Project : Mugen MBX6-T Racer

Final truck update - M2C front and rear blocks.
I use M2C blocks on my buggy and they allow the suspension to move super free and make diff maintenance much easier.

I need to order the same. Unfortunetly, they are out of the front kit so waiting on that...


Seems like a solid setup.

I wasnt sure if i should go 5s or 6s with a 1700kv motor. How do you find your power? Got any videos? Is 5s enough? Thinking about going 5000 5s or 5000 6s. both will be 40c.

Hey Jeff, I'm running a 1550KV in my buggy on 5S, and it is plennnty but very smooth and controllable.

I would go with a 1350kv and 6s in a truggy or 1550 and 5S.

Yeah, 5s on a 1700 is good. That's what I run and it's great. 6s would be too many RPMs on the 1700 in my opinion. If you have the choice though, I would suggest the 1350 on 6s, but maybe not the huge 5000 6s pack. The 5s 5000 equivalent in a 6s is going to be more like a 4000 or 4300.

I run 3300mah G3 hyperions and they are more than OK. 5S is about right for 1700kv. very fast but controllable.

[portyansky]

Of course everything but the batts are on b.o. Grrrr!!!!!

So. This motor with the MMM and a 6s I will be set.
Thanks guys, sorry for the thread hijack.

Thanks Mike. Now I hope everything will be instock in time

[wallot]

about 13-14 minutes depending on track. we run 10minute mains so no need for heavier battery and VX G3 hyperions are able to push enough amps even from low capacity battery

Does these fit the MBX6T?
So the M2C ones perform better than the stock MBX6T ones?

M2c toe blocks fit both buggy and truggy.


did some testing during today's race and Proline bulldog body gives bit more corner speed compared to jconcepts punisher
