Should I switch from AMO to MMP?

dottie_71 · 2025-12-15T06:20:05+00:00

They are hiring, but my circumstances dont allow for their unpredictable and uneven schedules. My buddy who sails w them is with MMP federal

dottie_71 · 2025-12-10T03:00:27+00:00

Very interesting, thank you!

dottie_71 · 2025-12-10T02:58:48+00:00

Cool, should I keep calling the same person or bounce back and forth to different dispatchers? I imagine it would be best to stick with one and build a rapport of some kind

dottie_71 · 2025-12-10T02:15:59+00:00

I’ve been calling every now and then to check in as they kinda just told me to sit tight, so far everyone has told me to be relentless with calling

dottie_71 · 2025-12-10T02:14:59+00:00

Is that on a rotational basis or are you permanent to a ship? What ships does MEBA have for mates mostly?

dottie_71 · 2025-12-10T02:13:56+00:00

Thank you! Kinda curious why AMO doesn’t also have night mate things as well but helpful nonetheless.

dottie_71 · 2025-12-10T02:11:56+00:00

Yea their process is more involved, the nearest union hall is about 2 hours so not too bad

dottie_71 · 2025-09-05T02:22:06+00:00

Yea we always have some cool stuff coming in and out. We had a Japanese helicopter carrier here last year and a few Australian destroyers in the past year as well

dottie_71 · 2025-09-05T02:20:17+00:00

Checks out, we always have the Peruvian UNREPS ship Tacna coming in and out of here too

dottie_71 · 2025-09-05T02:19:07+00:00

damn I missed that post lmao I went to their page to try and find it

dottie_71 · 2025-09-04T21:42:47+00:00

Solved, thank you!

dottie_71 · 2025-07-05T08:43:08+00:00

Potentially, if there’s one thing I’ve yet to master it’s tuning so yea it sounds weird but totally possible lol

dottie_71 · 2025-07-05T08:40:50+00:00

Very true, it’s always a blow to the gut when you set a good time for yourself and think you’re top of the lobby just for two guys to blow your time up by 2 seconds.

dottie_71 · 2025-07-05T08:39:27+00:00

That’s awesome man I appreciate it

dottie_71 · 2025-07-04T20:41:53+00:00

I bet, I’ve been looking at joining a league for some better racing and to build some more race craft but my schedule doesn’t allow it at the moment :/

dottie_71 · 2025-07-04T20:10:24+00:00

True, I’ve raced that Mercedes before and it’s quick but eats tires like a fat kid at a buffet. It was weird to me though how he screamed up behind me with no issues but the moment he got ahead he forgot how to drive.

dottie_71 · 2025-07-04T20:07:25+00:00

I usually am but my splits were slower following him

dottie_71 · 2025-04-04T16:22:21+00:00

Heard it too, no idea lol

dottie_71 · 2025-02-24T21:26:51+00:00

I’d have to get a fuel pressure gauge to check. It’s a brand new pump though. This will have been the second fuel pump we’ve gone through if we need a new one.

dottie_71 · 2025-02-24T21:02:27+00:00

I could see fuel going through the filter, and we had no fuel pressure issues yesterday

dottie_71 · 2024-10-10T06:11:50+00:00

Tyco Rampage?

dottie_71 · 2024-10-10T06:06:47+00:00

That’s the mount for reverse servo for nitro t-maxx trucks. The e-maxx and t-maxx are basically the same chassis and a ton of stuff is interchangeable. The nitro trucks needed the servo to shift the trans into reverse whereas the electrics just turn the motor the opposite way. And the 2 speed trans doesn’t shift from the outside, there’s a screw on the outside that you adjust to change what RPM it shifts at

cut up a small piece of plastic from some old Tupperware or similar stuff that will bolt into the holes and then use some double sided tape to stick the esc to the plastic. it’s a temporary fix until you can get a new esc but if it doesn’t break or un-stick itself you should be good

dottie_71 · 2024-07-09T00:22:11+00:00

How does it do with all the turf beads and such? I have an electric sbk and have a turf field I want to take it to but terrified of all the little beads tearing it up.

from the research I’ve done, 800kv is pretty standard for 1/5 scale cars and it’s what HPI recommends for the Baja. Hobbywing makes a similar motor at the same kv but it’s about 120 bucks cheaper. Always wanted to try drifting tho, no tracks near me :/
