Mr BigShot's Must See Upgrade's

yo MR. bIgsHot. how did u get the pinion off the motor?

[Mr BigShot]

Just use a pinion puller . You can get them at your local hobbie shop or order them off the web .

[NOS man]

k but i need a way i can get it off without a puller

[tavisjohn]

A Puller is the only safe/reliable way to remove a pinion. There are other methods, however you could remove it by force, but you run the risk of ruining the motor you are removing the pinion from. Some have posed that if you heat the pinion you may be able to remove it, but no one has claimed success with that method yet. I'll be getting a pinion puller myself. (Unless I can find some replacement pinions)

[NOS man]

ok thanks but if anyone has any ideas, tell me...

[Mr BigShot]

Glad to See I made it in the Science section I have messed with my Xmods in a week cause I've been buzy buyin a new car I got a Honda Element <--- looks like a Mini H2 Hummer

[Mr BigShot]

I improved my set up for holding the second gear It's not done yet , but I have been so buzy . With this set up I think I might be able to get some real small bearings to hold the second gear shaft too. I also have a few more idea's for some pretty cool stuff in my head but haven't had time to produce anything yet

[neurokinetik]

Looks promising. Keep those ideas coming...

what are you doin about the gear ratio though, the 180 motors are not that much faster than 130 but they have loads more torque. you could put that extra torque to use

[Cian]

That big TO motor, is that the same size as a speed 300???

It was a loose wire on the servo I just resoldiered it .


Cian - Yes i belive it is " my big Block " I'am also installing The 45t in a car right now"for someone " its a little smaller.

Hey 3 series takumi - What you mean about gears I'am using a 11 tooth with my BB and a 8 tooth with my buddy 45t ANY susgestions you have will be "great" I haven't been messing with RC for that long only since the Xmods came out

Today I went to the local Kar Tunes <--- car audio installation shop to get some more wire and they give me a great way to make your power cables look SWEET !! You just take one black wire and one red wireand put one end into a vice "tight" Then you take the other two ends and put them together in a drill . Hold it tight and spin it and walk towards the end in a vice It braids it up real nice

[Cyslyde]

man i havn't seen anybody twist wires like that for awile hehe your right that does work great tho. and thanx about that wire, which one was it specifically if you remember?

[Mr BigShot]

This is the diagram that I used . I got it from a guy named Chino over at xmodrc 's forum . He is a proud member of "DSR" Drunkin Style Racein. To make it eazy what this does is let you run around 5 volts to your circuit board and any where from 10 to 12 volts to your motor Oh yea and if you want to go with more Volts you can add more batt's , but I useing 8 AAA's right now and you don't want to really go any heavier.Oh yea almost forgot I have the thing all wired up and this thing flies now I just haved to get 8 cell's under a RSX body Here's some pics
