SO i ordered this kit because i wanted a better radio, i havnt built one of these in about 15 years and some of the RTR kits I've seen didnt like the way some things were done.
So now i have the kit and the radio i want, I'm not sure what electronics i need, i havnt been into this long enough to know the good servos and motors.
I'm not planning to race it just buzz it around the house
I started with the WLToys 144001 that kinda got me back into it and after i tore that one up i decided to get something a little better. My buddy got the Associated reflex 14T its a little better then the WLtoys but i didnt want to get the exact same thing as he got. I do like his truggie better his body is keeping his together a little better then mine i already tore up the front end on mine because of the exposed front end.
SO where I'm at is the truck and flysky GT3C radio are on the way i just need to order a motor and esc for it. I also dont know what servo to get, since i have the flysky radio on the way i dont want to get a high dollar server sine i wont be racing i just want something similar to the RTR stock one what ever it is?
The manual may have some of that stuff in it but i figured it might take me a few days to build the car anyway so i could order then i guess
I did watch one video about motors, not sure if i want to go with the 380 size which i think the RTR uses or a 540 size?
The speed of the WLToys 144004 is about right, my buddies AE goes about the same speed and i think his uses a 380 size but his motor is usually pretty hot after a full pack.
I was suprised his didnt run much longer then the brushed setup of the 144001 so even that electronics setup would be enough
Any ideas would be great
