Awesome.

thanks and thanks for the help too

I just finished trying my truck with 5S and it's still freakish fast. I have attached the graph of the run. It took a while for me to start running the truck as the wind is blowing at around 30MPH and it blew my hat off. I also had to switch 2 of the wires. At 3:30 sec my hat flew off again :lol:.

I just ran mines on 5s today also it still runs nice I used my new battery which is a polyquest 4500 30c pack its killer

the wire from the battery makes the esc look like 16gauge or some crappy speaker wire

Satttheman, did your 1521 come with a 8mm shaft? If not did you have to special order for the 5mm shaft? If it is 8mm,, where did you get a pinion for it?

I wanna do a 1521 on 5S. I can get two 5S 5000mah packs and run them parallel for 10000mah total on 5S. That should run me hopefully an hour on my LST2.

I got it from mike he should still have them in stock

I ran my Muggy for the first time this morning and i wasn't that bad. I'm running a 8XL, MM, 4S, 18T Pinion, stock gearing. Fully loaded it weighs in at 11.5 lbs., it seemed really fast and balloned the 40 series Big Joes easily, but the temps were a little too high for me. The MM was 160, motor 160, Lipo 120.

I switched to a 16T and the temps went down. MM 125, motor 140, lipo 105. It probably didn't help that I was running Bog Joe tires too. They seem way too heavy for this setup, but I liked the way it handled. A big difference from my LST2.

Does anyone have the weight for one stock Muggy tire and rim?

stock muggy wheel/tire is 329 g, or about 11.5 oz.

Wow I thought there would be a bigger difference.

Thanks bdebde, a 40 series big joe and velocity rim weigh 14oz., 2.5oz. isn't that big of a deal. I might as well keep them.

that's alot that's almost 3/4 lbs of rotating mass

I think I almost crapped myself!

That is a huge truck, and the motor flings it around like it weighs nothing!!!! I love it! I NEED ONE!

Very nice dude! That thing is a BEAT! I thought dinosaurs were extinct!

thanx. I got to make a vid of my 3905 emaxx it crazier!!! I like to overpower everything

so if you buy the brushless motor mount, it replaces the brake servo? does this mean you can only use motor brakes and not mechanical brakes?
how would using motor brakes work with a center diff?

thanks

Motor brakes work fine with a center diff, just need to go a little heavier weight on the center diff fluid. Mechanical brakes can be done with a spacer in front of the motor, if you have to have mechanical brakes.

with a spacer infront of the motor? how would that work seeing as there isnt a servo there anymore? i will probably just use motor braking but i am still curious as to how mechanical braking would work

You'll need to find a place to mount the servo, but what the spacer does is push the motor farther back so that the motor can will not hit the brake pads and disk..

im ust curious as to whether the Muggy uses the same chassis as the 8ight-T? If it does, then technically this conversion kit should work for the muggy: http://www.rc-monster.com/proddetail...R400836&cat=22

Any thoughts?

The Muggy is not the same chassis as the 8t. A brake spacer should allow you to utilize the mechanial brakes. If you use a single high torque servo for steering, you have a built in servo location for brakes - just need to bend some linkage to allow it to pull the brake levers. :)

do you think the finned version of that motor would fit in, or does it have to be a smooth can? also, do you have the dust cover on the back of it? because i was thinking if i got one i would probably buy the clamp for it just to be safe

The finned version will fit, I use finned 1515 in mine. That picture does show the dust cover. What clamp are you talking about? If you are talking the rc-monster heatsink clamp; it won't fit. It only works on 36mm motors, Neus are 39mm smooth or 44mm finned.

oh right. because i was originally gonna get the Tekno-rc edition Neu 1515/1y which has the latest design to stop the endbell from popping out. but i think i've since decided to go with a 1521/1.5D for the extra power but it doesnt have the latest endbell design so i wanted to get the rc-monster clamp to make sure it all stayed together

I think all of the new Neus have screws in the endbell, they won't come off. Even the older ones have had little to no problems with endbells popping off.
