It's the coiled antenna, and thanks man.:)

few little flaws in teh paintjob, but looks pretty **** good! nice job

[adamcrawls]

it looks like you rushed on the paint job but looks good other than that

[2wdpancar]

Not a few, lots.
-Lots of peel
-Thick coats(kinda, just a lot of flat ones)
-Bad skills

it looks like you rushed on the paint job but looks good other than that

Heck yes I did, it looks cool to me, I tried, I could've tried harder, but my spray can also seemed as if there was no air in it, so that's why the paint looks like crp(half of the problem, other half is that I suck at painting).:lol:

[mustanglover]

blt take a photo of it from at least 1 foot away with no flash and keep the camera still.

The camera is still and there's no flash, it was late when I took those pics, from my light, 123vette and I have the same desk light, what a coincidence.:p
I'll get one right now...

[RedSXmodder]

So, is this the track car? If it is, ditch the mustang body, its heavy as can be...

Pleased with the get-up and go of a 40t? I love my 42t pattern wind to death. The acceleration is unbeatable, and with a 7t pinion the top speed is pretty decent for a track car at around 22mph. For NI-MH's go with Intellects. They're uber cheap, but performance is very nice. I was actually going to pick up some Orion cells, because not only is the performance great, but they look uber sexy!

I use the stock gear setup of 9-24.
I am buying this tonight.:

;)
And yes it does get up there quickly, not a track car, indoor basher, something to just have fun driving with, no track at my house, but at Insideline Racing there's a nice one..

I expect you to have a car ready for when I take a trip to Cali. this summer. We can all meet and have a ball!

This summer, my BL xmod will be done by then, I shall rule you muahah:) .

Anyways, I was thinking of an evo dragster...like a narrow chassis in the front, wider in the rear, no RWD, but handling could improve, plus more weight distribution, and I could use 2 LiPo packs I have right now.

[mustanglover]

i like the paint! love the antenna!
iam working on a drag car so maybe we can work together.

Bought it like an hour ago or so, should be here in 2 weeks, just need my Deans in, wire it all up, jack the servo to fit, mount the receiver, and slap in my new 15T armature of 26awg wire in a bb can. :D

And on XMF I made a thread about lowering gear ration, crawler spur gears, translates into 25:25, from motor to spur, and haven't counted the number of teeth that touch the diff.

This thing should haul at top speed? I hope so, I hope I can get it to top speed!
Just finished dremeling the stuff, it broke, so I used to pieces.

Fits under body, wanted to raise the rear, with what? A gen1 bushing, it looks cool to me.
Opinions, comments, anything, I know the paint is bad, we discovered this ages ago.

[2wdpancar]

Forgot, I did this yesterday, I was thinking about the mr-02, took the front shocks out, and now this EVO runs it's front suspenion inbetween the shock tower and knuckle.
I will edit this post in a few minutes, with some pictures.

Wow. That is one big pile of wires. Sounds cool. Does it work? I am sure it does. How fast is it? Nice a supra body. The chassis fits the body. Fast=supra, supra=fast. Crazy servo to. What did you do? just cut into the case and put a servo there or what.

I tried programming the esc last night, not so well.
So today I'll reprogram it....and yeah I cut into the stock housing, removed the rear holder for the stock motor, and servo-taped it down.

That stinks. So the servo gear was right there, all you had to do was cut and remove the old one. Sounds easy enough. maybe i'll do that i have a hs-55 lying around too.

[RedSXmodder]

ummm, body roll much? I guess it just all wire. Whats up with you and programming aftermarket ESCs, lol?

[jc6711]

luckys nice

What? I mean I could get a stang body, I was thinking of using my vds, but not enough room.:mad:
I screwed up my Mamba 25, and I think I might've screwed this one up...

luckys nice

Thanks.

[RedSXmodder]

No, when you turn, the body will tip over with the high CoG from the elecs package, but now that I look at it, I notice that its mostly wires...

[dontspamme]

Looks good so far? What type of speeds are you planning to get out of this? Oh and very aerodyanmic :lol:

[mustanglover]

wire crazy blt!:o thats your new nickmane

Yeah, I get it now, see, this is as low as I count mount the electronics, but I might dremel a 1Piece chassis for it, so it can be lower..

Looks good so far? What type of speeds are you planning to get out of this? Oh and very aerodyanmic :lol:

Speeds, i hope 40+....
Aerodynamic? The body isn't that aerodynamic at all:p

[xmodzracer]

lol... wow... so have you turned it on at all. i am having this vision of you flipping the switch and it bursting in flames in your hand. lol just messing. cant wait to see the result

Yes, and Idk..

Like 4/5 seconds in, it's at full throttle, when you hear the motor continuing to spin, without change in sound, it's at full throttle.
They don't expand much...super glue works very well.:lol:
