I Love my Cheap Truck !!!!!
<font face="Georgia">I got this truck from a good friend and I DONT like Nitro
but i do like the truck ALOT so i am maken a few changes to it ....
</font>
All the electrinics are New and Now sit in the Reciver box like</p>
the Headlight and taillight connector</p>
and</p>
the Motor thermal sensor controle board</p>
</p>
what you see on the Motor is the thermal sensor for the motor fan</p>
the High speed High output fan starts to spin up @ 100F</p>
</p>
</p>
</p>

This video is NOT Bashing i was checking the esc to see if it was going to get warm</p>
and the battery was on its way out as i was runing the truck for 35 minutes before starting the cam as you can see by the stones all over the sidewalk</p>
But i dont think its to bad for 1 titan 12T motor Hauling 17.5 LBS .</p>
and the gearing is Not for speed its geard for rocks and mud.</p>
the truck setup as it is has only 29 LBS of pull from a stand still.</p>
so here is just a short vid.

I like the Jets of water that come out of the motor and off the Spur gear

But
I have LESS Problems with electric.
and Nitro DONT like water or mud.
its Loud you cant run it at 11:00 pm to 10:00am
it stinks
oily film all over the place
and Nitro fuelaint cheap.
and i if wish to go brushless it would SMOKE a 3.3's speed Bigtime!
I do have some things i gould trade for an XL5 ESC
thay run fineand one would need an new ezstart
but whats in the picture i would trade for the Waterproof XL5 ESC

RE: I Love my Cheap Truck !!!!!
i just got my motor Back togeather
its NOW a REmodified modified motor I rewound the armature with 18 turns with 1 continuous winding.
it Still has the RPM's but now has AWSOME low end torque and uses ALOT less amperage than 12 turns!
Now i got a 21 tooth pinion with the 66 tooth spur gear.
Here it is back in the truck it looks good

RE: I Love my Cheap Truck !!!!!
nice truck. any bigginer traxxas trucks are great but exceeds are a lower price. dont be hard on exceed they are decent trucks and redcats are to. they may not be as durable but great for beginners. all haters out there dont ruin it for the beginners, let them enjoy [8D].
