Me myself i cant wait untill these X0-1's get in normal everyday peoples hands PLEASE post first runs on youtube!!!hahaa

OOOHH SHAT BOYZ!Guess what im doing... im building a new ofna dm-1 spec e to race the X0-1's.google dm-1 spec e i dare you!and i have 26 days to do it.what makes the X0-1's so deadly for on road racing is acceleration period.im gonna use impenema sliks 45 shore in the front and impenema slik 65 shore the rear. solid center spool 46/30 gearing should keep me right along side traxxas's new shark and then ....let the best batteries win.

HUH, you would need 35 shore Ipanema's, unless you decide to use tire warmers.

A lot... we buy directly from Infineon, and still can't get enough.

Looks like we used about 420K last month.

asphalt temps in miami are 140 degrees on a bad day sir. tore off 35 shore mid run.

I use to live in Ft Lauderdale/Sunrise area. I know the heat. It's nothing compared to Houston summers. I use the 35 shore in dragracing in the hot temps. It's the only advantage you will have in acceleration. If you tore them up, you will need to look at your setup. I never tore mine up.

I have another question.
-Can a Castle Creation MMM handle "Traxxas Big Block Brushless (1650 Kv)
motor" on 6s battery pack?









P.s but the real questions is who will go faster than 100mph(maybe 150 mph) :diablo:

I can't see why not. I run my CC 1717s on MMMs. Granted the new motor is a little different (and higher KV) but it shouldn't have a problem handling it.

Definitely buying one if anything to try out some of the new goodies...

mabe i ripped them because my rear is spooled

probably just a fluke

I have a few clients who might be able to help. Send me an e-mail (lbatista@bluecomponents.net) with your target price.

I just can't stop thinking about that stupid limiter :diablo:

There are plenty of Traxxas RCs that are capable of insane speeds, and none of them handle like this new car should (can't say for sure as I've never driven one). I had a 3.3 4-Tec and that thing handled like a brick and the brakes felt like they were made out of cheese. VXL Rustlers will do over 70 MPH with gears and a 3s lipo, and Rustlers are very twitchy at speed unless you put some work into them. Brushless E-Maxxes are just a horrible accident waiting to happen, but again you have to buy batteries and change gearing in order to "unlock" them. The only one I've mentioned that didn't need "unlocked" by upgrading batteries and/or gearing is the 4-Tec, which has been around for ages and keeps getting more and more power but how many terrible accidents do you hear about with those?

So my idea is this: eliminate the limiter and package the car with 4s rather than 6s. You will have to buy bigger packs to get the maximum speed as with all their other electric trucks, but the average idiot is more likely to drive it on 4s at least until their new packs come in and they will have a better feel for it than someone that drops a bunch of money on a car and pulls the trigger. If it'll do 100 on 6s then it should still do 50-60 on 4s, right? That's fast/slow enough they wouldn't really even need to touch the gearing. Surely my insignificant opinion won't mean a damn thing but hey, at least nobody is forcing me to buy one :whistle:

Amen!

Not really seeing why everyone is so wound up about the limited speed?

I think the i phone interface is very cool, and will buy either a i phone or i touch to use with this car. Being able to adjust everything on the fly and have telemetry is just too good to pass up. And it is all user customizable too. Spend another 100 bucks or so on the i product, already spending 800 plus on the car.

My main issue is the 25c lipos... Maybe traxxas is rating them conservatively? I guess if they are using them to get 100mph out of the car then they are fine. I would like to see some performance tests with these lipos.

Which brings up another question: Will this version of the MMM have data logging like the MMXL does?
