Motor Mount is finished and slightly Tested! Got all the Bracing finished; holes drilled and tapped. I went and tested for 1 pack so far, This thing is SWEET! I was keeping up around the "Track" with my dads Buggy which was on 6s too... For a bit. Then I noticed bad wheel wobble; I blew the two rear passenger side bearings. Went home and fixed the bearings and then it started raining. LAME. I need to retune my shocks. I was "Donkey kicking" on the bumps pretty bad though... Thicker Oil in the Rear????
On another note: I will be ditching the 1520 in the Maxx for a 1717 ! Woohoo! then regearing to 14/50 for about 56mph. This should actually drop the motor by another ~.5mm with the larger diameter of the 1717.
Then the 1520 is going to be stuffed into the 8ight buggy. My dad got me another MMM for Christmas; so I will run the 8ight with the 1520 on 6s with 18/43 gearing for about 60mph. Hopefully I can get some videos for you guys.
Anyway looking at this now. The motor has dropped at least an inch to an inch and a half. Woohoo! Seriously Low CG now.
Also, I got and F-650 Body and it fits just right with the Mono-block. Barely hits the front and rear bumpers. and tires almost hit the wheel wells at full tilt. Perfect fit. Any bigger and it wouldnt fit...
