new rc18t! which bl setup
buying this rc18t after looking through the "toughest 1/18" thread it made me want another one!
http://www.rctech.net/forum/showthre...ighlight=rc18t there are a couple things that will need to be done to it (brushless) but for 150 i figured it was a good deal that i shouldnt pass up. im going to leave this truck the way it is for a while untill i get the money to BL it. i want it to have a nice setup (neu quark probably) i figure i will go 2s lipo or get an 7 cell batt for it. what would be a good neu for this size application? i figure one of these is the one i need http://www.neumotors.com/20061222/1100_series.html let me know what you guys think of the truck and everything! thanks! |

I am thinking about tricking out my 18 here is my plan neu 1515/2y http://www.atlantahobby.com/shopexd.asp?id=6776 hyperion yc-22L long can, the long can allows you to gear up without too much heat http://b-p-p.com/proddetail.php?prod=de_YC22L esc-CC Micro Mamba Pro, it can handle 4s http://b-p-p.com/proddetail.php?prod=eb_micropro 4s Flightpower pack http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...?&I=LXRVY7&P=7 this system would rock.......:yes: |

yeah 1515 in an 18th, now that i want to see. main thing is the battery. Too long, and high. |
looking at your stuff in more depth how will the neu work when being put up to 4s. usually you dont use a 5k motor with voltages that high but maybe its different with smaller trucks?
or are you just going to insane speed? id think a 2s pack would be right for a basher that gets the motor in around 39k range. |
I run the 3s 1500 in my 18 and the 4s is 2mm longer and about 7mm higher, you could use longer fasteners in the plastic dowel for the battery hold down...I could make it work, I have used the hyperion short can before on 3s and it lasted a lot longer than the Mamba ever did...and the 1515 was a mistake...the 1105 is plenty.....lol

you will have one crazy fast 18.
do you guys think its a good deal? the guy is sort of acting like a jerk after i asked him some questions and now im wondering if i should deal withh him. |

ya..... thats my problem. once the guy turns into an ass it kinda turns me off his product....
hmm. |
I am looking to upgrade my vendetta motor from a Hyperion 4400kv (long can) and was wondering what size Neu would fit. Also are the smaller Neus more efficient and do they have more torque than the hyperions because my Hyperion is running a little warmer than i would like. thanks

t-maxxracer32,
The 1105 2y is a great motor on 2s. I have geared up my RC18r with a 19t pinion and the motor never gets more than slightly warm. On 3s, you'll have more speed than you can handle before you can even think of gearing up and the motor is fairly warm after running a 1500 mah pack. On 4s, I doubt you can keep the car on it's wheels long enough to heat up the motor unless you simply do four-wheel burnouts on a slippery surface which is pretty much pointless. |
haha ya this will be a bashing, fun truck to just mess around with.
first i need to buy one. not sure how im going to do it now. (buy brand new.... buy used....) |
