Building My 1st Midnight Pumpkin What Upgrades?

[28yoKid]

Hi All. This is my 1st post so I'll introduce myself; I am 28yoKid!

Since I was 7 -21years ago I wanted a MP, and yesterday I bought a special ed metallic one which should be arriving tomorrow! I can't wait!!!!

I have been looking around the forum and have seen that -as the model is vintage- some upgrades are pretty much recommended such as metal bearings (?)

As it will arrive NIB I have the opportunity to put these items in straight away, rather than take it all apart at a later date...

SO, what upgrades would you guys recommend me to fit????

Thanks

Here's a link to the recommended bearings for this model. http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti00...LXLWS3&P=ML

[ scroll down to the bottom and there are links and descriptions of the bearings. ]

By far the best upgrade to any model, I think. You already have an ESC so you should just have fun now.

Get some:

-Oil dampers

-Sport Tuned Motor

Thanks Danbox, -what are the best brands to get and where from??? Will the stock bits be OK with a ST Motor?

Tower hobbies and Stormer are good stores. This is the sport tuned motor.

Yes, it will work well with the stock esc.
