Anyone using Smart temp on board gauge?

[bcr07]

Not sure if this can be done as the 2.4 is spread spectrum??

I have a Duratrax ir gauge but its a pain taking my body and outerwears off to check my temp.. The benefit is that it'll basically shut off power if the motor reaches a preset temp..

Is anyone running one with their slash or 2.4 system?

Thanks

I use my body reamer to cut a nice hole directly above the motor, that way, I just pull the truck up to me, point the temp gun in the hole and it reads the motor temp and I never have to take the body off. The esc I have has a fan that will come on and take care of itself. I also use the O'Donnell Temp Gun (http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...&I=LXLXW8&P=ML) because you can stick the point into the hole farther and get a more accurate reading. You could always get one of these: http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...VSEARCH=se1483
