I have been in this hobby so long that i remember when the r/c controllers weighed 10 lbs. LOL but the only thing i see to say anything about. is the fact of li-po's. I charge mine to full charge. an then i put them in a freezer for long term storage. After that what i do, is i pull them out give a quick top off to warm up the li-po's.I been using li-po's pretty much when they came out. talk about a tricky battery. you had to watch every thing you did cause you could over discharge it. then your out all that money.it has been almost 20 years since they came out to the r/c side of this wonderful hobby. so i talk with some back ground behind me. but when i took them out put a top off on it. then went to race never had an issue with them. about ten years ago i had to get new batteries. as mine finally could not push my cars any more or even my trucks. The one thing all people need to know you will get your moneys worth if you buy right. i buy my batteries from max amps. life time warranty. no questions asked. an i love my Hyperion chargers. never went wrong with the setup i have. but if you get a cheap charger and cheap li-pos you will not get what you want out of them.spend the extra go an get good charger and good batteries. in the end you will be happier to use them and have a longer curve time. an you will find out that the money you spend to the cheap stuff you bought is a big difference. do your research. talk to your r/c friends see what they say. an the hobby will last you a long time.an to all i ended up updating electronics and motors an my guys are still faster then most were the day they came out

Some great tips here! About covering the hole in the tire though. What is the point of the hole if we are covering it up to protect from sand and water entry?
@AMain_Hobbies4 жыл бұрын
Hot air expands, cold air contracts. With the tire glued to the wheel, without a vent hole the air gets trapped inside and is susceptible to temperature. So in cold conditions a sealed tire would actually shrink, and in hot conditions it would expand. The ventilation process allows the tire to retain its original shape'ish in varying temperature conditions. But in sand or water, or even snow, it's worth sealing up those holes temporarily. Hope this helps explain why. -Brett

Hi, I picked up an old 3-band 27Mhz RC car t(a very cool, HUGE Ford GT, almost 2 feet long!) that takes a 9.6V NiCd battery pack. It didn't come with a remote, so I bought a few 27Mhz remotes, even some with 3 or 4 bands, but none of them would operate the car (which I think is weird because there are only 6 bands in the 27Mhz range, so I figured at least ONE of the remotes would work). So I assume that to get this working, I must buy a new transmitter/receiver kit. My confusion is, the kits I see (for example, the AUSTAR AX6S 4CH 2.4Ghz) are all either 6V or 12V, but I don't see any 9.6V kits? What am I missing here? How does a 6 or 12v receiver work off a 9.6v battery? Thanks for any info.. (PS: Is it difficult to swap out the original receiver for a new one?)
@AMain_Hobbies3 жыл бұрын
The 9.6V battery is plugged into the ESC (speed controller), which is then plugged into the receiver. The ESC manages the voltage that the receiver receives, which is usually 6V, but it can vary. Hope that helps, but shoot over other questions. -Brett

I believe this car is what you would call "toy grade", but it's still cool so I'd like to work on it a bit-- I'm new to this so it would be fun to tinker/learn. I think the best idea is to take the body off and see what it looks like inside before I buy any parts. I'm thinking if it's cheaply made, it may be all sealed and self-contained, such that I can't just (easily) pop in a new receiver. I don't know-- Maybe you do? The brand is "1 Badd Ride". They're out of business now but this was made in 2006. In your experience do toy grade cars also have removable ESC/Receiver setups? Thanks again.....
@AMain_Hobbies3 жыл бұрын
@@epf1961 I don't have any experience with this sort of thing, but in theory, it seems like it should work. The only issue that could stop you, is if the car doesn't use a standalone receiver, and instead its somehow wired directly to the circuit board. Some hobby-grade R/C's come like this as a 2-n-1 ESC/receiver combo, but it's usually the real small ones. I guess you'll just need to get in there and see?

Prepare for it to drive better. More weight on a rock crawler is usually not an issue because they are slow-going, torque based rigs.

When I shut off my transmitter first ,the prop still runs when Boat is on??? not sure why
@AMain_Hobbies3 жыл бұрын
It's because your boat suddenly doesn't know what to do without signal. In the future, always power on the transmitter first, model second. When powering down, turn off model first, transmitter second. With this, you shouldn't have any more issues. Hope it helps Rick. -Brett

@@rickbarg3980 It's compatible, but i'm not sure if it will fit. Boats don't have much space inside, so that's the one consideration, and I'm not sure how that Smart battery will sit in there. I checked the boat manual, but couldn't find any specs on the battery compartment. If you have a local hobby shop, maybe take your boat in and try some batteries; see what fits and what doesn't. -Brett
