Electric Install Pics

[trap121]

I have my esc connecting directly to my lipo just like everyone else. Is there a downside to this? Someone just mentioned that I wont be able to race back to back because of it. Does it produce more heat this way?

Hi Johm and Jedi.
I tried the PT under the centre drive shaft in front of the spur, it fitted great there room-wise but owing to the close proximity to the receiver it didnt work as it caused interference. Hence my question.
Like you both have now mounted it vertically by the cells but I'm told on good authority (AMB) that mounting in this way (ie vertical rather than flat) can seriously reduce the PT signal and may miss you some laps which somewhat defeats the objective.

charlie- ive always ran my pt vertically from day one in my buggy and touring car and never missed a lap yet

Hello Charlie, I have my PT directly on top of the receiver and it worked with no problem at Southport the other week?

I will post a pic up to show you.

im not sure but he may be on about the mrt ones, well mine throws a fit if i have them close together, well they did before we went to 2.4ghz

Hi Damo.
That is so neat and I would say so lucky not to cause interference. My set up was an AMB PT alongside the receiver and apparently it went ape-sh** in practice at Worksop on Sunday.

I had to move my PT away from my 40 Meg KO 302F in TC as there was interference issues. Laps missed and steering glitches.

Not saying that anyone is wrong, just thought that its worth mentioning.

Where did you end up putting your PT?

[MattW]

KO 302 (and i think other older KO's, can't remember) go ape sh!t if you have AMB Pt's close to them (charlie - could have told you that). I found this in my Pred years ago, and also by accident in the Cat last year as well.

my pt was on its side by the lipos at kiddy and it was fine!

I like how you mounted it on the servo....I might have to do that when mine gets here.

Does anybody now if the Losi Xcelorin will fit?

[ben27111973]

my latest electrical setup

full size servo, sxx tc, amb px, spektrum rx - finally happy with the layout

and an "addition" to the chassis to handle the australian summer - well to help the motor handle the hot weather

I saw a very neat install, that was using the Losi speedo, fitted in very nicely

[MALLET]

Ben,

You not worried about the dirt filling your motor up with that cut out?
