Last week, I made another run and dang in 5 mins I stripped all 4 hexes on my Velocity 6 40 series wheels, unglued all 4 tires, and put a bunch of bumps all over my suspension arms due to spinning out on a small pebble road. I also damaged my batteries and I have to take apart and resolder and re-shrink wrap some cells.

Even with the 65T spur and 24T pinion, its still a monster and very violent especially on the launches if you don't watch the throttle. The pinion never stays on so I will be happy whenever I get my Module 1 thick pinions made.

Oh yeah, I also detached my rear wing, but one good note is that the new G3 Upper Beefier A-Arms held up in a few crashes. I will still have to see how it does on my next run after I fix a bunch of small things.

I really gotta get a ramp and jump this and see it fly. I am assuming I can probably do 30-35 mph+ on first gear and in the mid and high 40s in 2nd gear. That is just a guess but it is really quick in either gear. I need a radar gun or GPS to get some real actual MPH but I must say its fast regardless.


Embrace the Speed!
