Quark fried, blown capacitor...

plumslow, thanks for the info. The more the better.

As for your getting into a brushless truggy, I really can't speak highly enough of the performance of the Mamba Max on 4S lipo with a two pole motor. The Feigaos run really well, but suffer from excessive heat; but what do you want from a system that goes for less than $200. If you have the money, the MM and a Lehner 1940 8 or 9 hi amp would be a killer setup. If you want to go with a four pole motor, the Neu/Quark combo seems to be the hot item among most here.

Due to personal experiences, I'd recommend the MM/Lehner combo.

AAngel, haven't we gone over the whole cap thing before? :005:

What a couple ppl said about too large a cap, I can't see it, maybe they just meant for plugging in sparks? The more caps/larger you use, the better.

AAngel, also I find that weird that the MM would see such a benefit for you, and not the Quark. The MM already has more 'capacitor' (3x 330uF) than the Quark, CC doesn't even recommend them for these large R/C's, S&T DOES recommend them, and from your experience the Quark doesn't really benefit from them temp wise. But maybe temp is only part of it then? Adding more caps to the Quark will definitely save the stock caps from blowing, but we don't know yet if it makes for more efficient switching with it.

I will have to see.

BTW, I just ordered a DX 2.0 for my maxx, so it will most likely be night and day for me as far as radios go...
