HV thermaling!!!
 
Ok i have my HV
I have 12pinion 70 spur setup as Novak suggested on theri web
but after like a 15min run it thermals
is it the hot weather here at California????
cuz i usually get 35min out of my gp3300 7cells

Is the truck running like it ussaully does? My brothers started thremoing. His brakes quit working right to. Something messed up in the system.

Sounds like the best thing for you to do, is send it to Novak.

My bro got smart and bought an 8l feigao from mike. Went to the bk controller. Had alot more power.

Shadow350Z 07.22.2005 02:47 AM

I personally would contact Novak with this issue. you have got the pinion/spur meshed right?

Shadow350Z 07.22.2005 03:10 AM

yeah
but i think its jus the weather here in CA
12pinion and 70spur jus as Novak suggested
when i first got the HV and ran it it wasnt hot
it was like in the 85-90s and it ran 35min or even more with the gp3300 7cells
now its freakin HOT!!!
triple digits
100-110 degrees

110 is absurd hot.. That is the main reason for your HV to thermal.. (i would thermal if i had to run around at 30 mph with those temps..) When you buy brushless, you should be living on the northpole.. (should be a disclaimer.. ;) )

Shadow350Z 07.22.2005 03:30 AM

Hahaha
Imagine playing tennis and basketball and running in that heat!!
I play tennis and basketball and run everyday
especially in the summer
i should get a 72spur to use espcially jus for the summer
think that stop the thermaling?

It is likely, though it might even get hotter as well.. (weird but true) try it, and you'll know.

I use stock gearing in the uk, on 12 cells without thermalling, must be just the climet, also have u cut out holes in the windscream, i found this helped with the motor temp.

windscream???
