WoW, that sucks my friend. There is plenty of shops around here but how most of them stay afloat is something i really don't understand. Regardless of how many shops there is around me truthfully they usually dont solve anything for me........Since all of them pretty much only deal with HPI, TRAXXAS, and the million little RTR Losi cars they've remixed left and right.......

If i need something for my 8ight.....HA nothing......If i need something for my RC8B.....NADA....Mugen??? HAHAHA........and the list goes on and on.......

The only 2 cars that i own that i can actually find parts locally for is my E-Revo, and of course because its traxxas........ Second to that is my Kyosho VE/GT.........and that's only becuase im lucky to have a KYOSHO ONLY hobby shop in Miami which is one of the largest kyosho dealers in the USA. If anyone has ever ordered from MicroMacroMundo, AKA ROCOUSA.com....... uve ordered from these guys there HUGE in kyosho

Thank you for the answers Sir and sorry for being a PITA. I was just bluffing about selling my new Castle esc.

No worries....

We are sorry about getting the release out late -- we thought we would have it done before the XO-1 was shipped... but ran into some difficulties.

only like 3-4 shops in our state that i know of and couple them dont carry much rc car stuff

We don't have any retarded rules like that on this forum- pretty much anything is fine in terms of links to builds & mods etc on other forums- we're all about the learning & sharing

True. The rules are few and fair (at least I think so).

That's a sweet radio mod.

I now run two rx's in my EzRun 150a XO-1. One for driving and one for telemetry during speed runs. My rpm sensor brown outs under heavy throttle. I need to install Ubec I guess.

I could eventually let my friends drive channel one on one radio and I drive channel two on another.

It'd be like those big offshore racing powerboats, they'll have a wheelman, and a different guy on throttle.

Never understood why really.



ALSO.....

HEY CASTLE, WHATS UP WITH THE LACK OF UPDATES?!?!?!!?



srsly, am I the only guy waiting on this?

Update coming... Had an issue with Governor mode (helicopter) that had to be straightened out before we sent out the update.

Thanx!

Perhaps Sir might consider a cheaper option first which often does the trick- a glitch buster capacitor is nice and simple and may save you a few $$.

[bruce750i]

Hehe, indeed the Sir in question may not be very versed in the usage of caps. He most certainly explored that avenue with a big 35v low esr with similar results. Perhaps that was a unwise application for 5.5v Sir?

Shown here without the cap installed in the upper rx.

Great, thanks for the update!

I need some of that awesome torque control dialed in with a touch of drag brake and a sprinkle of timing.
