Help with hardcore modding.
I want to change out the stock electronics on my xmod. This is what I want to put in.
1. Airtronics ES-01 Micro ESC
2. Airtronics 2 Channel AM Receiver
3. Airtronics 94091Z Super Microlite Servo
4. Thunder Power 1900 mAH Lithium Polymer battery
For a radio I'll be using a Airtronics MX AM Radio. I am waiting for a Nuke 130 motor from Atomic. I have aluminum cups already.
I am not too sure about the Lithium Polymer battery because I am not sure I can fit it in, dimensions are 2.67 x 1.7 x .47. I am also waiting for two lithiums from Atomic too, so I may want to stick with using his lithiums. Tiny RC sells a coversion kit for my carbon fiber chassis to use aftermarket electronics but I dont think I would need it. I have some scrap aluminum I am going to build my own servo retainer/ cover to hold everything. Let me know what you guys think of my plan.
I want to add that I am doing all this because I really like the 1/24th scale. I can carry my car and everything I need in a small tool box. Lugging around a lot of stuff does not interest me. Secondly I am tired of people calling xmods toys and not hobbies. Going to the hobby shop dropping money on the table and getting a RTR Nitro Buggy or RTR Touring Car that does 40 mph+ out of the box is not a hobby either, but it is very tempting. The stuff I want to do with my xmod is all hobby. Lastly people should stop classifying xmods as toys and their high priced stuff as hobby grade. THEY ARE ALL JUST TOYS.
One last thing, please do not tell me I should just get a Mini Z.
I really like this forum thank you.
