YGM!

HB Lightning Pro huh. I have been looking into those. Let us know when you get them in. I am definetely interested. Are you going to be making a Electric conversion for it?

I am almost done with my own electic conversion. Waiting for pinions and trying to figure out a clean way to mount the batteries and speed controller. I have considered making a chassis for the ultimately clean setup, but the prototype will use the stock chassis.

This thread moves fast... I gotta agree with Mike in that most people probably will never realize the full potential of the Big Maximum. I'm starting to think that 12 good sub c's can not put out more than 1000 watts for more than a few seconds. You'll need to run at least 24 cells to peak for a few seconds at 2000 watts. Isn't the big maximum rated at 1800 watts continuous? That means that motor could probably handle peaks of close to 4000 watts!!! So, with about 50 sub c cells, you'll get a setup where the power supply and motor are about equal power.

When you get a high power motor, just make sure you have the power supply and controller that will allow you to realize the full potential of that motor.

The bigmaxximum , for sure is, one powefull motor. I can not give you any refference on other BL setups, i never saw one driving, besides the handfull on videos.

Next saturday, i will drive/race with someone with a 9L on his savage on 14 cells..

From candymans videos even with the lowered CG it still wheelies like no other. I am sure that it is one heck of a motor. Unusable power.

Not unusable, i can assure you that.

Ryan doesn't use a longer chassis, just the G-maxx.. .

You can gear it higher.. I did, insane topspeed, i will post a vid of it, as soon as i have one..

Cool. I really want to see your vids. The thing that I didnt really like about Candymans vids is that I dont think he does any "real" full speed runs.

He's affraid he burns his seccond speedo too...

:D

LOL...I would be too. Those schulze are not cheap.
