Great combo, I will be using that motor or 910kv with 8s, as soon as I get my new house sorted out, as for kershaw's, he has some nice set up's and goodies to buy, but I have found his knowledge and business dealings to be some what questionable......just my 2 cents worth and expience.gosha said:I am interested as well. Looking at Castle MM XL ESC/ Leopard 5692 1090KV combo myself...
I was contemplating getting his grenadier before I found my xbe, have never bothered to re-vist it after hoping up my xbe.....7075 motor mount and runnng gear is so superior to whats on offer at kershaws.....kwidelski said:Do you think his grenadier or stalwart buggy and truck is worth it?
What upgrades did you do?bigfol said:I was contemplating getting his grenadier before I found my xbe, have never bothered to re-vist it after hoping up my xbe.....7075 motor mount and runnng gear is so superior to whats on offer at kershaws.....
I have most of 7075's gear accept the diff cases and shock towers, they are on my to get next list, if you running 6s or more you may want to think about getting some 6-8mm bulit connectors rather than deans connectors, less resistance better amp flow and they wont melt, I got a roller from him and up graded just about everything,check out my pic's(bigfol's pic's), learn to solder its not hard, watch how to do it on youtube, it will save you in the long run, kershaws motor mount works fine, I think 7075's looks 10 times better IMO. I think it much better to get the roller and go from there,otherwise you just end having to sell all the stock stuff on ebay and huge discount....goodluckgosha said:What upgrades did you do?Does it make sense to buy just a roller from him and do upgrade myself?
Or just buy whole setup and change motor mount to 7075?
Do Mamba XL2 and Leopard motor have the same connectors and connect without soldering?
One nice thing that he can already solder deans
Yeah it works ok, I just think 7075's mount looks so much better and it has a nice gear cover to keep all the crap out.....Kaz the Minotaur said:I have the Kershaw XB-E motor mount and there have been no problems with it. Plus I am using more power than his 8S set up.
I just converted Kyosho Inferno Gt2 to electric. Soldering not much problem but takes timebigfol said:I have most of 7075's gear accept the diff cases and shock towers, they are on my to get next list, if you running 6s or more you may want to think about getting some 6-8mm bulit connectors rather than deans connectors, less resistance better amp flow and they wont melt, I got a roller from him and up graded just about everything,check out my pic's(bigfol's pic's), learn to solder its not hard, watch how to do it on youtube, it will save you in the long run, kershaws motor mount works fine, I think 7075's looks 10 times better IMO.

Yes I got a roller through him via a mate of mine who was doing some trading with him, not sure if he sells them as rollers to the general public,upgraded the servo to a hitec. you can find my pic's here....gosha said:I just converted Kyosho Inferno Gt2 to electric. Soldering not much problem but takes time So you actually bought roller from him?
Did you upgrade steering servo?
Can't find your pictures
It can. It will depend, and vary, on how heavy your throttle finger is, power of the system, weight of the vehicle, weight of the tires etc.kwidelski said:Would having a 5th scale MT cause more strain on components?
Cool pics. From where you got CF upgrades? I would do front plate CF as wellbigfol said:Yes I got a roller through him via a mate of mine who was doing some trading with him, not sure if he sells them as rollers to the general public,upgraded the servo to a hitec. you can find my pic's here....http://www.redcatrampageforum.com/album.php?albumid=238
Looks like 7075 upgrade is a must...twissted said:I blew up the rear diff today. the crapy stock bearing sezed and to the pinion geat and housing out. I'm so sick of the quality of the bearings the Redcat uses.I'll be looking at the 7075 housings as well.
I bought a coulpe of CF plates and glued them together and cut them out using a dremal router table, you can't buy them off the shelf....gosha said:Cool pics. From where you got CF upgrades? I would do front plate CF as well
