Marui Samurai - Another SilverTriple's journey...
KEV THE REV replied to silvertriple's topic in Marui
Awesome work . You could re-make a Samurai in the end -
I have 3 x vintage Sanwa servos for sale mounted to a platform . 2 x SM431 and 1 x SM431R .Have old style wiring and plugs . Inc horns and a mounting deck . All in very good condition and tested working . Great for old vintage 3 speed radio gear if you have the TX and RX £20 posted UK PP f&f or add 4%

I thought about finding a solution to the rear tyre issues on the HB & SR so with some thought I looked at the SB 915s as they are good grip and plentiful . I took Brat front wheel , removed the front and back and the HB rims fit well . I removed the Brat spokes to leave the centre boss. I then cut the original HB rim beads down to 4mm outer and 4.5 inner , this gives a nice squeeze to the tyre like the original HB . The HB rims are slightly smaller in diameter than the Brat so I glued a strip to the HB rim circumference to fill the tyre bead . . More pics to come

And Saint Dragon , Super Astue just has the matt gray finish by the look of it

Yes , it is a brain drain . That's why I keep it simple

1060 is my go to for my runners , I've not gone below 15T . I have one 120a bl ESC/motor combo in a Lunchie.

A possibility for sure , the op can check through that . The motor pinion could be removed to see if there is any difference, or remove the motor from the car and try it hooked up to ESC

Found this on a previous topic :- TEU101 cannot handle insane current. It's rated for 60amps continuous. A silver can is capable of pulling around 50amps at stall (zero rpm). At stall the RZ easily pulls over 100amps. This means if you gear an RZ too low, you will overheat the 101BK. I know cause I've done it with both an RZ and a TZ. The TZ was in a Lunchbox w/ stock gearing. It would run about 10 minutes w/ stock gearing. The RZ was in a Hotshot w/ the smallest pinion (13T) that would fit. It only overheats in the 110*f Vegas summer. * So the motor should at least run . I would suggest an ESC upgrade anyway the 101 is a bit outdated

I did think that might be a possibilty , but not having an RZ , I couldn't say , but I thought the motor would make some sort of response to the throttle command ?

Sounds like your really having a blast - well done and good luck at future meets - smoother is faster and watch the faster guys racing lines -
Battery fully charged ? Try swapping your steering servo plug to the throttle channel on your receiver to check that throttle channel is working , the throttle stick should move the steering - if it doesn't it could be a dud receiver - which receiver have you got ?
