[MHeadling]

After doing most classes of Rc over the years, never tried Mardaves so thought I would get one for a laugh.

Got this for £20 of lad at LHS:





After lots of reading up on tinternet and on rccircuitcars forum got it up to race spec now for some action at Maritime.

Iv added, old Futaba 9402 servo, Novak GTX speedo (cheers to Rebel Rc for this), Mardave Ball diff,2s LRP lipo, HPI Saturn 20t motor,Take off alloy servo posts, new rear pod, Kamtec 6 cell batt tray and Kamtec touring car shell and new ali nuts

With all that power on tap you might want to add some weight, on my 1s lipo car I have a brass weight strip under the lipo, so that the car weighs almost the same as when I had nimhs in the car and also that is where the standard car set up with the nimhs has the weight distributed in the car, without the weight the car was too twitchy and I could not get the power down out of the corners!

Here is my Dave;

I have just started at Maritime along with Mark, Will and Stephen and had my first meeting on Tuesday night, came 2nd in the 'A' so not too bad....

I have to thank Lewis @ Team Xtreme for the car and set up tips as well as Will and Brett again for set up advice and the loan of some key parts ie. strapping tap and glue!!.. I can't wait to the next meeting. the more the merrier I say so come along on Tuesday night 13th Dec at Chatham for more quality racing fun!! Little plug there for the club..

I am running the same as Mark Headling with the 20T Hpi motor and 2cell lipos as well as a really nice old MRT ESC (thanks to rebel rc (Scott) for that, and Mr James 'the Master' Clifford for the welding!) it sure does go quick!!

We had read the Maritime rules so ran what we thought was ok but they have recently changed to allow brushless however I'm sticking with this brushed set up as it was meant to be a sideline in racing and I don't want to spend a fortune, saying that I have ordered some more shells, wheels and tyres so slowly becoming expensive but this is mainly due to me wanting more car shells, lol





Cheers for looking,

Scott..

[MHeadling]

Loving the Merc Scott, some good battle scars!

Im sure my Dave TC shell wont be looking shiny for long!

Looking forward to popping my Mardave cherry at the next Maritime meeting!
