RE: LST2 Conversion Question
[quote]ORIGINAL: csp1971 I have a Losi Aftershock conversion I did a couple years ago. I have a Castle Creations Mamba Monster 2200kv (esc/motor combo) in mine. The speed and power you get with a 6s lipo pack is insane. I brought mine out to a giant soccer field and couldn't even get it up to full speed because I feared it going out of range. It's fun, but it's straight line running. I put a 4s in it to tame it down a bit and it's a lot more drivable. [/quote] Same set up here... losi lst2, castle mamba monster 2200kv on 6s... crazy fast.

RE: *Official* Caldera 10E Video, Picture And Discussion Thread
[quote]ORIGINAL: nitrosportsandrunner [quote]ORIGINAL: Jhawk19 I just purchased a Caldera 10E off of eBay for $189.99 (Free Shipping). I'd like to change the body, tires, and shocks... Anyone know what my options are? Also, will this battery work?: http://www.hobbypartz.com/98p-30c-4000-2s1p-hardcase.html Finally, should I get an ESC Programmer? http://www.hobbypartz.com/led-program-card-for-brushless-esc.html I've heard that the Caldera requires some tweaking on the brakes... I'll have to check the Servo when it arrives to make sure I have the most updated S3003. -JHawk [/quote] that lipo will work good. but for the same money there is a 5500mah 2s hardcased pack on ebay. search for akku. the ESC programer for the ESC(i have the one for the ezrun version 35amp) is very handy. adjusting the brake force as well as the punch control is very nice. i also had a question. on 2s will the caldera pull a wheely?
