more power and fifth cell
 
hello. I am new to xmods. i have 2 bit char-ges and some nitro cars. im gonna buy an xmod. i will mod it before i drive it stock. im just like that lol. so i was wondering. i don't have good soldering skills, so i was wondering how much more power i would have over stock with the following:

1. AWD
2. stage 2 motor (i will leave that alone 4 now)
3. fifth cell
4. suspension upgrade

i was also wondering if someone could post the directions to wire in a fifth cell. also, what is the preferred cell to use? i will run it on a high grip surface (tennis court) and i will be dragging. my neighbor has one with awd, stage 2 motor and some suspension set up. i want 2 know if i could smoke him by just adding a 5th cell. so can someone gimme the directions? thanx so much!bc36m :bgdr: b3spd :D

can no one help me out? i know someone has instructions on wiring up a 5th cell. what i meant about ill leave the motor alone, was that i will put in the stage 2, not an aftermarket spinbrush or shaver motor.

yea i love nitros. i cant race them now cause its snowin everyday. but anyway, i have these:

nitro rustler
old tmaxx
savage .21
ofna hyper 7 pbs

i bought every thing myself including all the hop ups. i love the rustler, but it cant steer when i crank it up to 61.6 mph lol. i got it clocked with my tennis serve radar thing. its like a blur when it goes by. the ofna has got the best handling tho

hey thanks for those directions. i am gonna do the mod now. but first, what batts should i use? can i use alkaline batts and the fifth cell as a rechargeable?

i drive me t-maxx in the snow all the time. all you need to do it put curan rap on the servos and petrolium jelly where the servos move.

hey when i wire this up, should i use all rechargeables, or can i use all alkalines. i am wondering cause i dont wanna have to resolder a lot of stuff if i dont have 2.

if i were you i would the IC3s. they are worth the money. they are also rechargeable. but, i just tried the DURACELL PROCELL professional alkilines (i got them free from my dads work). they are the most powerful procells ever. i have a thread about these titled best batteries ever in the XMODS forum. the regular one. not the gallery or mods and hopups.

DONT DO THAT, itll mess up the rechargeable batt, make sure all the batts u use are the same (mah rating and voltage)

RSXRacer001 12-20-2003 05:44 PM

dont do what? mix rechargeables with alkalines?

lemans23 12-21-2003 10:32 AM

thanx dude. im gonna get my xmod on like friday or sat or somethin. stupidly, i ordered the suspension, tire, awd and stage 2 motor set without the car, but i think it will work fine.
