Next day E-Revo, is it geared right?
 

I love it when Tower ships from Arizona. I always get it next day and with the $35 coupon and $30 credit I had, I couldn't pass this up. Anyways I gutted my LST2 and put the MM/Neu 1Y/F in this badboy. All I have is a 18T pinion at the moment. Will this do? Or should I gear lower?

I tried using the speed calculator but I don't think I'm doing it right. My TrueRC 6400 lipos fit just right. I should be able to run it tomorrow a little. Also anyone know of a site that has MMM in stock?

Picked up two of these yesterday at Toy's R Us to try out also. Looks to be a nice launching platform.

Setup looks really good!

Were you able to get 18/68 to mesh properly without doing anything? Or do you have the fins ground down?

Trying to see how low I can gear down with my Neu Finned setup before it bottoms out.

Nice setup, I almost had the same setup but Im not using neu motor :whistle:

For the gearing, I think you might need up the pinion size a bit, calculator show about 2700kv+++ but I might be wrong also :intello:

By the way did you made the mount for the ESC or did you buy it somewhere else...I made a plastic mount but doesnt look sturdy...

Looks great, bet you can't wait to try it out. I doubt anywhere has the MMM in stock.

Thanks for the comments. The 18/68 meshes just fine. The fins don't get in the way at all. The only thing I don't like is the Neu hits the body. If I land on the lid I'm hitting the motor full on.:neutral: The best I could for now was to raise the body.

I didnt know that Tower has a warehouse in Arzona...do you know what city, and what products they have there

The ESC mount is from RCSolutions. They were discontinuing them so I bought the last batch that they had. Here's some pics for ya:

Sorry my mistake. The adddress on the box says:

Tower Hobbies
11190 Trademark Dr., Ste 101
Reno, NV 89521


Still NV, that's pretty good for next day.

Thanks for that...I've been looking for those too bad they are being discontinued

Interesting - first time I've seen someone use the front motor mount in the e-revo. It is a bit of a rear-weight biased truck so that may even things out a bit - although it raises the CG up about and inch or two from the rear motor mount.

Let us know how it runs - I may have to try that config out.

I'm dying to try it out but I'm stuck house sitting today. I did clean my LST2 because it lists tonight on Ebay. I hope it sells, I gotta pay for my next project.
