Got the buggy out for the first real runs today. Temps seem to be running a little on the high side with the shell on. I got it out for the first real test today - motor temps were stable at 140* and the ESC at 170*. The MaxAmps 5000mAh 3S lipos only got to 100*.
I think a little ventilation will help the ESC temps and I am going to put some heatsink compound on the motor heatsinks which should help a little bit there. I upped the Punch control on the MM from 20% to 50% as the front end is picking up a lot during acceleration.
Thinking of trying a 16T pinion to help out the temps too.
Pinions wear on the 17T has been really good.
This is a fun car!!!
Main problem I am still having even with 7K diff oil in the center diff is that front end is picking up and unloading a lot causing the front tires to ballon rediculously when I go for hard acceleration - if anyone has any recommendations to help in that regards please let me know.
Just painted a Pro-Line Crowd Pleaser body for the car tonight (will post pics next week when it dries and I get it cut to fit). I was a little disappointed in how thin the Lexan on the Ofna body is 0 the Pro-Line body is a much thicker Lexan.
