Re: MFC-01 Issues

Figured out the popping sound is basically a signal the battery is getting low. Since I switched my radio module over to a Frsky 2.4Ghz system, it's been trouble free. Too much glitching running...

Re: Johnny's Grand Hauler

It's a weird little thing. I still don't completely understand how it works but it does. But it was one of the more difficult sub assemblies. Usually when I start getting frustrated with the build it...

Re: Reverse Beeper

What kind of diode did you use? Maybe try a Schottky diode. They have a low forward drop and faster recovery time.

Tamiya 6T pinion

Hi All,

I've read of others getting a 6T pinion for their trucks. What pitch? Does anyone have a part number they can reference? The stock 10T is okay but I want to slow it down a bit more.
