is any body there???....and with a full charge how long will the car run for?

maybe something is binding up, so maybe unlink the servo and see if turns free...from there it maybe look to recenter servo...last resort it maybe that servo is no good or transmitter is faulty...I say the transmitter because i had one actually go bad in that way with a mini.

type of charger i use is the super brain 959.

hi i just got the 18t and it keeps turning to the left.

Sounds like your all set for oval racing:lol:

looking for advise.....I got a RTR RC18B completely stock, just collecting dust. My local track wants to start a new class. Why not Mini's. we run banked oval, carpet. what are you guys doing to run these on oval? any help will be greatly appreciated.......Thanks in advance

rcracer00 you should trade it to me for a 10l3 or a terminator pro chassis. just kidding unless you want too. i haven't seen any 18bs on carpet the 18t is fast on carpet i run mcallister latemodel body and it handles like a dream pretty much box stock.

Isn't the 18T tha same as the 18B? or is the truck 2wd?

They are the same.

i thought so, I also thought i'd get some tips from this thread, it's kinda dead. looking for tips to help the 18b perform best on oval. ANYONE?????

sad thing is i have never even seen a 18b i thought maybe there was diffent shock towers and things like that. cool guess i was wrong anyway i cant help you but you should look at running the latemodel bodys they are cool bud even has one for a micro t that is sweet looking. i would start with buds foams . thats all i can help with.

Hi all,

I have one of this RC18T for a long time now but I'm not big into electric racing. My truck had a new battery fully charge and after a minute or so die. The battery is a new battery pack and the charge is working because I charge batteries for my nitro cars. Any idea on what can be the problem?

Thanks in advance,

I would start by checking the motor out in the truck. Does the truck make alot of noise? If so their might be a bind in the gear mesh or another part of the truck.. Not only the noise, but if the motor is really hot when you get done running.

Next I would check the battery pack. Charge the pack and then check the voltage on each of the cells. Then put it under a load. ( light bulbs or a motor) then check each cell again under load. I think you may have a bad battery pack even those it is new.

Thanks for the help, I will look in to it. I appreciate it.

i just picked up a 18mt for $15. GOD does this thing need work...ton of parts on the wishlist at tower. this is gonna be a CRAZY ride. :)

My grandson wants a 18t truck for his birthday so I got to ask this first. Are the batteries the same 2/3 cells that pan and touring cars run? Those trucks look awfully small to have a 6cell pack in there. I run both pan and touring car but not 1/18 scale.

If your pan and touring car are 10th scale, you're using sub-c size cells in them, not 2/3. The 18T uses a six cell 2/3 A size pack.

Thanks Wazzer!
