Well I just sold my stock setup and wanting to upgrade. I was thinking leapord 5898 1100kv and the leapord 200 amp esc.

Oops. I did it again. I don't know what's wrong with me lol.

I don't know what's wrong with me lol.

Its called bipolar...

Same here.

Just got a hb 5687
Max 5
M2c motor mounts and esc bracket


I am looking for pinion gear that has the same groove as the hb 5687. Same as the stock shaft. I think is called safety or something. Anyone know where I can find one. Looking for 25-27.

Thanks

It’s called (Safe-D5) but they only go up to 25T

Or Saga makes good ones but they are out of stock for another week or so... (no D groove but has dual set screws)

Man I am having hard time finding a good quality pinion. No one has it.

Hey guys I just received my center tower today. I bought a spare one last month before buying my k8 but It was the v1 and I had no clue that I had the new version . So called hh and they told they will send it out as soon as is available. So I guess this part might be available for purchase now?

Got a new charger. Now I can charge much faster.

SkyRC D400 400W

I have that one. Excellent charger.

A 400w 2 channel charger is just right for large capacity lipos.

 

[Niz55]

Installed mesh to protect the fan. Came out fantastic.

 

[Niz55]

Size of the screw that connects the rear bottom brace to the center tower.

It is a 5mm

 

[Niz55]

My God this charger is a beast! It is huge and extremely powerful. Charged my 8000mah battery in 16min at 15amps.

Extremely good quality. Pressing the buttons feel very very solid. Easy to navigate and setup different memory .

Very happy with the purchase and great service from motionrc.

Nice. The color scheme and cables look different to mine. Are those cables supplied with the charger?

 

[Niz55]

i used the balance port and cables that it came with (7s) and used my old +/- charging ports (EC5). i also warped the cables it Tesa tape for a cleaner look.

 

[Jimbobjr]

Long 7s balance leads are pretty cheap on eBay or amazon. Great charger, I have the same one.

 

[Niz55]

Installed the motor and the stock fan. Changed the center diff fluid .

Tommorow I have to solder the esc.

That fan position... makes sense on a brushed motor.

I was thinking the same. it could actually block air flow. looks awesome though. side mounted may be a better choice.

 

[Niz55]

Can't really do a side mount. I need a flat spot. I used high temp rtv to mount the fan. I think it should be ok.
