My new Micro-T :D
Hey guys guess what i got :D :D :D
I got it in today :D only part that got here in time were the threaded axles, other stuff should be coming in friday(its coming from hong kong) i loosened teh tranny screws for some clearance(it was tooo tight and was creating slight binding, but my diff didnt seem like it needed shimming :D pix :D luckily the threaded axles came with red nuts(the nut color was chosen randomly by them) http://i326.photobucket.com/albums/k.../microt001.jpg http://i326.photobucket.com/albums/k.../microt002.jpg http://i326.photobucket.com/albums/k.../microt003.jpg http://i326.photobucket.com/albums/k.../microt004.jpg |
Hi! Lets ramp stuff!
|
well the batt only lasted for roughly a good 6 minutes, cause the bearings and bushings in the tranny arnt the BEST, but i have ordered a metal tranny with bearings and a set of shielded metal bearings, im sure that'll bump the time up to like 10+ minutes for driving
you got the ramps? ill give it a go |
I have a makeshift ramp that is actually a wine glass box from christmas. I'll ramp tomorrow and take pictures for this thread!

i love the 20in/10min charge/drive ratio, sooooooo much better than 45min/13 min drive ratio on my rc18 |
Nice... Micro-T's are awesome ;) Zippy little things.
|
i know, so much faster than the stock xmods, its amazing, got a small vid of it, i think something in the tranny is too tight, but not sure, here you go :D

The Micro-T is the reason I no longer have Xmods. I have just Mini-Zs a micro chopper and my Micro-DT.
I only used Xmods to drive outside for some fun, now with my micro-desert truck the xmods seem kind of boring. I like to ramp my Micro-dt a lot. I just ordered some sweet wheels for mine JUST now! http://www.reflexracing.net/proddeta...WH-10%2FBL |
i dont need rims(yet), but i was looking for on-road tires(pin tires wear out too fast)

yea since i only have wood, marble, and some pretty thin carpet, my tractions is either very good or kinda bad,
if u spary a little bit of winder on ur tires, it gives a bit more traction, and kinda cleans ur floors :D |
Looks great! Mycrors4 unless I haven't checked the parts recently, there are no bearings in the tranny stock unless otherwise purchased for these lil buggers. Also if you decide to go BL/LiPo, be aware you will go through transmissions like nothing, I am already onto my 5th one

Agreed, but I LOOOVe my xmods for chopping up and modding. They are the best for that due to low cost. I have a micro-t and a DT, and they are awsome. First 2 upgrades... Threaded axle stubs, and ditch the crappy battery set-up for lipo or better nimh w/ higher mah.. Those 2 upgrades are a must. Micro-t definately is the funnest micro out there in my opinion. |

I don't care for modding and chopping all that much. I like to race competitively. My electronic services skill has developed for me to mod my racecars and friends racecars to be faster around a track. |
hehe! god dangit im smart, u know those "magnetics" from a couple years back? well i got the boxes of those(took out the magnets) and i made it into a mini ramp:D took a small vid, didnt have a tri-pod so i used my backpack as the camera stand(thats why its taken sideways)
P.S. im not the best driver with rubber tires and a carpet lmao, not the best jumper either http://i326.photobucket.com/albums/k.../microt005.jpg http://i326.photobucket.com/albums/k.../microt006.jpg http://i326.photobucket.com/albums/k.../microt007.jpg http://i326.photobucket.com/albums/k.../microt008.jpg http://i326.photobucket.com/albums/k.../microt009.jpg http://i326.photobucket.com/albums/k..._microt010.jpg |
nother update:
got the bearings in now.. where do the 2 bigger oens go?!?!?! i cant figure it out did a small photoshoot with the titan and micro, the vid is not with the bearings added the medium hardness springs from the x-truck suspension kit to the rear, sits a bit lower now(cause its a shorter spring), sits leveled to the front :D http://i326.photobucket.com/albums/k.../microt012.jpg http://i326.photobucket.com/albums/k.../microt013.jpg http://i326.photobucket.com/albums/k.../microt014.jpg http://i326.photobucket.com/albums/k.../microt015.jpg http://i326.photobucket.com/albums/k.../microt016.jpg http://i326.photobucket.com/albums/k.../microt017.jpg http://i326.photobucket.com/albums/k.../microt018.jpg http://i326.photobucket.com/albums/k.../microt019.jpg http://i326.photobucket.com/albums/k.../microt020.jpg ^^^^^^^ Quote:

Looks great! Tech deck ramps also do good and "cardboard tech deck ramps" do good, go on instructables.com and look around on there, some pretty good tips for the cardboard ramps. You beat me to the bearings and I've got BL/LiPo :lol:
|
hmm.. tech deck ramps.. never thought of that.. ima go look around for some good ones, thanks for the idea
