Losi Ten-T Conversion

[mohanjude]

Received x2 Mike's Ten-T conversion Kit.

Excellent kit - well designed. Got my second Ten-T roller out and started building the truck.

I installed a Lehner 1950 - 5 Motor which at approx 3500KV should be plenty fast on 4S. I could not resist running it on 6S and it was a blast. The MMM did not appear to break into a sweat. The weather here in the UK is pleasant and sunny for a change so it was out first thing in the morning.

The pinion is 19 tooth so there is plenty of torque.

Once again thanks to RCM another Bruhsless 'Monster' is a realilty.

Thanks Mike for all your help.

No way

Nice ride, that thing must really fly!

Arrived at the office this morning and to my pleasant surprise Mike's kit was sitting on my desk. First in Canada

Seriously I have had so much fun with this truck it is like the first time I played with the brushless e-maxx all those years ago. The truck handles really well. Very nice truck to convert and hope the truck is going to be durable.

Installation almost complete, I would have had it finished last night but ran into a few snags. A few things worth of note:

- The battery strap included with the kit was too short for my application. Following further research on this forum I discovered longer straps are available. My fault. I just ended up buying the Losi straps at my LHS as I didn't want to wait for another order.

- I had a similar issue as IIICJACKIII with sizing of the screws. The original ones removed from the nitro parts were much smaller and a different thread size than the ones needed for Kit (both battery and diff mount) I ended up needing 5 M4 and 1 M3 screws to complete the installation. I figure no problem...so I head off to the LHS for some screws. Well I found out they don't sell screws individually and were only available in a kit at a price of $50.00!. Luckily I had a friend who had a few spares laying around.

Everything else was PERFECT! Thanks Mike and Brian for you assistance with this build. I can't wait to power it up.

I ended up picking up some Traxxas screws to finish it up. they are sold in a pack of 4 or 5. I used 1 pack of 4m button head and 1 pack of 3m countersunk. Plus they had threadlock on them all ready.:) I ran it last weekend on a bigger track with a 3s 5000mah pack, 2200 mamba monster system w/ a 19t pinion. It was a little slow on the straights, but very controable on every where else. could use a bigger pinion, i will try a 21 or 22 next. temps w/ the 19t hit around 80-90 deg. F. 4s is just wicked!! I got a set of black chrome rims and losi king pins. they are smaller then the stock tires but look great on it.
