Have you actually tried this?I am thinking of using a diff esc (still for brushed motors though) with the mfu-02.
Is it really as simple as a why lead and no red cable used?
Anyone?
Giving what was stated above I am wondering if the BEC feed alone then is strong enough to power the speaker..... ? It's an unusually powerful speaker and without the 7.2/7.4v battery feed into the mfc I am wondering if it WILL actually work?
Have any of the crawling or truck users tried a sep esc with it?

On the plamodel shop blog a 'market test' M06L with series I RX7 body complete kit is being sold. Only one per customer.
Nice.

If you wanted to go brushless and retain the mfu sounds then you could use a servo y lead plugging both the mfu and the brushless esc into the RX. You would however need to disable the BEC in the brushless ESC, by removing the red wire from the esc or the y lead that the brushless esc is connected too.But to be honest, I wouldnt bother with a brushless. I would personally go with a 35 or 45 turn crawler motor. Tamiya`s 35 turn CR tuned motor is a very nice motor. I run a pair of these in my motor on axle crawler, and they provide alot of torque.

No problem at all. 0.2v doesn't make that much difference. I even run my Tamiya MFC-02 on 2S Li-Po.Hi Mark,
very interested in this. It is absolutely no problem using 2S lipo with the MFC-02?
I want to use one in a boat ! and am concerned if it will a) work with a 7.4 4500mah lipp saddle pack, and b ) if the MFC will can handle prolonged full throttle runs of a 540 or one of those shortened tuned 540 motors Tamiya makes for M chassis' (direct to prop drive).

have lived in log cabin where the toilet is a straight drop to the cess pit belowout there everything, lamb included, would be highly 'organic'
Melbourne, blooming backwards!
-
didn't mention anything about a budget for telecommunications & internet...can, long string?
I hope it went well - sounded great. I could do with some tasty organic lamb right now actually ... mmmm!
Would love to have a biomass home heating system. They are the way to go.

Inspiring.
VERY WELL DONE. You make it seem so easy!
Very impressive work and results. I should have sent you the basket case one I had a few years back.
It's very enjoyable to read and see your progress. You might need a wheelie bar shortly!

Link to live NHK Japan news channel online in English
Suggest we don't debate/suggest details but simply listen to the JP news and reflect in your own mind about it.
It's horrific, devastating, and a reminder that don't have control over everything that exists.
And there are lots of people in that power plant, and outside supporting them, who are giving up self interest to try and help and minimise the disaster. Hero's one and all.

Manuals are usu avail for download in pdf from Tamiyausa
is this the one?

Hovercrafts are cooooool.
Even dickie ones!
cheap r/c fun is GREAT!
I have a feeling since this evening that I want an r/c blimp! :D
Now to find a reeeeally cheap one! Challenge!

This is serious.
Your DS pilot licence might even have to be revoked.
:D

Almost certainly no damage done. When I was a teen (16 years ago is not that long ago!! ) nicads were ofcourse THE thing esp the SCRs and they would get charged till they were roasting hot! and put in the car. If yours was warm and you could hold it, then you weren't trying hard enough! So don't worry about it. I remember the old black finned TEKIN peak charger I had, the nicads would get so toasty I was initially nervous.
Over mah readings are ofcourse normal, if it's under then cycle or give it away to someone happy to have it.
IIRC its only the peak detection that is different in charging modes Nimh/nicad, as already mentioned by Mark.

It's terrible. Very sad to see. Lets hope there is less of this to come not more.
This photo looks like a model

No question at all, the best lipo charger currently available is
FMA PL8

I posted previously about this, its expensive but worth every cent. If you are interested in chargers and batteries, always listen to the r/c plane guys. They use batteries and chargers to the limits and are at the forefront when it comes to this area of rc.

Lol at Twinset and the flame thrower.
The wild dagger wheels might explain it - gearing is WAAAAY off now perhaps?
The gearbox is not binding?
It's just one of those days... try again tomorrow and cld be fine!

Striker as a first car!
That's got to be unusual!
Thanks to all the posters so far. I'll do some highlighting/better formatting of the years in due course.
-
Very nice! Looks great.
You built it with std tb's first and then replaced with the blue ones later? You're dedicated!
Would you mind listing the blue tb part no's for others?
The DS cult continues!!
-
Yeah, I pretty much intend to get one or two of everything that interests me - OOOH SQUIRREL!!! - sorry, I lost my train of thought.PMSL!

Unless you want the Clod only to look at or otherwise have alot of money to mod, I would forget it completely.
Stock Clods are rubbish to use. They are somewhat interesting to build (if it's your first twin motor) and to look at, but almost every other truck (2WD included) runs rings around it.
And given that Clod is infact one of the highest numbers produced of ALL Tamiya r/c models up till today, there is no fear of never being able to buy one.
Build and shelf ok, but to enjoy via using: any of the others discussed in the thread are more enjoyable.
Given the pricing, I would certainly take the TXT.

Forum has been rather flat some time. I hope this will pick it up a bit.
Lets see if there were very common choices of first cars in the year you started r/c Tamiya'ing
Since memories are bad, years will be bundled in pairs.
Add you first TAMIYA car under the year you got it.
Reply by quoting and adding. I'll start....

The smoke is very special and part of the smart tray experience.
It's even more special when someone else sees it making it while you are using it
They all do that, the cells have to be in a partic order. You may find those cells are infact more powerful now. Its called dead shorting I believe.
I was told the cells will only work once after but I have cells that lived many more years even after the impressive fireworks
Mind what the tray sits on when you are using it, it can get quite warm underneath and may melt soft plastics etc.

LOL, this thread made me think what about 2.4ghz transmitters?
Perhaps a rainbow coloured flag :P
I must suggest that next time I am at the track
