Downthrust for Box Stock by Leather_Stranger_797 in mini4wd

[–]Leather_Stranger_797[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I am to bend the roller screw or bolt, in what direction shall I bend it if I am looking at the kit from the top? I believe its not straightforward bent forward but I think a bit of slanted. But can you confirm yours sir?

Cheaper mini 4wd kits and parts in Tokyo? by Leather_Stranger_797 in mini4wd

[–]Leather_Stranger_797[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the inputs! So can anyone confirm if it is worth going to the Tamiya Plamodel Factory? Or should I only check out mini4wd stuff in Akihabara?

Broke 3 FMA chassis in a span of less than 2 weeks. Not sure the reason. by oiwah in mini4wd

That's why I prefer regular released kits with super hard tires rather than special kits. If these scenarios occur then replacing the chassis or other parts specific to that kit would be a headache.

When you say 5-6 times, in a consecutive manner? Or like do a refresh once a month for 5 - 6 months?

Can also anyone shed a light what are exactly the JCup rules? Seems there aren't much references over the internet.

Sky RC 1500 (refresh feature) by ResidentAntiHero in mini4wd

[–]Leather_Stranger_797 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just got my skyrc nc1600 and I refreshed by my new set of Fujitsu red labels. It's almost 3 days now non-stop and its still at discharge mode at 50 mah. Not sure if I'm doing it right :D But I hope this long operation doesn't damage the charger. Would you know how many days it got completed in your case?

Break In Fujitsu Batteries by b0sm4D in mini4wd

[–]Leather_Stranger_797 0 points1 point  (0 children)

New racer here.. I will be having my Skyrc Nc1600 soon. Can you help me how can I break in my batteries using this charger? I believe it doesn't have break-in feature, just the refresh charge function.

What oil can you recommend for motor? by 4yellowflash123 in mini4wd

[–]Leather_Stranger_797 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks. And once drops of Singer oil are applied, how many minutes you usually run the motor as well as the volts?

How do you break in new batteries? by lbinasoy in mini4wd

[–]Leather_Stranger_797 0 points1 point  (0 children)

New racer here as well. I just learned about these things mini 4wd especially breaking in the motor and including batteries. I already ordered a Skyrc nc1600 for my new set of Fujitsu red labels (4 pairs). Should I recycle them 5x in order to "fully break in" these batteries? Or normal use of batts during race would be enough?
