I have it pre-ordered through Tower. I plan on using 6s and the MMM. I may sell the MGM for another MMM.

Hay mkrusedc,
That’s a great build you have going there, I've watched several of your vids and have always been extremely impressed with your build.. The new body is Cool Looking!! how is the MMM holding up??.

Thanks for your time and have a great one..

Shaun.

P.S.
what trans are you using the 3905 or the 3906?? if it's the 3906 you can buy an adaptor plate for the 3905 from Mike for like 17.00 for that FLM chassis..

Ya that's a nice truck MK! Hope to get mine that sharp someday.

I just put hybrids and Hyper 8.5 diffs in my 3905 and it seems to have made the truck handle much better than before. The rest of the truck is stock with a Neu 1512/2.5D/MM/5s A123/AE 52t spur/20t pinion,(not quite stock I guess) speed calc says 31mph but I have been radar gunned at 40+.

I was putting a whoopin' on my buddies O.S.18CV-RX T-maxx today, he had a MPH or 2 on me but couldn't keep up through the corners. He was also breaking in a new LRP.28 spec 3 on his Savage with a 3 speed, it was FAST and still a bit rich. No way that truck will corner with my E but I dont know if I can hold him off in the straights, need my Monster so I can go 6s

Differant motor but geared about the same as it is now but the Neu is a bit stronger through the midrange than the Medusa in the video.

Thank god you are on the other side of the pond. I have enough trouble with all the 14 and 15 year old boys that just show up at the front door.

Thanks for the compliment. The tranny is a 3906 with GorillaMax single speed conversion, steel idler gear and input roll pin mod.

Thanks for the compliment. What shocks are you running? You must be a better driver than me because I could not keep her flat in turn until I changed to 1/8 scale shocks.

nice work with the flames on that Tango mk, the truck still looks in really good shape considering the beatings you dish out

any plans for a wing in the future? oh, and did you get it up and running on 5s/6s yet?

Stock shocks with RC raven and RC Boyz dual rate springs in the rear and a pair of RC Boyz and a pair of stock reds up front. I was thinking about getting some buggy shocks but I think I will just get a set of Big Bores. I have them on my T and they do fine for me so it would be nice to keep the trucks as close to each other as possible so I dont have to keep so many spares on hand.

I used BigBores with RCRaven dual rates springs for a while with much better handling. I really think in my case it was driving style

I think I will leave the wing for the E-Revo, but once I get used to it who knows? I was plannining on getting 6s for the E-Revo and seeing how that feels. Then I could just swap the MMM and batts between trucks, but not sure yet.
