7.5 which always ran ok in my SV. When I took the shell off you could feel the heat release. So I'll be opening up the side hole and the two at the outside on the front.
SP LPF wiht a SP v3 7.5 - I believe the DR on the 201 Vega is 2.6 - ran 78/24. Will get some more gears from Neil at RW this week Transmission is all free and diff isn't slipping etc. |

You can buy a similar bulk head for the B4 from GPM, have a look on e bay I am sure there will be some for sale or go to one of the HK model shops

It de soldered a battery wire at lipo end. Never had that happen to me before. Drive train is free and ok. My ex Durango with a 7.5 gt2 pro came off cooler! I know a number of people had heat issues on Sunday. Is it our astro??? Hope I won't have to get a new LPF / 7.5 Is the 201 a 2.6 ratio box? |

Hi Mike, I presume you mean grippy astro!? I doubt anywhere is grippier than our Stone track and in the heat yesterday my car barely got warm.

I haven't been running any cooling holes either and have had no heat issues. I find it all comes off cooler due to the large heatsink... the motor plate/gearbox/chassis.
Just a quick question. when you put the gearbox together did you use all the shims supplied to stop end float of the layshaft? |

Sounds like I'll be having another shell done in due course as I normally hate having holes! If you look at the picture in the link - http://www.oople.com/forums/attachme...3&d=1302458452 I've got the ESC at the edge of the car, thus may not be able to "breathe" with the shell so close. As said, plan to get a low profile savox servo and then move the ESC forwards and to the middle. |

This is my Vega (B4) not .1. Its a fantastic piece of kit and i cant wait to give it its first run.
Sorry about the wiring and the bad quality pictures.

New layout and much better
Just a question of whether to roll with the 7.5 or 6.5 going forward considering how much weight is in it! |

What's the weight of the car?
What motors are you running? I have the 28gr under servo + 92gr esc weight and the car is only 1572gr. A 6.5R is in my opinion to hot as a motor. I have a 7.5SP and it's more than enough.
