    3×2 huh thnx for the info. im running a pd armature an a normal close case but i cut 8 vent slots on it, it stays way cooler than it did before.
    is there anyother tricks to bend the PD com tabs w/o breaking them? i need sum how to keep thoes intact cus sumtimes my motor gets so hot i melt solder pionts off a rewound armature. is there a place to buy raw comms? where did u get ur atomic case?

    all the brushes are exchangable between atomic,mrs4 45t motor, plasma dash. best brushes ive used wus the ones made for the mrs4. carbon brushes seems to be way stronger and melt away at high voltages like the PD brushes. are thoes made out of a silver compound?

    ohhh austria! my bad. haha yeah i luv the resistor mod. jus remember to trim tha giudes on ur tie rod so nuthing bindes.

    and if u wannah more solid feeling servo, or if it jus starts to slip all the time heres a fix

    thats the main gear assembly of the xmod servo. basicly placing spacers found on motor armatures between the 2 sets of gears as shown. either this or a drop of superglue on the servo saver(part of the gear set right of the spacers where the two gear dis engage from each other

    this jus disables the xmod’s biult in servo saver. well it wont be tottally disable it. it will click* click* when abrubtly moved or when u crash w/o a body. but dot worry to much about disabling the saver. unlike MR-01 the gear wont break due to the weaker motor, it will give befor it will ever break anything. i have this mod done to all my xmods, including my off roader/rock crawler. nuthing has ever went wrong

    betty, tha lil cv joint are stronger than they look. cups go out way before the joint ever will. i ran em in my truck for a while now and they have never broke. i got my alloy cup from http://www.atomicmods.com they fit great.

    for one of my racers i used metal cups only in the rear since they are so pricey, and locked the rear diff. for the front i used a the ball diff slightly loosend, less stress for the plastic cups in front but still allows sum power to hav good handling and able to drift
