Vintage AE & I Got 870c Runners!

[slotcarrod]

Your not kidding VAE!

Anyway, I put a Yoki wing on and an old M-tronics brushless esc with a Speedpassion motor I had kicking around. Used an old body I had and took it out for a run on a skiff of snow! Cogging city! What a pos that esc and motor are! So I'm going to put in some LRP stuff I was saving!

Mmmmm....that sure is purdy!

Been following this thread for awhile....jealously! They turned out really good. Glad to see Runners in the title too .

wooo, LRP stuff I don't think I'm sticking with the Mamba Max. I think eventually, I will have one of those Viper systems PM has now. That could be a spring purchase, along with a saddle pack

[slotcarrod]

Those Viper systems look so nice and they seem to work very well at a great price! Next spring I will buy a few for the runners!

VAE, you notice my battery straps are super long? Hope the ones you got are shorter!

Cool, I think the mamba max will go in my Wraith for a FOFF build and the Viper 10.5...maybe will go in there.

As far as your straps...the wife is always talking about an extra inch, but looks like you got an extra 2.5 or 3" there

[slotcarrod]

I wish I had an extra inch or two!

Anyway, I got all my gear in and I'm going to take a rip on Monday (my day off )! Running stock #3 setting for boost!

[slotcarrod]

So I took the Old Girl out for a rip today, and my YZ10 ! Even with a skiff of snow, it was great!

An old body that I got with the original car still looks ok!





My daughter was taking the pics. This is the FOG and my son!





Hit the brakes, hit the (add word here) brakes!



Oh!!!!!!



Removed sweat from brow!



After the first packs it didn't look to bad!



Inside was clean!



Second pack???? Not so good!

[slotcarrod]

You know? The car worked very well! I'm very happy with it and I feel I could race it and be a little competitive with some better batteries!

Here is a very short vid, I hope it works!

[vintage AE]

cool

[slotcarrod]

I now wish I had got Tiffany (my daughter) to take more of the videos. That short one was by mistake!

Yes Anthony! I snuck over the fence at Blackfoot!

You added some ZC107H wing buttons (installed incorrectly) to add to the plethora of cool rare parts to this runner Man, I don't know how you can (but great shots anyway)

Reg, what's the proper way to install them? I have one o-ring under the button and another o-ring between the wing and the wire! Not right???? One o-ring only? Upside down? What did I do wrong?

Let me ask Anthony, he's sitting right in front of me-

[slotcarrod]

He doesn't know crap! I envy him!
