Hey guys! Here she is; the newest toy! It is insanely fast and i was thinking of going 3s lipo... too much. Only mods so far are rpm skid/gear cover. Enjoy!

Very cool, it's the exact same setup as my T4, lol, Mamba and Spektrum.

Sylvester · 11.25.2006, 08:53 PM

lol. Pretty good setup, if i do say so myself.

Here's an advice for both of ya, to keep the front end intact when you make a direct impact to a tree or a deck:

Use the RPM wide front bumper with either the B4 or T4.

I once drove my B4 with 10 3300nimh cells and a 1920/8 motor and directly crashed at the wall at full speed.
Guess what, nothing happenned to my buggy, but only the RPM bumper sufferred from a few scratches.

Its a must for a brushless user.

I was thinking of the bumper, but i wont need it as im only gonna be racing.

Mikey · 11.26.2006, 04:07 PM

yea i keep the rpm bumper on my x-6 (mid motor b4) when im practicing and bashing then i take it off for the racing.

Yup, the RPM wide front bumper is very nice. I landed my T4 into the side of a concrete block off a jump, nothing broke. Nice B4, same setup I had, until I switched to a T4. Only thing is I've got MX-3/XXTra for my TX/RX.

Yeah. You need to try a 3S! :) Be prepared for instant backflips.

The 3S is way too much but alot of fun. I was running the same setup with the 5700 KV motor. At 50mph I could still flip it on it's lid. Stock up on shock towers. I was going to try a T4 so they would be protected under the body.

Sorry for changing the course of the topic, but I've been thinking, is it legal for the general public to import speed guns or GPS to measure the speed of their rc cars?

These things are used only by the police, right?

Wont I have troubles with customs if I order one?

Where to find them any way?

In the US it isn't....Anybody can have one/get one...As a matter of fact, I almost bought a Bushnell radar gun a few weeks ago...

How much did that Bushnell cost you, Squee?

I think my cousin has a Bushnell telescope. I didn't know that they make speed radars, too.
