Made some changes with my motor mount and suspension setup... I'm using 15/52 gearing now with an Ofna 6 Spider CD... I'll be ordering a pair of 16 tooth pinions from Mike
so that i can run in the forties....
A few pics of the layout...
UE Widetrac Control Arms, FLM Bulks, UE Super Shocks and UE Knucklehead shock towers
My new homemade CD/Motor mount with a OFNA Spider center diff and CC 1520 attached
Upper plate finished and mount mounted
Hmmm... I had a funky little moment when I made test of the rebuild... saw a puff of smoke coming from the truck while it was sitting on the ground... The body was off luckily, it allowed me to unplug the Batts
immediately... i saw that one of the servo extension wires had lost it's insulation on the negative wire... i was a little worried since that extension was connected directly to the receiver... on opening the
receiver box i saw that only the extension was affected... I removed the extension from the receiver and made a check... the receiver started up right away and all functions checked out. not sure why
the wire shorted out like that tough... Well... i have no backup servo extensions, so I'll be running the 125B without its double fan 'cooling'... On plus side, this will allow me to mount the ESC a little lower
...
I'll make some tests as soon as possible and post my findings... Not sure what kind of temps I'll be getting on the esc now.
