Finally My FS 1/5 MT

[Octane]

Hello everybody!

Finally I got my FS 1/5 MT Hummer and i'm very happy.
This car is so HUGE!!! I never see one likes that.
As SickBoy said, i bought the 4WD version (thanks sickboy)

Now, i'm finishing the second tank to break in.

See as below some pictures.










In the second tank, when i acelerate the car, the car releases much smoke from the pipe, but not loose power or RPM. It's normal on the Gasoline engines?

I don't know because I'm acostumed with the Nitro Cars.

Thank you.

sweeeeeeettt.. looking really good, looks like you got the new version, holes in the airfilter and black arms instead of red, nice body on there too..
have you gone over it yet?
check everything before running,
the smoke is ok,better than no smoke lol.. but check you needle settings and fuel to oil ratio, oh and install a clunk fuel filter..

Thanks fsmt4wd

I really love this car ;D

Really that this car is the new version? NICE =D
So I don't need to change the Air filter, right?
I will buy outerwears for air filter and for engine recoil too.

I already saw on this forum that needs to change the stock thortle servo horn to a big one. In my case, i don't need to change, the servo can acelerate at the maximum and the brake is really good. I think that's because the new version fixed this problem =D.

The wheels contiunes flexible and i got scare when i make a high speed curve, lol

The radio sistem cames with 27mhz FM. so i changed to a 2.4ghz Sawna MX-3FHS radio sistem to avoid some problems.

About the Break in process, i already finished with sucessfull the 2 long tanks. =D
I acelerate this car at the maximum speed on the asphault on third tank and it got a amazing speed =D

Nexts steps, i will buy the outerwears, the HiTecs servos and the FS exhaust.

i would get a new air filter too, the hpi ones are cheap and good and bolt right on.. the wheels are too big, that was the first thing i changed..
please before you go for another run strip the diffs and fill em with proper grease/FG grease..

OK. Thanks for the advise

hi octane so at last its in good on you mucker like fs mt 4wd said give it a god going over loctite it all metal to metal
also i advise you to bin the air filter get your self a 2 stage filter that would be 2 different types of foam and then with the nylon over that they work the best for off road
also if you are looking for a good pipe then here are a few pipes that will fit our cars RN Tuning,mielke jet prov2 ect they all have the power

Jetprov2( without silencer) less torque then the RN but a lot
of more rpm and great mid.

RN pipe has alot of tourqe
in this pipe, but lack of rpm makes it boring. Nice sound and look.

Mielke. A little more tourqe then JetproV2 but not as much as
the RN. Almost as good rpm as the jetproV2.

good look hunting

Hi FSmt4wd. Thank you, I already finished the "homework" =D

Sickboy, how about the FS pipe?
It's good? I'm looking for a cheaper one.

Thank you
