15 on 14 cells is probably to high. i would only increase by 1 tooth at a time. as for the fans, get a Y harness like the one that comes on the revos from the factory. connect the to it and plug it into a free channel on your reciever.

You want to use the large one for the esc. But i don't know what fan is capable of moving more air.

ya, im scared to jump it or anything, Wait untill i get my stuff to make it 4 wheel drive! then it wotn be able to stay ont eh ground!

ttrmike · 11.27.2005, 04:22 PM

Kinda like mine just 1 less cell. It probably is smart not to jump it run it in the rain because the cadboard might rip. And your right it won't stay on the ground, it'l be like superman!

If you want an easy solution for the battery mounts, just buy some pre bent 90 degree aluminum.

nbcaznmaster · 11.27.2005, 04:46 PM

cant find any! i went to home depot and lowes, nada! the only bent aluminum they gto was flimsy peices.

nbcaznmaster · 11.27.2005, 06:40 PM

Ran my revo agian, got less then 5 minute runs! lol, its really annoying how shotr it is. I think i';ll need a diff motor. SOmething with longer runs. Maybe one of them XL series.

Lowe's should have angled aluminum. There is a small rack with vertically-arranged steel/aluminum bars and angled pieces from 2' up to 8' long. To provide maximum strength, I'd recommend 1/8" thick stock. I got an 8' long (only length with the other dimensions I wanted) X 1/8" thick X 1.5/1.5" wide angled bar. I just cut one edge to 1" and left the other at 1.5". Works well and covers the majority of the battery. If you want, I'll cut you a couple of pieces to the rough length you want and send them to you - you'll have to work on it to get the exact length/width you need. I know I'll never use all of the left over 6.5 feet I have!

lol, chippie iss ending me the batt trys, so all i need is like some small strips, one for teh rollbar, and one for the esc mount, ima see if teh school can do it.
