No, the motor doesnt come with screws at all......for the speed 300 motor you will need to get 3mm button head screws. Dont know how long it takes Rad to ship.:D

well the 300's showed up to day and WOW!!!!!:eek: this thing is fast!! but i have some problems.

1. when the car is about 100ft away and i mash the trottle the streeing gos every where. same with my bros car but his dosnt do it as much as mine.

what i think is happining is

1. the "quick caps" are not installed right or dont work well.

2. the esc is over worked and not letting the servo (micro hs 55) get power/or not enough

3. the batteries which got warm are over worked.

4. bad servo.

5. or just dont do speed runs.:(

problem 2. pinoin wont come off motor and when i tryed i started to pull the amature out!!

thnks eric

o yeah IT CAME WITH SCREWS!!!!!!!!

did you install the caps right, you need to solder them onto the pos and neg terminals of the motor.

taking a look at the cap it seems that it doesnt matter.......did you solder it too the pos and neg terminals of the motor.

yes i did. i put in the old servo and it made it better but it turns left when its about 100ft away (better then it was before)

Then you need to make sure that your electronic's placement is good......make sure that the power wires like the batt leads and motor leads are not close to the rx.......move the esc if you have too.......is there another freq you can switch too.

You might want to consider getting an FM radio system......a much cleaner signal then AM.:D

but much more expensive.

or take the one off my dads t-maxx.:D

i put heatsrink and electricle tape on all the wires, and repalced the servo hopefully that helps.
