I'm just waiting on my little green can to get here :)

Ok... so I got the electrics installed now... this was not a simple task considering the size of these little cars... it's a good thing the LRP Sphere TC Spec has got such a small footprint...
it was small enough to allow a little space for the receiver to mounted next to it... The motor, power and sensor wires had to be strapped to the upper deck since the battery will be mounted
horizontally between the esc and motor...

I plugged everything up and programmed the esc's neutral, forward and brake positions (this esc does not have reverse)... It works... the fan is a little loud though for its size (it spins up really fast)...
all programming is done on the esc with the mode and set buttons... all mode features are confirmed with LEDs.

I'm still waiting on new spurs and pinions... so I didn't get to run a full test with the electrics and mechanics... see the pics below for the current layout..




LRP Sphere tc spec and the Mamba Monster to give an sense of scale.



Switch mounted inverted to allow for access under the body... all programming is done on the esc with the mode and set buttons











Not a whole lot of space for mounting electrics on this chassis... the deans will be replaced with 4mm bullets for the protek 2S packs






To be continued....

Got the new wheel and tyres glued up... they'll need be balanced before I run them... so I used the stock ball hubs and shafts that came with the car to make an improvised
tyre balancer... as soon as I get my new gears, i'll know how effective it is... see the pics below...

Update... I finally got my batteries (Protek hard case 50c 5000mah 2s) and new gears (99t, 93t, 22t, 23t and 24t)... got them all mounted up and did some small tests with mechanics and the electrics... everything seems to be running well together so far... I hope i can get it on the track this weekend to see how well it runs...


See the photos below:



Xray 99t spur and RR aluminum 24t pinion... FDR 8.76




aluminum adjustable clamping servo arm




4mm bullets for the hard case lipo pack








velcro was added to the lipo casing and battery hold downs to reduce the chance of the lipo sliding around... the hold downs were
also raised via 2 x 2mm (4 in all) shims to allow the packs fit comfortably




having a little fun with the throttle... the motor gets to top rpm very quickly and it does so smoothly... low speeds are nice, no cogging
