearing in mind Castle say that you can use 6s lipo with the 2200kv motor, 6s of A123 is equal to 5s lipo, so its just about perfect (if you gear down a touch) :yes:

Instead of the drill bit, I enlarged the hole and tapped mine to 3mm and used a yoke setscrew. It's stronger than that bit you used and guaranteed to stay in place too using blue loctite :mdr:.

I forgot to take a picture of it but here's the same concept on my tmaxx/revo tranny.

2200 x 19.8 is over 40k. That is quite alot. But have to think about it, im not in hurry, they are releasing the combo sometime next month right? Running 2200kv feigao/bk etc. with 6s2p a123, not a chance :whistle:

Thanks, have to keep that in mind, if mine doesn't hold up

George16 10.29.2008 10:11 AM
I'm currently running a Neu 1515 1Y on 6S lipos :mdr::whistle:.

Hardstyle 10.30.2008 07:18 AM
Hehe, nice! So its 2200kv motor, how does it run? Any temp issues?


I really can't make my mind about the motor now. What should I do, wait for the MMM combo, wich I think will be available soon or get Medusa 80mm OR some nice Neu motor..

George16 10.30.2008 07:36 AM
If I were you, I'll just buy whatever is available now (Neu) but if you have the patience to wait, then do so and just get the combo.

Check my thread here:

Arct1k 10.30.2008 08:50 AM
The castle motors are very nice and work very well - I don't think you will be dissapointed.

If I can get my 1515 2.5DFI intend to install one of mine on it...

Hardstyle 10.30.2008 09:15 AM
Thanks guys, so it's the combo then. At first just worried about the kv ratings, but I believe you guys, that it is a fine system..

Just quick Q. Can I get more speed with that mmm combo, without turning the electrics into Sauna? Now Briang's calculator shows 38mph with setup what im running..

Arct1k 11.02.2008 04:02 PM
i think you might need to gear down a bit and invest in hybrid diffs... You didn't add any tire ballooning so you would be going faster still - Not sure about a 18.6T pinion though...

Elecs would be fine for some speed runs I'm sure.

Hardstyle 11.02.2008 04:20 PM
Wow that was quick! Hmmm.. have to think about the diffs, just that those what im running are almost brand new. I should have bought the hybrids in the first place though.. But thanks, have to re-calculate with the ballooning thing..

Hardstyle 01.15.2009 05:01 AM
Thank you Mike!
 
Sorry haven't keep you guys updated. But seriously there haven't happened anything spectacular....until now :mdr:

Finally got my hands to the mmm combo + other things, had to pay 60€ for the damn customs :grrrrrr:

Got something done yesterday and today. Still have to do some soldering and adding all the electrics in place.. Have to say it all turned quite nice now.

Haha, sure :tongue:

Yea, had to move the esc's place because of the swaybars. Applied Arct1c's advice, much better place now anyways. Thanks to him :yes:

Final pictures, she is ready now.

Yep, I likes that alot, think Im gonna have to follow that approach with the esc mounting (any excuse to make yet another custom motor mount, getting good at this now). I might even fab something up for my parallel connectors for the lipos and hard-mount them to the rear upper plate, save having wires flopping around back there and coming loose.

Very inspiring work dude, keep it up. :yes:

Thanks man, im glad you like! Esc mount is very easy to do. Easiest way is to use some L-Steel bracket, imo. Can be found at local hardware stores, im sure.

Basic thing is to keep the wires as short as possible, that helps to keep 'em organized. That reminds me to shorten mine parallel connector..

Omg the dang thing burst into flames and got hit by a tractor :lol:
Juuust kidding!


Powering first time the system had some difficulties. Fan keeped blowing, Leds were all on and no response throttle nor steering. Figured that I didn't Bind my receiver with the radio after making a new profile for it. So it didn't get signal.

Did a little test run outside. It runs very well, can't really say about the performance yet, traction isn't best at ice/snow. Front wheel flyed off though..
Throttle is smooth as a butter, a light year ahead from my bk controller. Temps were quite normal for this weather motor 30C° controller 35-40C° outside 0C°. Batterys were... cold :mdr:


And another thing. I was suprised that 14t mod 1 pinion was too small. It barely touched the spurs teeths.. So had to settle for 16t.

I tweaked Esc's settings a little. Should I change something?And about the brake amount, is it all the same if I tune it from the radio or from the esc's setting?

feistyacorn 01.23.2009 10:32 AM
I have things adjusted a little different, but not by much. I have the punch control at full power, alot less brake, smaller throttle deadband, auto lipo, and a faster arming time. Just pp on how you want to run your truck. If I were you I wouldnt mess with the punch control, you can use your transmitter to tame your truck if it is too wild. I usually slow my trucks down when I go to the track and speed them back up for bashing. I get too power happy at the track. :lol:

Hardstyle 01.23.2009 12:31 PM
Thanks for advices, have to explore the settings more. It runs fine though. I guess I have to wait till snow melts a way.. Then I can start the proper tests.
I would like to hear other ppl's opinion too.

feistyacorn 01.23.2009 12:36 PM
I just thought of why I lowered my brake settings. Sometimes under hard braking, if you go from brake to gas quick the motor will cog. Not sure if it will do it for you, but it is something you should be aware of.

Time for an update

I've seen worse vids... :lol:

I like the snow-drifting action, wish I had a functioning motor when we had snow over xmas and newyear.

How do you like the Integy wheelie bar? I just about the exact same one and am wondering how its gonna work. I always hating the ones with 2 wheels because when its riding on it, it always seemed to walk one way or the other, and it seems like the Savage ones with 1 wheel always worked better. Besides, I don't wanna destroy my wing...

Squee, you should bring back the bouncing/dancing kid for a while. I miss the chuckle I get whenever I see it.
