nice job.


how come iv never seen this?

This cars sweet to. I was thinking of doing the same thing, You should REALLY consider going to some 1/18th scale cars, espically if you have the best electronics for them, AND all those lithiums, Think of the possiblitys

Yes, I don’t have a nice CF chassis handy but here’s a mock up on an old test plate. You’d probably only want to use two cells and the servo would be mounted diferently.

Did I say where I got them form? It must have been a mistake, but ok.

The Front Deck Turbo LED’s are 805 surface mounts you can get them from electronic suppliers and/or LED retailers such as LSdiodes. They mounted on my front deck turbo along with a small micro switch that turns them on or off. The turbo is wired to the batteries and has a regulator that supplies the Xmod circuit board with a constant 5 volts. The 4 front deck LEDs use less than 80 millamps at 3 volts which computes to less than 1/250th of my battery power for this car. So if you left them on they would take some of your power but nothing you would notice.

The batteries go to the Front Deck circuit board once there the power is used for many things one of these is the input to the 5 volt regulator. The 5 volt regulator output goes to the Xmod circuit board for steering power, CL lights and such, it also goes to a resistor on the Front Deck circuit board that steps it down to 3 volts for powering the LED's.

GPM 3 Cell Li-ion 2x8 Turbo Mustang Gallery

I ordered the GPM parts from GPM.

Edit
Whoa exploding knuckles, happens everytime I flip the voltage select switch to 14.8 volts first the right and now the left, too bad I’m out of GPM parts, I have cup joints and a bunch of Mini-Z parts coming but no knuckles, I suppose it’s time to place another order. What color? I’m thinking purple or red. I was planning to put this on eBay before Xmas but now it will probably have to wait.

That will depend on what finely ends up going into it. I have way too many cars so I usually sell off my projects after I’m done. Just for fun I wanted to put this one on eBay for Xmas. I was planning on setting the minimum at approx. what I have spent on it, and then letting it find it’s own price. Unfortunately unless I tone it down a couple of notches it will need several GPM parts and they will take awhile to acquire.

Right now I am putting the hinges on the hood, and deciding if I want to borrow the GPM parts from the above mustang so I can finally get it on the speed checker for a test run. I’ve also been toying with the idea of putting a couple more FETs on each stack and cutting out a hole in the hood so that the top FETs just peak through.
