my christmas present

[ncnguyen123]

well, i finally took the plunge and upgraded my gmaxx to brushless through help of this forum. boy, going brushless is just ridiculously fun. i never thought my truck could go this fast. now, i understand why everyone raves about brushless power.


set-up:
-gmaxx
-g1 single speed with rcm steel idler
-BK 9920/8xl
-UBEC
-16 cells
-maximizer diff upgrades
-strobe 51/18
-countless other upgrades too long to mentioned

Congradulations, brushless is true power. Now start saving for a couple high quality lipo packs the power increase will be noticable

Wow. Strange.

[BrianG]

What's strange about it? And that from a person who deals in muppet pron?

[suicideneil]

We're all strange around this place. Is it just me, or is the tranny facing the wrong way on that truck? I assume the diffs are flipped too to compensate.

Or, he could have simply swapped any two of the motor wires. Much simpler and easier, unless you REALLY like useless tinkering.

Or have a Novak system, you have to flip the diffs if turning the tranny around, the wires have to be in the correct order for it to work.

I do not deal with muppet porn (not pron, Brain!), I deal with midget porn, much larger market.

[BrianG]

Yes, but I made sure he was using a sensorless system (in the pic).

And I spelled "porn" that way to foil any potential site filters (shhh, don't tell Serum I tried to do that). At any rate, if you DID deal with muppet porn, you'd probably make more since you'd probably be the only one doing it. Midget porn OTOH...

He may have flipped the tranny to provide more room and/or balance for mounting other components.

[ncnguyen123]

yup, i flipped tranny as i thought it was a cleaner look and to provide more room to mount my electronics in the front. i was able to reverse engine by just reprogramming the BK ESC.

next big purchase would be lipos. but man, are they expensive.

Not really. You can get a pair as cheap or cheaper than a good set of NiMHs.

[BrianG]

^ +1. Especially when you consider that the increased capacity of the lipos is more like two sets of decent NiMHs...
