Insane T3 - 09-02-2004, 08:17 PM

You know that little Associated T3 I have that everyone keeps
commenting that it's so fast?

It just got FASTER!

I stopped by Leisure Hours on the way home and bought
a Novak brushless system for it. It's freakin' insane.
When I hold it off the ground and hit the throttle, the tires
become pancakes!

Can't wait to bring it out for a bash.

The only reason Rusty didn't take the Showdown with his Brushless Rustler, was a misjudged battery. That was against all Nitros......

Damn brushless system....

I was running it in front of my house this morning and
lost control of the steering. I thought the servo went bad
so I changed it. Still chattering and freaking out.
A while (and a whole bunch of troubleshooting) later,
I discovered that the BEC on the brushless controller
was putting out 7.2 volts. (Instead of ~5volts.)

Dammit! Now I have to box it up and send it to Novak.

Worse yet, I have to go back to brushes.....

Oh well.....
