My custom Caster EX-1(first post)

[reno911]

I flipped the top steering plate and put the brace on the other side of the driveshaft.

I know about that mod, but it won't fit with my servo placement. I took a rear upper arm from a truggy, and fastened that to the steering plate and the centre bulkhead thingy. Should do the job.

I am going to try a 9t pinion with 10-15 timing today just to see if that gives better performance than 0 timing and 10t. Worth a try.

I got my outerwears airfilter for keeping the dirt out of my little mega motor, since its got quite a lot of vents.

I found out in another thread that 6-poles like HIGH timing to run cool, so I will try 20 degrees next. If that can get me up to a 10t pinion again I will be happy, but running cooler on 9t is also good.

Other than that I will try a 36-60 1600kv medusa some day, since I have one here waiting for my eight to get ready.
