I would love to charge a Neu motor...but I made a promise to myself last year and if I can't pay cash or use a money order, I wouldn't buy it and so far, I have not broken my own promise.

Good looking CRT you have there, those gladiators look awesome on a CRT.

Looks like you've got a pretty big pinion on there, what size is that? That's the exact motor I plan to use (got the motor but no CRT ).

Have a link to that batt? Looks sick, never seen a hard case true rc pack!

Nice lookin .5! There sure fun arent they?

I decided to go the super elcheapo route. I ordered a 8L from hobbycity.

I hope the look of my truck comes out half as nice as yours. Tight work!

If I had the money at the time, I would have bought a Neu 1509. I have had everything ready to go into the buggy for a while...just no time to put it together.

thats funny...if I had the money, I'd have bought the medusa 50-3300.

its never enough for us.

both of our trucks will probably run great....yet we both want the next step up in motors..

well I got lucky and used up my 50% off at Nue.......I used to order a 1512 1.5d to tun in my crt.5 on 3s and 4s....was going to get the 1509 2d but figured the 1512 would be more flexable to use in other bigger trucks......with 3s and 46 spur and a 14 pinion should run good

A 1512 in a crt.5... You will have a hard time keeping that for being mistaken for a bullet !

A 50% off coupon from Neu...where can I pick one up...

Looking good.

I'm thinking about building a CRT.5 brushless and was wondering if anyone has tried b44 shocks on it? or would the tamiya ones like in the RCCA article be good? if not which 1/8 front shocks & springs for the rear and which springs for the revo shocks?
any input would be appreciated,
Thanks, Jordan

[magman]

Jordan...This thread is great for the front shocks, IT EXPLAINS EVERYTHING you need...http://www.rc-monster.com/forum/show...t=crt.5+shocks

For rear shocks, I use 1/8 buggy fronts..http://www.amainhobbies.com/product_...oducts_id/4359
