Before you go paying a wad of money for something that IMO is overpriced. Check out what Lucien has to offer over at http://www.innov8tivedesigns.com/ind...cPath=21_25_38
I'm not sure what length you're looking for, but he has some things that you might be interested in.
I have a 3032-12 that should be here by Thursday. I'm going to test it in my E maxx Direct Drive setup. But soon, I will be doing an E Revo Direct Drive to Diff with a motor similiar to this. The E Revo will probably have to wait on his 40mm motors, which are supposed to be out next month.  |
Yes, I think the 40mm can would be a better choice, more torque. I like the ring bearing idea, should provide more support for the rear of the can. His prices are good, I will wait on some spec for the 40mm cans and maybe try one out.
No pics yet on the slipper, just ideas in my head. if you are familiar with how the revo slipper works, my idea was to setup each end of the motor shaft with the crosspin hole and a threaded portion for the slipper lock nut. That would allow the main portion of the slipper to mount to the motor. I would then have to come up with some sort of adapter to replace the spur gear. This would have a 5mm (or whatever size needed) extension on it to mount a drive cup to. My only problem is trying to keep the overall length to minimum, and a method to access the slipper adjustment nut. At the moment my adapter looks like a hat that will sit over the end of the slipper nut and mount to the slipper hub with the three screws that usually hold the spur gear. Only problem is that hat covers the nut, requiring removal to adjust the slipper. I could make legs that mount to the slipper and thus leave some room to get a small wrench to the nut, but I think that there would not be enough space b/t the legs to access the nut. I think it would be pretty good having two slippers, as one could be adjusted to give more slip (rear) to aid in cornering traction, etc...
