Kronos xtr great find as can’t get them anymore, I think they represent better overall value over the kagama with all the 7075 parts they come with. With an xerun combo too can’t complain about that but I think you need a tune analyser to adjust settings with those(not 100% sure). Looks like it never even been run totally mint 👌

Supposedly this guy has over 50 rc and along the way figured out he loves the build more then then bash so he buys only rollers now and builds to his likeness then shelfs them after a soft run to make sure the build is 100%. So the XTR is RTR basically. I'll be looking it over before I run it for sure but I trust this guy so far! He has a brand new bug rock 3s for 270ish I may grab!

It's mint and the XTR is a beast of a rig. You'll see. 👍

https://images.app.goo.gl/A3LoygGWZp7sc6sX6 if it shows up.. anyone happen to know how I can find a DC power supply cord with 12v accessory plug (cigarette car lighter). For this.... https://www.google.com/search?q=hit...us-rvc3&sourceid=chrome-mobile&ie=UTF-8#ebo=0 ..... I can run my charger off my trucks ac plug (19 Tacoma) but then I'd have to waste gas so I was thinking of using my jump start/portable power thingamabob I just needed to use since it's 8° here in NEPA.

How about re-purposing a laptop power supply?
I rescued a 300w HP supply from the recycling bin, and with an XT60 on the output cable is perfect to use inside in the house.
 
Laptop power supplies are usually 18-19V. If you can find a 12V that could work though. Just make sure it has enough wattage. I don't think a cigarette car lighter can give enough current to charger your batteries effectively, not even close. Is there a reason you want to charge from your car? If you really want to do so I don't think there is a better option then to use your ac plug.

Can’t tell by the picture but it looks like an xt60 connector(maybe xt90) but just look on Amazon/ebay etc for xt60 with cigarette lighter connection.

So about the reason I asked about the 12v accessory plug (cigarette lighter in car) this power pack charges on the fly and I'm sure the 4s packs would be to much but the 2s would probably charge. If I can find the right power cord.

Also can I run the 12v to the AC port? 🤔
 
Ahhhhhhh, I get you now!

XT60 to a cigarette lighter plug, and away you go. It looks like the red charger input is the male/ESC plug, which is unusual as it's normally done so you can plug a lipo and charge up packs at the field/bash spot.

Also looks like the XT60 will output 13,8v when connected to AC.
Don't run 12v to the AC side, it's only rated for 100-240v, so a step down transformer/switch mode PS is on that side so wouldn't function off a DC supply.

That pack should serve me well in the field right? Lol I'll find out soon. Just have to locate a xt60 to cigarette lighter plug... probably going to have to dust off my soldering skills! It's been 10+yrs since i soldered... ugh anyone have any recommendations for soldering setups? I'll say $100 budget... or maybe more depending on my wife's mood that day 🤣🤣😂😂😂😂👹👹
 
It depends what you're charging. You'll need something with more oomph behind it to charge 4S and 6S batteries, unless you charge at a very low amperage. 👍

I've been eyeing up this. £250. 😬 But designed for RC stuff. Adjustable output voltage of 15-30v. 💪👌

And then hooking it up to one or more of these:

I charger DUO. £359. 😬🤷
These accept 10-50v input voltage, so potentially - if you feel brave and want to save money - you could 'liberate' a server power supply, like this one:

It's £21!!!

Lol it's wonderful with pay monthly or divided payments! That's how alot has made it to my door lol.

So what is she?
Click to expand...
She is a Losi 22X-4 Elite. In the UK they retail for around £580, but it has titanium turnbuckles, carbon fibre towers and mounts, centre diff and slipper, domed alloy shock caps, alloy Ackerman plate, adjustable rear gearbox height, alloy hub carriers, alloy hubs - the list goes on and on.

It's a lovely little rig. I love 1/10th buggy racing. 👍
