what my plan on your truck is to...

-first try it out. see how it drives and see how it performs.
-then put everything on the xt8. see which truck i like better. -from there i will decide which truck to keep and which roller to sell.
then i will decide whether to sell the batteries or not.
if i keep them then awsome.
if i sell them then i am going for the 4s or 5s evo 30s.
once that happens i will be done =)
That's true :mdr:

Well, sounds like a good plan to me. What other brushless vehicles have you or do you currently have to compare it to?

i have a nice MDT =D (micro desert truck)

and what i meant was i will compare the xt8 to the crt. i will just swap their stuff and see which one i like better.

but i cannn compare it to my old bl trucks (bl supermaxx and 2 diff bl revos)

all 3 of those were trash. i never had anything good on them. always 8xl, mm combo or novak hv-maxx. i am not saying that the electronics are complete crap but compared to neu and mgm they arent the best.

i had good speed but lots and lots of overheating issues.

I see . . . well that's what I was wondering. If that's what you've dealt with before - this will be a nice surprise :whistle:

t-maxxracer32 11.27.2007 05:06 PM
lol i cant even wait. you have no idea.

before i was using 16 cells 3500 mah on a mm with no BEC so id get about a 5 min run MAX. and that was with good weather conditions so my motor wouldnt burn up before it.

i had a crappy setup. im sure my gearing sucked but who knows.

i am so tempted to just go into my dads bank account and pull out the money and pay you now then just pay him back when i can! but i need to learn how to wait.........:whistle::whip:

Sower 11.27.2007 05:08 PM
That's hillarious :lol: Well, I think that's a good thing - besides I have it packaged nicely in a box in my trunk. Ready to go.

No doubt you will be happy with this setup. :wink:

t-maxxracer32 11.27.2007 05:21 PM
lol i bet i will!

im a kid so im destined to make mistakes... maybe my next mistake will be taking some money out of my dads bank account...... (i will pay him back in about a week)

Sower 11.27.2007 05:24 PM
Sweet. That's pretty funny.

nl12 11.27.2007 06:27 PM
Evo 30 all the way

t-maxxracer32 11.27.2007 06:39 PM
and that is what im going for =)

Patrick 11.27.2007 11:47 PM
You'll be limited to 4500 mahs with the evo 30's, unless you get the 6400 2p packs, but the 5s version is 90mm tall :surprised:

t-maxxracer32 11.28.2007 01:54 AM
ya but they will be able to hold their mah longer correct?

what do you think the runtime will be for the 4500s?

gtxracer 11.28.2007 02:25 AM
Probably 20-25min with aggressive driving, maybe 30min with regular driving.

With a 4s setup geared for ~35mph, you could easily drain them in under 15 minutes in race conditions, but it can also vary a fair bit. Three guys I race with use trackpower 4900's. They've used up to 2400's in about 6 minutes of racing, but sometimes as low as 1600 as well.

That's been my experience too. When the track is high grip/traction I can't go much over 12 minutes - when it's "normal" I can get close to 18 minutes at best. This is racing though - not bashing. I don't know what the bashing time would be since I just used my CRT on the track.

t-maxxracer32 11.28.2007 03:25 PM
well for me it will probably be longer since i wont be WOT very much.
so im guessing 20-30 for me lol.
