Yeha that for the basic one. You've got more adjustment than whats on that faceplate. Just print off the bottom faceplate & you'll have all the adjustments.

The saga continues:

Axial servo plate drilled, countersunk, notched and mounted. I notched the back to clear the front of the 3 link. Test fitting of a servo reveals that I'll have to notch the front crossmember to clear the servo horn during articulation or raise the suspension back up a bit. Its good to get the fire in the belly to get the truck finished. I won't bother 4 linking the suspension as I just can't be assed. Once the motor and esc are in and sorted, it will get a very 'left field' body and probably a change of wheels and rubber and I'll happily call it done.

1500. Although yesterday I saw a 370 size 3200kv motor that would fit the stock motor mount......

That should work nice....not too slow, not too fast
I think the 3200 wouldnt really work, it'd cog like a bitch. Would go like stink in a straight line tho.

This new motor is sweet hey. A lot quieter than the last one. ESC seems to work better when you are patient after resetting it too I've noticed. Just have to make up a new plate/mount next week and I'll be ready to go again.
