This build is the coolest build around dude. You must have a lot of patience and skill to fit 12-14S in a 1/8 truck. People ask me which is more powerful, electric or nitro, and your truck is my answer. Keep it up!

If you're truck puts out 9000 watts of power, and it weighs about 7 kg, I worked it out to be putting out about 1700 HP per tonne. Haha! The Mclaren F1 puts out 599 hp/t.

Now thats cool.

Thanks FR Rayward. Nice to hear it's appreciated!

The shitty weather came here again, so it'll be some more time before I can run it again, but I needed to strip it anyway and this time I'll put the water cooling in again:yipi:

What motor put out 9kw? Was it the Lehner 2280 or do you have something else now?

I guess the right was to put it is "pulled from the Lipos". It was the 2280 on 14s anyhow. I have some logs were the peak draw are over 10kW as well, but what actually turned out as power on the shaft is unknown. On the Typhoon the logger showed around 6kW.

That's awesome how the drive train stayed intact...
my 2280-5 Hi-Amp tore trannys, diffs and twisted custom 10mm CVDs..
Great Job, again..

Hey MC, is your motor mount adjustable?

Bmr4life: Yes, the motor mount is adjustable by adding shims under the brackets.

There has not been so many upgrades, but I have been working on the truck for some time now. A lot of parts has been replaced now and I have put the water cooling system back into the truck and made some new wiring etc.

I will get back with video and data when I have had the first test-run.

I found out that I had the parts to make a complete truck for the kids by using old parts...
This project is ongoing and I'm not sure if to start a new thread or just post pics here.?
The car will be a stretched SavageX (my own custom made CF chassie), central differential, The Typhoon 780 motor and a set-up allowing 6, 9 or 12s Lipo..

WHAAAAT??? :surprised: I dont think these two things can be combined :lol:

Any updates? Hows the kids truck? :neutral:

Yes please, Crill, how is it going?

WOW!!!:surprised: I just read all 30 pages. I saw "14s" and assumed it was just another kid with dreams of running more voltage than everyone.

What you've done is incredible. Thank you very much for sharing this build with us. Your english is excellent, your attitude is calm and collected and your build is amazing.

I wish I had read this thread sooner!:yes:

Some people are a bit slow around here!!

What does that supposed to mean???

Harold is fustrated that his penis looks like a belly button

I was actually having a dig at Harold for being a bit slow to follow this thread.

I have been amazed by it since first seeing '14S' and think the owner of this magnificent vehicle has done a superb job. I regularly check in on it to see what he comes up with next.

I dont need a excuse to dig at Harold, F him ! :oops:

this car is a beast ....... awesome insane power ........ but sincerely I think this car will be perfect with 6s and a bigger pinion ..... and you will have lower weight

¿you tested the max kmh of this car? ......... if you trie sure will make the world record ;)

good luck :)

My LST 2 BL on 6S is fast for me & only 5.9kg RTR, but, that is heavier & WAAAAYYYYYY faster & I still wouldn't attempt those jumps.........twice. Or would I?

Maybe.

Fantastic job! That is an engineering feat for anyone.

You have little marshals to flip you truck back over. Isn't that why kids are born? lol

at least you don't mind:intello:

Whats the point anymore he has chickened out :neutral:

No he hasn't. He's been focusing on other things, like work and another of his hobbies which is building speakers.

At least that's what he posted on a swedish forum :)
