TLR 5b basher

[RcJunkie13]

While it’s out, why not swap the pinion for a 21 u said you like better in the pipe vid

 

[DougStar]

Need to order the vertigo 58 spur
So I can run 21/58

 

[MonsterAir]

Have you run through all the gearing before Doug? I just went real heavy on the diff fluid and getting a tadd too tail happy. I'm thinking I may be able to tame it a little by going up in gearing? Running 19t now w/ a stock 32cc think I should try 20t or jump to 21t?

 

[DougStar]

21 /58 is the sweet spot

Yeah prob cause it's running leaner. Your tuning it normally at like 260deg or less. Heat damage would show bluing on the con rod just ask Rep lol. Rep or Sean could prob help more with what to look out for. If your seeing a loss in power order up a gasket + ring and get to work! Would make a good chance to check the condition of all your internals but I would wait til end of season and really beat on it til then.

Thanks Doug. I ordered up a 21t and some orange springs

 

[DougStar]

Gone back to the sweet spot 21/58 with the added weight of the last round of upgrades, I think more torque is in order took a couple pics

What’s up with the grafil

 

[DougStar]

Need to paint it

 

[DougStar]

So iv been neglecting my losi I have this coming
Its super low profile and the isolator on the right is going on
Then I need to decide if my lipo or power switch is faulty
Still need to paint the body

Both are pretty easy to test mate.... you really in love with that plastic intake? Think you swapped out nearly all your rigs to them.

 

[DougStar]

Nah only have the one delrin stack iv just recycled the pic
Yeah is easy to check just need to get on it

As you all know iv had some issues with the 5b over the last few months what started off , as the car cutting out for no reason. I Changed all the power wiring twice . Was done charging the switch out to @Team Ninja Pro power plug solutions and a brand new 2s lipo (out the mcd) still the same .
Got out a copy of the killer b instructions and watched the led blink 8 times 8volt cut off how? Not moved the dip switches since the install in 2018? So I reset the cut off to 6volts and hey pressto. I don't get how it got to 8 volts in the first place

Hey Doug, how wide is the rear wing on the TLR 5b, can you measure it when you get a chance please?

Cheers,

Milo.

I need a wider than standard Baja wing. The N-R-P one I have is perfect but I’m not sure the shape suits.
