Hi,
I have finally almost finish my Mini-X ... also added a plug for charging the cell without remove body and/or cells !
So far: I have the same problem of Bravin Neff with my Mini-Z TX !
On set up the ESC, if I do either Full forward or full reverse .. the set up is terminated ! I need to try to get close to the max in both case ... thing that isn't trivial .
With a lucky set up I can get full reverse working fine ... but I never got full forward fine ... with 3/4 forward on TX I get the red light on the ESC ... and over that I will get a stop and little reverse !
My motor get very hot too (6 cell) ... so far it is till alive !
Front Dogbone are tricky to handle ... had to put spacer inside the diff ... but is tricky to get the best size for it ... too much spacer end with less turning possibility ... too less spacer end with loosing dogbones !
Change a front right dogbone is a pain ... the servo connector need to be removed ... do it too often will end up on new fine readjustment in center steering and servo stufs .
I tried to adjust the front and rear weels suspension with 4 little screw ... First thing to screw these inside the plastic is a pain ... it look that it will soon get the plastic enogh damage for let the screw turn empty ! ... Second on the front putting the screws will limit a lot the stearing possibilty ... as result these screw sistem sucks a lot ... better to find little spacers to put below the base suspension ... at the end I removed all 4 screw in my mini-x
The Mini-X electronic doesn't look to allow smoth control like the Mini-Z ...
About top speed, stock 4wd motor + 6cell just 22km/h ... far slower then my 36km/h with Mini-Z F1 XSpeed 10T ... but accelleration is impressive fast and stable !
OK I till need to oil better diffs and other parts ! But doesn't look promising !
Not sure anymore if I can put up to 8cells ... I will kill the motor ... maybe I can go to 2WD with a nice 130 motor ...
In all I'm not very satisfy about my mini-X... only positive things it is that it cost just 77$ (all the parts w/o TX) (so 92$ with TX) ... so it is close to a Mini-Z F1 ... but I think Mini-Z F1 RTR for 95$ is a better money value !
Am I doing something wrong on my Mini-X ... what need to be done for have a fully throttle working with Mini-X rev2 ESC ?
