I was going to call you guys "end users", but I thought that was going WAYY too far! I don't need drive-by's at my house! :lol:

What happened to the Lehner motor specs in the calculator Brian?

I took them out because Mike no longer has them and the list was getting kinda long for something fewer people have. Actually, they are still there, just commented out. I suppose I could add them back in but put them at the bottom of the select list...

Great program love it and use it alot, the Emaxx 3905 and new erevo come with 32p 68t stock spur and you have everyone but that one as far as I can tell, any chance of popping that in there next time you get a cravin to update ?

Done. Also re-added the LMT motors, but they are at the bottom of the list now...

Brian re Buggy / Truggy / Truck comment it was in the brushless motor selector item.

You have a field for "Enter approximate vehicle weight (?): " I was thinkink that this could have drop downs based on typical weights for a Buggy / Truggy / Truck... I guess 8 / 10/ 12 lbs?

PS HP Pro in "Enter Front/Rear Differential Gear Ratio " is Hot Bodies LSP and could move into HPI...

Great series of updates! Buy yourself a pizza! ;)

Gotcha! But, I don't think I'm going to add that just yet. The weights of the vehicles varies a lot and I think it would be easier to just enter a number in that field.

Someone submitted "HP Pro" to me a while back and had no idea what it was. I don't follow the vehicle names as closely as most of you guys do. :smile: Anyway, I renamed it and moved it to a newly created "Hot Bodies" heading. BTW: Don't enter "hotbodies.com" while at work. It's "hotbodiesonline.com". I really should have known better. :oops:

Thanks! Can I buy myself Subway instead? I like that better...

Also fixed a bug in the wiring page when using FireFox that someone over at the Traxxas forums found.

hahaha, just like trying to go to Dicks sporting goods..

Silicone Oil Mixture Calculator
This calculator is based on the code from http://www.gesilicones.com/gesilwiza...ng/fluid2.html.
Viscosity of Fluid A 45
Viscosity of Fluid B 30
Target Mixture Viscosity 60

Mixing Percentages
Fluid A 171%
Fluid B -71%


I know non a valid scenario but you could have validation on input that Fluid A >= Target >= B or B >= Target >= A.

Temperature Calculation - Any thought of adding Kelvin?

Two Speed Gear Mesh Calculator - Might want to add a note that this is for Mod 1 gears

Thanks all

Arct1k, are you trying to find work for me to do? :wink:

Fluid calc: Good idea. Didn't change it too much from the original aside from visuals. Might add that feature.

Temp Calc: I think C and F are good enough. Who (besides you apparently) uses Kelvin when measuring temps? :wink:

Two-speed mesh calc: Why does it matter what pitch it is? I know the code is technically using Mod1 to get the gear diameters, but the ratio is what matters. The only reason Mod1 is currently used is because I was going to add shaft-to-shaft distance, but decided not to, and didn't feel like changing the mesh code again.

Medusa motors run 60k max rpm not 40k.
:D

Fluid calc: NP

Temp Calc: Well Kelvin did... and it is rather cool ;) Not seen too many people measure distance in rods either

Two-speed: Hmm yes - its all relative...

:SIGH: I suppose I can add Kelvin. :sarcastic:

Added the extra oil mixture validation.

Added the CRT diff ratio.

The fix for the erroneous 40k rpm warning for the Medusa motor was a little different. The 60k rpm limit was entered correctly for that motor, but my warning system was using the old drop-down list method, so it was actually giving you the rpm limit of a whole different motor. Fixed now. :smile:
