that's awesome man good for u and ur son there should be more people like u guys! so i upped my batteries a little went from 600mah to 850mah i get about 7-9 mins fight time now just wish it was...
my alias is about three months old and has been awesome, i did the micro motors upgrade and a week later it keeps saying my batteries are dead i have three stock batteries and they are all charging...
I'm running the sidewinder 8th in it on 4s, it's all bullet proof everything, i can go up to 6s on it but on 4s with my 28/50 gearing i need better tires! Heat hasn't been an issue yet.
Has anyone used the src wheels on ur pede 4x4? It says they are 5.5 in. In diameter, that's a half inch bigger than my trenchers!! Will that work?
I'm running the sidewinder 8th in my pede and it rocks! I'm geared 20/50 on 4s, temps are always good nothing over 130 degrees.
Appreciate all the info guys, does anyone run the optional center differential?
I don't really know how to explain it but when im in a wheelie it will rock back and forth. Would heavier diff fluid help and what are the benefits of a center diff instead of a slipper clutch?
You also get the better transmitter with the throttle trim as well.
I went with the sidewinder 8th 2200kv combo for $187.00 you can't beat the power and speed, i run 20/50 on 4s with no heat issues at all,the hottest temp i took was 121motor and 110esc. It's a beast!
Yep i had to have a lipo in mine to change back to nimh and a nimh to put it in lipo mode. So moral of the story change it before you take it out.
I just ordered the j-concepts g-locs can't wait for speed runs! !
The only thing that i keep breaking is my 12mm hubs,i knew this would happen i have 1 more set left then im going 17mm, any suggestions on street tires for speed runs that won't balloon like crazy?
I love this setup it's got all the power you need imo!
What kinda speed ya getting on 6s poorboy?
I srill run the gaurds with the sway bar,i think they still provide protection.
I run a 20/50 in mine on 4s with no issues.
I recomend the traxxas high velocity axles,i run the sidewinder 8th 2200 on 4s 20/50 in mine and the only axle problem i had was from a 40mph cartwheel on asphalt it broke off just below threads for...
I shoveled half my yard for that thing! Made another one too not quite as big as that one though!

Loving mine, so much fun! No more heat issues, no lack of power just a monster!
I'll probably go with Traxxas I haven't been disappointed yet by them. Thanks guys for ur thoughts and opinions more are always welcome.
Well guys I new this day was coming im running out of wheels due to the motor upgrade. I'm looking for your input on what's good out there in 17mm adapters.
This is what I'm running.
...
I run a20/50 in mine with the revo slipper pads and the i bars in the diffs. You should have a 54 tooth spur. Im running 4s so if you are going any higher than thàt you might want to gear down a bit....
I agree again maxx why just throw them away. Besides it gives me something to do on down time.i would rather put those $$ towards something else more fun then bearings.
I did a bearing check in...
Love it man!!! Plenty of torque and speed,just have to get the truck ready to handle all that power/fun.
