I assume by putting a load on the pack for a second or two. Also discharges Tx packs at an adjustable rate, 1-3A.

That checker is really nice... Well worth the Money, IMO. I always just charge my packs when I come in from playing, but that'd be a nice gadget to have!

How many cells can it check?? Just 5 cell packs? or will it check 4cell and 6 cell too??

It will check 4-6 cell packs, NiMH and NiCd. I got it because it's more interesting than a Hobbico volt checker. I don't even need it since the TX pack for the Titan will be Lith Ion. So ya, it's a nice gadget to have.

It has a fan, back lit with red LEDs and has a stand(fold out). All metal too.

That's an esc in the radio box, looks like a E-X SS in the works.

Yeah, it looks like it is the HPI E-Savvy ESC.. but I just wasn't sure what he was trying to do.. guess it makes more sense now that he is trying to put it in the Savage X SS chassis..

I say it needs some high power BL setup for the big X SS!!

reckon i'm selling the M-03R, complete with MM 4600kv combo, sway bars, 2 set of wheels and 1 set of tyres and an unused TA-03 ball diff, does £100 (200$) sound excessive?

Hehe, dual 750's (or 755's?) baby!!!

At least I am able to cut lots of weight, no motor plate, gas tank, mounts, linkage, etc. Bad thing is that there's still no reverse lol. I forgot that there is a one way, so I'll still need to get the reverse gears replaced...

With the BL setup?!

Isn't the MM4600kv + ESC worth like $200+ in UK?!

I bet you can get a lot more... I'd buy it for $200, ha!! (if I live in UK!)

Oh yeah, Paint would be proud.. I just ordered the DVD "The Duel" (semi related, LOL!) from DeepDiscountDVD.com

I think it is like $7.9 shipped, not bad...

LB, like I said, one way bearing in tranny, if you spin the shaft the other way the truck will go nowhere. You have to use the reverse setup as the nitro's.

BTW it's Duel not THE Duel, sheesh. IMO, Maximum overdrive and Convoy are better. Of course, I have all of them cept' duel on VHS, haha, but that's cause I got probably all the truck movies that exist for 25 shipped. I even got a couple DVD's of the series Movin' On.

Wonder why the 1-way.. probably just because it would damage the clutch or something?? Hmm...

Or you are going to sell the E-Savvy?!

So I am ordering my WW 2 tomorrow, I know it says it comes with an MSC but from other posts people said that they were lucky and got a ESC with theres. Should I just hope for the best? Otherwise I'd hate to have to make another order but maybe that's the smartest thing to do.

*edit* On RCMart it sells for 113 opposed to 130 ish like from tower so I suppose I will be getting it there and it even says that there is an esc on rcmart so I guess that is the safest bet.
Man its kinda of confusing it says it comes with an esc but then you scroll down its a msc man I dunno.

They have good prices there Ill be getting most my kits from here from now on are they reliable?
