birthday present - 07.10.2006, 02:46 AM

I bought myself several new cars but this one I would like some advice on. I asked before for suggestions on putting a brushless setup in a pan car but here it is. I am wandering if the new mambo maxx setup would work and what one should I get. I am also needing to get some lipo batts for this, I gues a 2S would work. Any suggestions on batts and a charger that is easy to use, one button would be nice.
By the way this car is a TA 10L never used. It was a prop car in the nascar coke commercial and was painted by a warner bros. artist.
Let me know what you all think.
thanks.

Yep, a 1/10 Mamba Maxx controller with one of their hot motors and a 2s Scorpion lipos or Mike's Apache packs as well as a Scorpion 2s charger will make your pan car a lightning arrow. For the best deals, always turn to Mike.

Thanks captain. I will probably go with the m-maxx whatever the highest Kv one they have. I think its the 7400. , any suggestions on gearing? I think that will work for this car. I am not familiar with the lipo chargers. Is there a charger that will do up to 5S for the maxx truck. I haven't bought any batts yet but I would like a 5S setup with 6000 to 8000 mah. I have a heavy maxx with a bk 9920 and feg 9xl. The problem is I can't see well enough to mess with setting all the different settings that many of the good chargers have. I would prefer to just push a button and have some led lights or something on the charger for status. Sorry for the newbie questions but I am not totally familiar with the lipo area yet.

The Scorpion 6S charger is a possibility. You simply set it to the correct charge rate and off you go... The CC Mamba Maxx 7700 would be nice on 2s LiPo... As for gearing, I haven't a clue.

You should use a gearing similar to the ones you use with a 6-7T brushed motors. You can go up a couple of teeth, though, since brushless are more powerful than the brushed motors. But be careful, the pan cars can easily get out of control with normal brushed motors. Surely it would be insane to drive them using sensorless brushless systems. You need to adjust the diff, adjust acceleration, use proper gearing( refer to the instructional book, if you have it) and find yourself some good, hi-grip tires.

I haven't a clue what the gearing should be but I can allways play with it and decide from there. This should be a fun car to drive if I can keep it on the road. Thanks for the help.
