Strike

I been running my Losi Strike over here on occasion. Initially it was fun, but a little slow. So, I put a Castle Creations Mamba 4600 motor and Sidewinder ESC in. Better, but still not quite enough for me. So, after a conversation with good old Joe Ford at Castle, I stuck in a Mamba 5700 and a Mamba Max ESC with a 2 cell 5000 lipo. WOW! Did that ever wake it up!!! Now there aint nothin here in Kandahar that can touch it. In fact, its almost too much! I can barely control it.

I had to set the timing at the lowest level, put in the smallest pinion I have (19t... 17t is on the way) and a 90t spur gear. Still way more power than it needs!

Anyway, the body was lookin pretty rough, so I ordered a new one, and slapped a quick paint job on it today. Good enough for Kandahar!
