The power didn't matter much though, for reference my best qualifier was done on a half dead battery. What really matte...

The FR-01 is a great car. I have an earlier one and only really had few complaints: Steering belcranks rubbing and coming loose if used as is (I just added spacers underneath and used longer screws to get more bite) and my earlier model had a binding issue in the gears, which they have since fixed. ...

Some very cool builds that are stalled.

More parts, more chances to have one missing, more "chances" to have an unfinished project, maybe?

mo' parts mo' problems!

Unfortunately they lost their track so they only do mini-z racing for now.

Thats a hell of a photoshop lol

updated on the JRX Pro. I might eventually toss setup sheets on these too as I have to write some out anyway for next time.

It was in the 50's for temps, so I had a small heating pad for keeping mine and my friends batteries warm. Temperature has a huge effect on lipo performance, the C rating drops seve...

BTW if you want to make the rear more durable use hinge pins in the back that have E-clip on the outside of the arms rather than the stock ones that use those plastic clips. The ...
