Which way do I go?

[marcus]

Long story short - I have a new Flux, a new FLM chassis with new XL suspension pods with diffs on it & a Titanium filled 2-speed gearbox, and a Kershaw Direct Drive unit.

- Do I install the FLM chassis on the Flux with the Flux gearbox

- Do I install the FLM chassis on the Flux with the Kershaw DD

- DO I leave the Flux alone and start a build on the FLM

- Or is there another permutation?

Sounds and looks to me like you pretty much have two trucks, just one needs electronics. How's the flux holding up? Sell the FLM and Kershaw stuff and buy more Lipos!

[marcus]

Well, I need a lot of hardware to get the FLM up and running as a seperate truck. It's not out the question, but more wondering if it's worth it.
Would it be a crime to break a flux up already?

I say put the direct drive in the flux and put the single speed in the FLM and build it up.

i say...put the jet turbine in the FLUX!
how much did the turbine kit set you back!...that thing looks sick,but, must put off a shiot load of HEAT!

I want to see you do the first one - just so I know how the FLM stuff will work for me down the road.

BTW, did you add an external BEC to the Flux? If not, what is that on top of the battery tray?

He added a eagletree analyser. I also like your velcro straps - I did exactly the same after I kept losing the lipos. I think the battery doors / covers are a weak design on the flux.

I have the same thoughts - got a direct drive off dan and dont know what to do with it after I experienced the flux. The flux is jaw dropping wheelie machine - I love blinged up brushless trucks but after playing with the flux I cant see anything else coming close to it.

Sell the DD, and build another truck out of the flm... Leave the flux alone...

Yea, that would definitely be interesting on the tabletop jump
The whole turbine project cost quite a bit because actually the motor in there now is the second as the first one was too troublesome. Cumulative cost ? I'm afraid to count

i would "install the FLM chassis on the Flux with the Flux gearbox" and sell the KD DD.(since it is junk anyway)

[marcus]

I'm leaving the Flux stock, until I break it.
The FLM is under construction using a 2-speed box.
The DD sits here looking left out

...DD or CD the Flux...
