Getting the DRR to proper spec's.

[fatdoggy]

I've decided to put some decient radio gear in the Drr, not that what is in it sucks but I hate the perminent reverse on the esc so for now it's out of the car.

I'm going to keep the motor, tyres, servo and body for now. In goes my keyence A07rz and a mini-x Rx that I bought from tiny a while ago. It only just fits and it's a squeeze at that. Also found some nice kodak AAA 750mah cells here (http://www.nimhbattery.com/kodak-aaa-700-nimh.htm) and figured a good 6 pack would be a nice addition. Have any of you tried them?

Cheers.

P.s. I plan on adding foams, bearings, a more spacious body and probably an orion elite mod later on.

All right finally got around to it. I got some radio shack 700mah AAA's, and built a 6 pack(the cells were a major rip but for convenience...... Once I got it all set-up the diff went a little weird again but I threw a bit of thick grease on it and it's back to normal. Now the left bias popped back up again. I now have, when looking from the front two shims on the front right(one thick and one thin) and one on each of the two back left motor pod mounts(both motor shims from an old p2k). I also reemed out the top deck as ModemJunki suggested(thanks for posting that, it really helps). The car is really sweet now, no annoying reverse immediately(I've got my esc set to 3 sec rev delay)and no left bias. The body fits fine as well which was very lucky. Not blazing speed but the motor is stock, it's perfect speed for my deck though.

Cheers. :D
