I have both Senton and Mojave.... The scorched fenders make such a difference.... Worth the $$$First time aarma owner. As the title states.... I checked all axles, motor mounts etc and lock tighted essentials. Placed Velcro around base of spur. Have proline trenchers waiting for the stock tires to blow. Bought a 15 tooth pinion just for fun. Trenchers shouldn't require it? Used gorilla tape to reinforce body. Please give me advice on chassis cover...traps heat? Will calibrate throttle and steering endpoints upon first run tomorrow. What to set punch at? Running a 3's Lipo. I come from a background of 5th scale gas so brushless electrics is somewhat new to me. Retired and limited funds, so just trying to have fun and get things right out of the gate. I'm NOT a heavy basher, love the short course trucks. I don't fly my trucks 30 ft airborne. I have a carbon cub for flying...lol. Any suggestions are much appreciated....and yes, I'll probably run it at 50% initially because I see its stupid fast on 3's...
I have not had a big problem with the parachute effect with the body..... Good that you reinforced the body.
You have already received good advice by others..... I have kept mine essentially stock... I have trashed several tires, always on the rear.... Have replaced them with stock replacement from JennyRC....
You will get used to your rig soon enough, and the throttle will go to 75, then 100....
Then Mojave
The advice for quality drivers and a good charger is good advice..... I upgraded mine about 6 months in.....
In the meantime... HAVE FUN
