Looking for a decent battery for bashing my vintage buggy. I have an 8T motor in it right now but it sucks in the buggy.

So I might go with a 17T but in the mean time I need a good battery

also should I consider going to a 7cell?

modified or not? single or double?

what is the difference?

Maybe I will stay old school and save the hard core bashing for a newer model... or not. I guess that is something I need to decide. I have been considering getting the new 4.1 which comes brushless and 2.4ghz radio I am guessing I would get the same crazy results with the new buggy as I would by pu...

The 19T will be more powerful, as well as more mildly tuned (i.e. - more efficient, partly due to ball-bearings). 27T motors are great, torquey motors, but, they are highly tuned to get every last bit of power out of the 27 turn restriction (they also run bushings instead of ball-bearings, per the ...

well, I just rebuilt the tranny with all new ball bearings and CVDs... so maybe not so interested in upgrading the tranny right now. Brushless sounds cool, but maybe not necessary until I run some of my current stuff past it's useful life. (maybe) so what would the difference be between a 27T and a ...

if i am asking something that has been covered somewhere else please feel free to point me there.

I could not seem to find the answer to this. I mostly found stuff that was specific to individuals setups.

4/18 - please check lastest post at botttom. Ok, I realize what I am asking is probably depending on how I am using it. I am basically using it for backyard bashing and such. (I wouldn't know where to take it to race) But... I want it to take off fast and be fast. What would be the best setup for th...

oh... never thought of just cutting off the sides I don't need... DUH! I have some like that. Thanks for the great idea!

The horn. My LHS had a pack but none fit

Busted the black piece on the steering servo and the LHS does't have it. Where might I find that?

tranny is back together and man... it is night and day! It is so quiet and runs great!

Thank you so much everyone! Now i need to figure out gearing and motor setup.

I want it fast, but I also want it to launch.

yeah... this guy is usually not very funny. But he delivered tonight so I appreciate him right now!

most people I have spoken to are not thrilled with his attitude most of the time.

ok, called my LHS and it just so happens he has a pack in a box of old vintage stuff sitting on the side. When I asked how much he said $11.50... my jaw dropped and I asked, is there two? He laughed and said it should be worth that much but he was joking. It is only $1.50 picking it up tonight to fi...

part# 6623 in the manual

bearings came on Monday!

started putting it together last night and I hit a snag... I seemed to have lost one of the teflon bushings for the diff shaft

where do I get one of those?
