I have now finished my ET48.3 build.
The build went perfectly as expected and was easier than I was expecting although I have plenty of experience working on RC cars.
The parts used on the car as as follows:
Hobbywing max8 ESC on a custom mount
Hobbystar 4082 1600kv motor geared 17/44
JX CLS-HV7323MG 23kg. 0.12 sec @ 7.4v
Arrma katar wheels/tyres
Tamiya pure orange and black paint for the bodyshell
Running 4S and 6S batteries. Gens ace and Turnigy Graphene
I built the car as per the instructions and the only thing I can see myself wanting to change are the diff and shock oils. I will try 50k oil in the centre diff as the front wheels spin up a lot on 6S.
The car drives beautifully, without a doubt the best I have ever owned. It seems to just float over terrain rather than crashing over it and it has so much control and precision to it which gives you a lot of confidence.
It also handles 6S power very well as the car remains controlled and rarely wheelies or cartwheels due to too much power.
I look forward to driving it more and will remain active on these forums!
