Talking A few quick mods for ya'll

I 've got a few easy mods that I've done to my XMod, I jusr thought I'd share.

BTW, if anyone can think of anymore, post away.

-If you want to make your XMod quieter, it's easy: all you have to do is take apart the differential and put a light grease on all the gears (you can also put some thicker grease for an LSD effect).

-For a cheap alternative to metal bearings upgrade all you have to do is take out all the nylon bearings and lubricate them with some fine powedered graphite (found @ your local hardware or hobby shop). For directions on taking out the bearings, use the metal bearing upgrade directions: http://support.radioshack.com/suppor...oc72/72042.pdf

-It's a good idea to put a layer of hot glue on the battery terminals to prevent them from accidently shorting out on the motor's heat sink.

-To keep your motor a little cooler try polishing your heat sink (if you have the stage 2 upgrade) with a little rubbing alcahol and a dremel with the polishing attachment.
