That was very nice of Intelli to help you. We are glad you like the K3...


Currently, we will provide an adapter for free for all customers who purchase a charger and at least (1) lipo pack. This is necessary due to the charger having a JST connector.

This is assuming that the customer purchases a connector for the pack. We will match up the connector on the pack with the adapter.

This link, I think, should answer all your questions.

What type of surface or track do you run on and how large?

I generally prefer a higher ratio so that the motor does not become too overworked.

I would try the ratio that you currently have. The car should fly. Just be cautious of the motor temps.

Thanks.

Today..i was bashing in the street...same setup...and I was 20+ minutes on the lipo pack.

The best thing about the lipos is that there is NO bleed off on the pack like you get with NiMH cells....

You get the full power band throughout the entire pack....hence the FLAT discharge curve on lipo cells.

Keeping the truck setup consistant in both setups...it would be VERY HARD, not impossible.....but VERY VERY HARD.

Intelli,

you have some great recocommended gearing setups for this truck.....what would be your recommendation for drivers to try? For speed, and for Torque?

I have been testing some new motors as of late. I find the 280BB motors to be the best of both worlds when modified properly. The 6V 280BB motor is very promising the only issues that I have with them is their cost and longer can.
