My 1st real run with the notorious, I only had it maybe 3/4 throttle and it blew my brand new GLUED tires lol. Holy poop I am so stoked with the set up and I can't remember which member suggested that for me thank you! I have plenty of tires but I see sum terrain belted tires in my near future lol

What were you doing when the tire self destructed? High speed run? Mine usually go when stunting in the air.
 
Proline tires are your go-to. They don’t balloon too bad on my 50mph geared e revo, but if you’re pushing higher speeds you’ll have to tape your tires.
 
Street Crushers seem to be the way to go, but as olds said, dI would not jump with them.

Still deciding on a Speed setup for my Talion, my look into this
 
I was just looking at your Typhon build as you wrote this. I am now second guessing my choice of vehicle.

Welp, time to by another one XD

no way man... my talion is my favorite arrma for sure... if you want to make a speed car get something like a typhon or something with a full body like a hoboa...
 
See I told you the Max8 combo was an improvement over the BLX185. How did you get to 75% throttle, mine would flip on its lid before I got that far.
 
I should have phrased this differently.

I am second guessing my choice of vehicle to build for speed. I still would have gotten the Talion!!! :)
I couldn't pass, only 3or 4 runs with a venom charger frysky controller and 4 sets of tires for 380 shipped... lol

I guess it wasn't lol it happened so fast just like when the max 8 esc burned up:(

Hooked everything up properly and perfectly too, it would have burned down as soon as I turned it on and I ran it 2 times b4 it burnt and no excessive heat nothing it was perfect

I know rite! They are replacing it. And best not even try to say that it was my fault. Everything was to specs and it had plenty more juice than what was going on and turned it on for the 3rd run about 1 minute and poof.

On the next one install the "optional" cap pack. And in that thread where he says get the wires as low as you can on the esc literally go as low as you can.
