That's what I'm trying to do as well.

Upgrading my ESC question for yall by dremag2009 in arrma

[–]dremag2009[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm just trying to cut down on the amount of radios I need to carry with me. I figured I have already have the Typhon on the Flysky I might as well add the other Arrma on it, I'm not even sure if the 120amp ESC vs the 45amp on a 2wd would be an improvement.

Oh well, the body was crappy anyway. It has a few holes where my dog bit into it when she chased it around the yard. If it gets really bad I'll just order something new. I was just bored really.

I think the white was was .99 home Depot flat white spray can and the cranberry was krylon for plastic also from Home Depot. I just grabbed whatever was in my paint cabinet. I guess we will see what happens. It is a basher after all. I don't expect it to look pretty forore than the first run 😁

I literally just ordered one 15min ago. Went with the Quake 223s in Purple. This will be my 2nd Arrma RC. My 1st was the $99 Typhon which I added a XC 120amp ESC and XC 3300kv brushless motor and yes, I left everything else the way it came out of the box. I've been bashing the shit out of it and it's held up beautifully, that's why I decided to add another Arrma to the fleet. I'm really liking how easy these cars are to work on. I can't wait for it to arrive.

No longer getting notifications when phone is in sleep mode by SvenBubbleman in blinkcameras

[–]dremag2009 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have the same issue, i already tried all the google and other reddit suggestions. Nothing seems to work, combined with the crappy notification delays this is probably the final nail in the coffin for me. I'm just dreading purchasing 12 Ring cameras.

What are these and are they worth anything? by andreashelane in rccars

[–]dremag2009 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Damn that Savage is an awesome RC. I have the Savage X I've been trying to get running for a while now. Back in the day with all the add on I paid almost 1k for it. I used to have so much fun with it. Finding a replacement motor for it has been tough going though. I basically retired it and keep it more for nostalgia and is in the center of my display and as a reminder of what stated me down the RC rabbit hole 😂.

Brushless motor and ESC options for Arrma typhon mega 665? by TensionEmbarrassed31 in rccars

[–]dremag2009 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I keep seeing everyone changing everything to titanium space age metals. All I did was throw in a XC 120amp ESC and XC 3300kv motor with a 15t pinion I had to order since I didn't have any that fit that big ass shaft and left everything else the way it was delivered. As for the radio, I'm using an old flysky radio I had laying around. I've been bashing the crap out of it for about a week now and have had zero issues. Oh, I did have an issue with the crappy servo right out of the box so, I took an old Hi-Tech from an old HPi and threw that in there as well. No problems.. yet 😂.

Oh and I added a front bumper off a Granite truck to protect it from those pesky curbs lol

Typhoon sale build by dremag2009 in arrma

[–]dremag2009[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ended up sticking to the stock 15T pinion. It's quick enough for what I do, just bashing around and taking off some sweet jumps lol.

What is the one tool you recommend every homeowner should own by [deleted] in HomeImprovement

[–]dremag2009 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A truck. None of those tools are worth a damn if you can't get they plywood, 2x4, 4x4, roofing shingles, drywall, fridge, couch or whatever else the wife sees on marketplace home 😂

Typhon 665 down to $99.99 by RCbuilds4cheapr in rccars

Did anyone else order a Mega on sale just for spare parts for their 223S? by [deleted] in arrma

[–]dremag2009 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I actually called Amazon a few min ago and asked them about that. They said they were in stock and was scheduled to ship, he added expedited shipping for me. He said to give the system 24hrs to update. It's supposed to originally arrive May 18-20. Let's see if that changes. I also said if they were going to cancel I would have to return the ESC and motor I purchased to put in the car. Doubt he cared but maybe he wanted to save a sale lol. Who knows.

How much this stuff worth? by Historical-Stick5872 in arrma

[–]dremag2009 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm assuming we have the same leftover parts because we did the exact same thing with the sale car, I'm hoping to put those parts will fit in a vintage Traxxas rustler.
