I like it I just got the 4200kv Mamba and it seems to run pretty good too.


did you hear that they are going to start showing porno movies at the gas pumps
so you can see someone else getting screwed at the same time
I went into the gas station today and asked for
five dollars worth of gas......The clerk farted and gave me a receipt.

The Losi one, it's only around $3.00, but I've heard of taking the top/output gear out of the stock servo and swapping with top/output gear of the HS-55 too.

I suprised the stock type gear diff has stood up sofar, I'm guessing the out of box programming on the ESC and the HPI 100000# grease may have something to do with it.

You're supposed to put grease in the mini-t stock diff?! No wonder why I blew hundreds of those little spider gears!!!

friggin' pinion gears........
I've tried the Trinity ones because they had a setscrew, but the screw keeps coming loose and getting jammed in the motor mount screw in less than 10 minutes of running, so I put a stock (Maybe the factory original, I'm not too sure on that though) pinion gear on and it's started to slide off after about 10 minutes and now will barely hold on for more than a few minutes. I'm about ready to break out the tire glue...errrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

ive used CA on there before, but be careful, one time on a brand new motor I got the pinion wouldn't say on so I put thin glue on there and it just traveled the shaft and locked it up, it took me like 4 hours of spinning the shaft with needle nose and then running like 5 or 6 packs thru it with the motor just sitting on the table before it finally lossened up.

Thanks, I'll make sure that if I do, the truck will be laying on the right side.

Or use a medium/thick CA that won't seep thru the pinion.

Got 28 mph hour out of it yesterday, clocked it in a 25mph zone with one of those radar trailers, anywhere above 25mph it flashes your speed in red. Wish I had atleast a camera operator with me....................
