My RC Drifter !

[James]

Damn, three "my rc drifter threads".

Picked up this baby off Joe (balistic) last night!

Needs some special touches, but is otherwise ready for carnage already (thanks to Joe)

TB-02, factory, with Reedy quad-mag 19T spec dyno'd motor, futuba-type esc and futuba reciever. (havent looked at servo yet) Has high-spec electrical tape on the tyres for mucho slide action (too slippery!) Also have some spares, spare evo 3 driveshaft, pinion gear (havent counted teeth), spare bushes, and a sanwa stick radio.

Planned mod's are yokomo body shell kit, custom made drift wheels/tyres, swaybars, net battery hold-down plate, and some motor experimenting. And maybe a wheel alignment review.

some poor qual pics:

wanna sell that 3300 battery?

[James]

ross, mint! will be seeing you soon anyway for a drift sesh!

matt, hell no. I neeeeed batteries. I now only have two, this 3300mah one, and a smaller one that jai gave me.

I cant even run the 3300 yet coz i dont have a charger that will charge it. my old charger is like, for nicad or something, it's dodgey, gonna invest in a really good charger/discharger setup in Jan Probably.

Im also thinking about bulk buying 3300 cell's. like 24 of them, and make some pack's up. I've already god enough dean's bars to make one pack up... will probably get more.

buy bulk and the cells work out to about $10 to $13 ea. Unless someone knows someone that can get us cells real cheap. I'll probably get a pro place to spot weld the bars up. fck trying to solder bars to batteries, never works well haha.

cant wait to get into the action!

[Jai]

can get 3300mah batteries for about $190 bucks oh and thats for FIVE of them.... hahahha SWEET!!!!
