Senton Trying 3s for the first time on senton 3s blx

[voicemaster]

Tore both rear tires, luckily I was playing on football field so its kind of soft. 3s is too much power for me, can't control it unless just going straight.

Sooooo there’s a laundry list of things you can do to tighten up your steering for that added speed.
Servo
Pivot balls
Servo saver
Bellcrank bearings
Aluminum bearings
New radio

My son and I blew tires on every outing pretty much. Even on 2s. HH will warranty the tires if you submit a claim, depending on where you are in the world of course.

You could vent the tires, I never tried this but it has been recommended here as many have had the same issues with the stock senton tires.

I quit trying and just swapped out for something else. Either way, hope that info helps.

Yea 3s is just too much for me and the car. With added speed, parts will break sooner or later. 2s is still the sweet spot for me, fast enough and parts break slower ?.

The extra resistance from those adapters isn’t good either

What xoes it do? Less power?

What xoes it do? Less power?

Extra heat = melted connectors = positive and negative touch = fire = big problems

Gotcha

A hobby shop will solder for you if you don’t feel comfortable. I suggest going to all ec5 or all xt60/90
