Muggy elecs

[mk351e]

I love my muggy, and you'll love yours too! I run mine as follows:

Tekno Neu 1515 1Y
6S 4800 20-30C
MMM
12T pinion
motor brakes
hpi phaltlines for street
crimefighters for dirt

If I were you, I'd just wait until CC releases the motor/ESC combos. As of yesterday, castle said they discovered and fixed the problems with the MMMv2, and are about to start production. The 1515 1Y does pull wheelies at ANY speed on demand, even with an 18T pinion(!). And I have a very heavy custom brace on my muggy, and aluminum shocks too! Monster Mike thinks the 1521 is better for the Muggy; my setup seems to work fine though. It doesn't run icey cold, but not too hot either. Still, if I did it over again, I'd drop down at least one motor kv in the 1515 series (2050?). As for your batteries, I hear nothing but goodness about Zippy's!!

regarding ESC's; I'm one of the lucky few who is awaiting the arrival of my 6th(!!!!!!!!) MMM!! I came OH SO CLOSE to getting an MGM, but it didn't make sense for me. My take: I DUNNO! =)

Id like too get some pics as well if you could lol. Yeah the 2050 kv motor is an option too.

There was an article about Adam Drake's lst2 and him using the plastic shock bodies instead of aluminum and the difference was a pound or more. Also someone on here said truggy wheels were about a pound less than the stockers. The specs say about 14 pounds, I am shooting for 10-11 brushless. Well I am hoping too get this started. I have some nitro parts too sell and a crawler.

Proline lpr wheels and tires will drop a bunch of weight. And the plastic shock bodies do save quite a bit, but don't muggys come with plastic shocks?
