FS: Mini Power Capacitor (improves punch! - even with xmods)
 
Its a Panasonic 4200uf (Low impedance - much harder to find) 10 volt Power cap. It comes with a surface mount support, that can easily be removed by bending the legs up. Its dimensions are 17X19mm without the support.

If you want to learn more about Power caps in general, see this article:

I paid $3.12 through Digikey for it (had to buy 5 at a time hence selling extras).

.90 cents for the original shipping divided.

Plus another 1.50 now to send it (with padded envelope price).

So total cost is $5.54

I will accept paypal or other. But if paypal if you can add the 3-5% that paypal deducts so I can still come out even.

Email/PM me for details.

Cdog4w already bought two off me, so he can vouch for them.

These should also work with xmods, though you have to be comfortable around a soldering iron.

So far I've only installed it into my DTM SP, but wow. My first test after soldering it to the ESC was with a HPI stock 180 in my hand. Before if I pulled full throttle it would jerk a bit in my hand. With the cap installed the thing **** near jumped out of it. It also helped clear up some Rx interferance (27MHz AM) I was having since it reduced voltage drop on hard accel.

I'll post pics of it installed soon if anyone is curious.

Just added a shot of the power cap installed.
